    High temperature heat pumps will reduce CO2 emissions and lower energy use

    by Khalid Hamid 29 November 2022

    Some industries require temperatures of between 100 and 180 degrees. A high temperature heat pump is able to deliver this, so it has great commercial potential. The reduction of climate gas emissions is a global challenge for todays and future generations to minimize the impact…

    Battery testing: developing a new computational tool to reduce experiments

    by Mahshid Nejati Amiri 5 September 2022

    Battery behavior is best studied through experiments. However, time-consuming cycling tests are required to ensure that a specific battery design will perform well over its entire life. I aim to develop a new computational tool for long-term battery testing. My PhD project aims to develop…

    European plaice: a new food source in Norway?

    by Sophie Kendler 27 June 2022

    Many of you might think why European plaice (Rødspette) should be regarded as a new food source since this fish is quite common in Norway and not mysterious as other unexplored species. In fact, plaice inhabits most areas along the Norwegian coastline, reaching from the Skagerrak in the South up to the Barents Sea in the North,…

    We need to find more efficient ways to recycle metals

    by Pauline Zimmermann 30 May 2022

    Metals are less available than before, and a lot of them come from geopolitically critical areas. I investigate a way to make metal production more sustainable, through recycling. We have been facing the limits of growth for a long time, and that strongly affects the…
