BioWaVE

​Biochemical Wastewater Valorisation and Engineering

BioWAVE (Biochemical Wastewater Valorisation and Engineering) focuses on the development and application of sustainable technology for the treatment and valorisation of industrial waste streams. The group is active in two areas: industrial water technology and industrial biotechnology.

Cosys-Lab

Co-Design of Cyber-Physical Systems

Cosys-Lab (Co-Design of Cyber-Physical Systems) specialises in developing new sensor techniques for embedded systems, control engineering, and designing energy-efficient mechanisms.

ELCAT

Applied Electrochemistry & Catalysis

ELCAT (Applied Electrochemistry & Catalysis) works on applied electrochemical reactors and catalysts to improve the controllability, flexibility and energy efficiency of reactions.  The group develops innovative batteries and new electrolyzers for the production of green hydrogen, and ELCAT is working on a circular carbon economy by converting CO2 into basic chemicals. 

EMIB

Energy and Materials in Infrastructure and Buildings

EMIB (Energy and Materials in Infrastructure and Buildings) aims to facilitate the transition to a sustainable infrastructure and built environment through its research. On the one hand, it investigates the framework that sustainability must meet (energy efficiency, quality, etc.) in a changing context and, on the other hand, the most efficient way to achieve this.  

IDLab

Internet and Data Lab

 The Internet and Data Lab (IDLab) focuses on challenges faced by industry in achieving digital transformation, connecting everything and extracting high value from data.

iPRACS

Intellingence in Processes, Advanced Catalysts and Solvents

Intelligence in Processes, Advanced Catalysts and Solvents (iPRACS) investigates the circularity of organic materials by translating organic synthesis and catalysis into sustainable and economically viable processes. In this way, new organic materials are developed, plastics are reduced to their building blocks, and new chemical processes are designed.

InViLab

​Industrial Vision Lab

The Industrial Vision Lab (InViLab) develops machine vision techniques that address challenges in industry and society, for example in smart health, pollution monitoring, heritage preservation and sustainable materials. In addition, InViLab conducts defence-oriented research on situational awareness and contributes to smart shipping through camera-based navigation and autonomous inspection systems.

M4S

​Modelling for Sustainability

Our newest research group, Modelling for Sustainability (M4S), uses the latest techniques in artificial intelligence and machine learning for the field of energy and climate.  

SuPAR

​Sustainable Pavements and Asphalt Research

The SuPAR (Sustainable Pavements and Asphalt Research) research group specialises in fundamental and applied research into the improvement of materials, management processes and the design of sustainable roads, including the development and demonstration of innovations such as smart or self-healing roads.
