In the WoTS seminar program, current topics are explored in more depth. For example, what will the laboratory of the future look like? Saskia Reichelt from TU Dresden explains how the Internet of Things opens the door to the SmartLab of the future.
Photonics makes an essential contribution to solving contemporary and future social problems. During the seminar Photonics: future or an opportunity for now? we discuss how photonics plays a role in the lab and how this will develop in the coming years. The KNCV is organizing a seminar about the recovery of raw materials from (waste) water.
Digitalization, miniaturization and automation are, according to the research group SmartLab systems from the Institute of Natural Materials Technology at the Dresden University of Technology, the three most important keywords to characterize the smart laboratory of the future. The research group focuses on research projects in the field of Internet of Things (IoT), sensor technology, Big Data and automation in the laboratory environment and in the field of biotechnology. Saskia Reichelt will give her lecture on Thursday, October 4 at 1 p.m. in the Croesezaal. Be assured of a place in the hall and sign up now!
It seminar Photonics: future or an opportunity for now? gives an insight into the world of Photonics. Ron van der Kolk from PhotonicsNL gives a presentation about the background of Photonics. Arjen Amelink discusses the application of light in medicine, Lien Smeesters discusses the use of photonics in improving food safety and Shyama Banerjee talk about using photonics for concrete recycling inspection. This seminar will take place on Tuesday, October 2 in the Croesefoyer.
There is currently a shift in (waste)water land from major energy consumers to energy and raw material recovery from the “free” source of wastewater. Jong KNCV is organizing a seminar on this subject on Wednesday, October 3 “The toilet flush: the next big opportunity in resource mining”. Jules Rombouts and Jure Zlopaša from the TU Delft Environmental Biotechnology group discuss the recovery of biopolymers from waste streams. Kees Roest from KWR Watercycle Research Institute speaks about innovative applied research and Sigrid Scherrenberg from Evides discusses the value of wastewater.
