Transitioning towards food systems favourable for both human health and environmental sustainability has been recently identified as an immediate challenge. In this context, a significant increase in consumption of plant-based foods (e.g. cereals, fruits, legumes, nuts, vegetables) is being strongly promoted to improve health and environmental benefits. Consequently, the development of safe and nutritious food products from ...
The research concentrates on improving existing wind farm parameterization in the regional climate model COSMO-CLM, allowing for wind farm optimization and control. Calibration of model parameters will be done based on results from large eddy model simulation available from TFSO. COSMO-CLM is a non-hydrostatic mesoscale model and in this project, it will be used to study the interaction between large wind farm clusters and mesoscale weather ...
The objective of the proposed POTENTIAL project was to increase N and water use efficiency in potato by co-scheduling of N and irrigation water. Special attention is paid to the spatio-temporal variation in water and N deficit in potato fields. To meet this objective innovative sensing solutions were used such as drones, satellites and geophysical soil scanners.
During the POTENTIAL project, between 2017 and 2019, 11 experimental ...
The current routes for EOL “complex”-composite products are mainly focusing on:
burning or converting into RDF pellets (Refuse Driven Fuel). The energy content and presence of a fusible fraction (carrier and possibly also coating) explain why this waste disposal method is widely spread.
another commenly used route is mechanical reductuin via shredders and use as a filler.
Objectives of the ...
Colorectal cancer is a serious heath problem in industrialized countries. Worldwide it is the second most common cancer in women and the third in men. Approximately 35% of these tumors originated in the rectum. There are several treatment strategies for rectal cancer, depending on the location and the stage of the tumor. Since amny years, low anterior resection (LAR) of the rectum with total mesorectal excision (TME) is the gold standard for ...
