Electro-motion for the sustainable recovery of high-value nutrients from waste water (E-motion)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2016, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2021,

Current water treatment technologies are mainly aimed to improve the quality of water. High-value nutrients, like nitrate and phosphate ions, often remain present in waste streams. Electro-driven separation processes offer a sustainable way to recover these nutrients. Ion-selective polymer membranes are a strong candidate to achieve selectivity in such processes.The aim of E-motion is to chemicall ...

From bond breaking to material failure in soft polymer networks (SOFTBREAK)

Date du début: 1 juin 2016, Date de fin: 31 mai 2021,

The microscopic mechanisms that lead to mechanical failure of soft polymer materials are still poorly understood. The main reason for this is a lack of experimental tools to prepare well-controlled model systems and to observe the failure process in real time at the microscopic scale. Here, I propose to fill this gap by taking a multidisciplinary approach that combines innovative chemical tools wi ...
