'Dewatering' of biomaterials consuming far less energyThe biobased materials that wil be used in industry more and more, have a major disadvantage: they mainly consist of water. Evaporating seems the most simple remedy, but this is very energy-inefficient: typically something you would like to avoid when making processes more sustainable. There are, however, other options that are driven by electricity and don’t have the need of warming the full volume of the material. Examples are hydrogels and membranes. The project ELECTRIFIED, the University of Twente together with four other universities and eight companies, will explore these ‘electric dewatering’ technology. They expect to reach a decrease in energy consumption of 50 to 90 percent.Read more
Critical assessment of prediction models neededThousands of prediction models are created each year, but only a fraction of these are applied in clinical practice. UT PhD candidate Tom Hueting examined which criteria prediction models must meet and how they are applied in breast and prostate cancer.Read more
