Renske Gelderloos and Mukund Gupta both receive funding to investigate climate effects in the Arctic. Glaciers and sea ice are rapidly receding, affecting ocean currents. The effect of the melting ice on the ocean and viceversa has impact on climate and sea level rise.

Sanne Smith aims to remove PFAS in existing water purification systems. Foam plays an important role in her attempts to remove as much PFAS as possible from the wastewater. PFAS molecules bind to air bubbles and hitch a ride towards the surface and end up in the foam.

🚰 Dutch drinking water is among the cleanest in the world. To keep it that way, Kim Lompe is developing treatment technologies to remove new contaminants such as #nanoplastics and #PFAS.
By using new materials, Kim can corner and capture the pesky pollutants.

Drinking water How do we prevent drinking water shortages in the Netherlands? Neelke Doorn and Doris van Halem share their insights on purification, storage and the ethics of water use.

“The most important thing is that we decouple our drinking water system from the whims of nature”, says Doris van Halem, Professor Drinking Water Quality & Treatment @tudelftwm.bsky.social
Read this double interview,
together with Neelke Doorn, Professor Ethics of Water Engineering.

High temperatures today and we’ve already had a long period of drought. Drinking water always seemed completely self-evident in NL. But it’s not.
Although the Dutch focus has traditionally been on how to keep water out, we need to focus more on storing water.
