Aquaculture sludge (uneaten feed and faeces) is nutrient rich and has potential as feed for insects. The aim of this study was to investigate the transfer of chemical and biological contaminants, as well as nutrients, from aquaculture sludge to black soldier fly larvae. The larvae were reared on a sludge...

...a flexible and scalable battery system for maritime transportation, integrating modular converters and hybrid battery technologies that are effectively implemented in real-world scenarios. The proposed system is realized with modular DC-DC converters, which do not require complex design and control or...

...processing and preservation methods. Acid preservation is a well-known method to preserve food, where the aim is to reduce the pH below 4.5 to inhibit microbial growth. To evaluate the effectiveness of acid preservation, a shelf-life experiment was conducted with Saccharina latissima and Alaria esculenta...

State (EoS) relevant for carbon capture and storage modelling have been evaluated for pure CO₂ and CO₂-mixtures with particular focus on the extended corresponding state approach, SPUNG/SRK. Our work continues the search of an EoS which is accurate, consistent and computationally fast for CO₂-mixtures...

...increasingly relying on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to support their operation. This digitalization process introduces new complexity, which requires novel methodologies to assess the reliability of power systems. Currently, co-simulation and Discrete Event Simulation (DES) are the...

...assumptions of the linearity of creative processes and the singularity of ideas in mainstream creativity theory. We draw on the work of Bakhtin and longitudinal research in two contrasting cases: developing hydrocarbon prospects and concepts for films and TV series. From these two cases, we highlight two...

...ship routing and scheduling problems from industrial and tramp shipping and presents a wide range of benchmark instances that have been created to represent realistic planning problems for various shipping segments. Initial results for the benchmark instances are provided both through exact and heuristic...

...acids (LC omega-3 PUFA) are vital for physiological functions and have therapeutic and health benefits. The consumption of LC PUFA in the Western world has been below recommended intake levels the past decades, despite promotion of seafood and omega-3 supplements. Incorporation of the LC PUFA into processed...
