Ook Nederland kent prikkels voor hergebruik van water
No full text"Je zou het niet denken in Nederland, maar ook hier zijn prikkels voor her- en meervoudig gebruik van water. Denk aan droge gebieden, zoals Zeeuws-Vlaanderen, met vrijwel uitsluitend brak water. In Terneuzen werkt Evides Industriewater in een speciale waterfabriek gezuiverd afvalwater verder op met behulp van membraanfiltratie ten behoeve van chemiebedrijf DOW Benelux, zodat het daarna is te gebruiken voor hoogwaardige toepassingen. Door deze ketensluiting is het niet nodig water te onttrekken uit het oppervlaktewater in de regio, dat overwegend zout of brak is", zegt prof dr. ir. Jules van Lier, hoogleraar afvalwaterzuivering aan de TU Delft.Water ManagementCivil Engineering and Geoscience
Afbraak zonder zuurstof, win-win-win
No full textNet als huishoudens hebben bedrijven door de eeuwen heen allerlei afvalstoffen geloosd en het water vervuild. De industrie gebruikt veel water van een heel scala aan kwaliteiten, van ultrapuur tot licht verontreinigd, brak of zelfs zout. Tegenwoordig wordt een groot gedeelte van het gebruikte water gezuiverd en hergebruikt. Maar dit is niet altijd het geval. Soms is bij de huidige stand van techniek of investeringen zuiveren geen optie en moet het gebruikte water worden geloosd. Dit industrieel afvalwater is een mix van diverse stromen, vaak met hoge concentratie aan specifieke stoffen en zouten. De invoering van de Wet Verontreiniging Oppervlaktewateren heeft voor veel innovaties op zuiveringsgebied gezorgd, om ook uit dit afvalwater nog bruikbaar water en stoffen te halen.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Sanitary Engineerin

An Interview with APPLE Lecture Guest Speaker Professor Leo van Lier
No full textOn February 10, 2012, the TESOL/AL Web Journal (represented by Catherine Box, Farah Akbar, and Nancy Boblett) had the pleasure of sitting down with Professor Leo van Lier, guest speaker for the 2012 APPLE Lecture Series. He was kind to take the time to answer our questions pertaining to the tremendous breadth and depth of his work: sociocultural theory and ecological approaches to language learning, scaffolding in the classroom, action-based research, and technology-assisted language learning. Leo van Lier is professor of educational linguistics in the Graduate School of Translation, Interpretation, and Language Education at the Monterey Institute of International Studies. He is the author of several books, including Scaffolding the academic success of adolescent English language learners (2010, with Aída Walqui); The ecology and semiotics of language learning (2004); Interaction in the language curriculum (1996); Introducing language awareness (1995); and The classroom and the language learner (1988). He has published numerous book chapters and articles in journals such as TESOL Quarterly, Applied Linguistics, International Journal of the Sociology of Language, The English Language Teaching Journal, Language Awareness, Le Français dans le Monde, Signos, and Applied Language Learning. Professor van Lier is the Editor-in-Chief of The Modern Language Journal and is also on the editorial boards of a number of different journals. He is co-editor of the book series Educational Linguistics for Springer Publishers

Fragmenten van twee onbekende prognosticaties in het archief van de Abdij van Averbode
No full textThe archives of the abbey of Averbode hold an item that turns out to be a combination of fragments of two published prognostications in Dutch, for the years 1512 and 1513, now folded together. The reason why the two editions where combined is unclear.
The prognostication for 1512, only half of which has survived, was printed in Antwerp by Henrick Eckert van Homberch, who is known from a counterfeit edition of a prognostication by Laet, but not from any other editions of similar works by others. The anonymous author of the 1512 prognostication uses a lunar calendar and refers to dates by the relevant saint’s feasts. Soon after, the latter feature was adopted also by others, including Laet.
The second prognostication, for 1513, which has also been incompletely preserved, is authored by the Antwerp municipal surgeon Hendrik (or Heijnrick) van den Eynde van Lier, also known as Afineus, Afinius or Henry de Fine. He was born ca.1470 in Lier and studied medicine at Leuven as a mature student. As municipal surgeon it was his duty to inspect the Antwerp leprosery. In 1517 he graduated with a doctoral degree in medicine, astronomy and metaphysics. He was acquainted with Erasmus, who urged him to continue with the study of Greek, but he died relatively young in 1519. Apart from the newly discovered prognostication for 1513 written in Dutch, there is also a surviving copy of a prognostication for 1517 in French.
Van den Eynde must have published several more and have built up a reputation for his prognostications, because even after his death more prognostications attributed to him were published in French, including one for the year 1524 that has until now been overlooked in the bibliographical catalogues

Pressure oxidation of silverbearing refractory auriferous concentrates in acidic sulfate and sulfate-iodide media
No full textIn this thesis work prevention of the formation of silver jarosite during pressure oxidation of two different refractory sulfide flotation concentrates was examined. The innovative concept investigated was the introduction of potassium iodide to the autoclave. The presence of KI in the autoclave shifts precipitation to (potassium) jarosite, while silver is readily precipitated as AgI (iodargyrite) in the acidic sulfate-iodide medium. In this way, it was possible to achieve 97+% silver recoveries from autoclave residue in the subsequent cyanidation process.Civil Engineering and GeosciencesMining and Petroleum EngineeringRaw Materials Technolog
Anaerobic membrane bio-reactors for severe industrial effluents and urban spill waters: The AMBROSIUS project
No full textWith growing application experiences from aerobic membrane bioreactors, combination of membrane and anaerobic processes become more and more attractive and feasible. In anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs), biomass and particulate organic matter are physically retained inside the reactor, providing optimal conditions for organic matter degradation. AnMBRs offer high quality effluents free of solids and complete retention of biomass, regardless its settling and/or granulation properties. Therefore, this technology may present an attractive option for treating industrial wastewaters and/or slurries at extreme conditions, such as high salinity, high temperature, high concentrations of suspended solids (SS), high lipid concentrations and presence of toxicity, that hamper granulation and biomass retention or reduce the biological activity (van Lier et al., 2001).Water ManagementCivil Engineering and Geoscience
