A significant share of food waste originates in the food services domain and HoReCa sector. Organizational improvements leading to the decrease of food waste and related costs in HoReCa are needed to make progress in this issue. A systems engineering approach was applied to examine the links between...

In 2019, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) made it mandatory to support the electronic clearance of ships entering foreign ports. In preparation, the IMO Facilitation Committee started to develop a reference data model to harmonise the most important standards for ship clearance. The...

This project, to studying the physico-chemical characteristics and weathering properties of IM-5 Wakashio (VLSFO, S <0.50 % m/m), has been funded by Norwegian Coastal Administration (NCA). This is a supplement study to the on-going IMAROS/EU project led by the NCA. The main objective has been to...

This paper presents the results of a computer analysis of the effect of activation process temperature on the development of the microporous structure of activated carbon derived from the leaves of common polypody (Polypodium vulgare) via chemical activation with phosphoric acid (H3PO4) at...

Model-based prediction of vessel response is valuable for planning and execution of marine operations. Response-based operation criteria are expected to give less downtime and cheaper and safer operations than criteria based on wave height and wave period. At least this holds if the response model...

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) serve as an important route of microplastics (MPs) to the environment. Therefore, more effective MPs sampling and detection methodologies, as well as a better understanding of their influence on MPs occurrence and distributions in WWTP effluents, are needed for...

It is well known that flap wavemakers behave in a nonlinear way when either the flap angle or the flap velocity becomes large. Moreover, the hinge depth should be adapted to the period of the generated waves in order to minimize linear evanescent modes, which may contribute to the formation of...
