Pauline Zimmermann shown on the left, started her PhD this autumn. In her PhD, she will investigate to what extent undesired ions in wastewater from industrial processes can be removed by use of electrodialysis by combining cation and anion exchange membranes. She ...

Our article entitled Equation of state and force fields for Feynman–Hibbs-corrected Mie fluids. I. Application to pure helium, neon, hydrogen, and deuterium has just been published in the Journal of Chemical Physics. Liquefaction of hydrogen is a promising method for large-scale transport and distribution ...

Magnus Aa. Gjennestad, shown in the picture below, wants to understand how to more accurately describe multi-phase flow in porous media as well as their thermodynamic properties. Fluids in porous media can exist in a diverse set of heterogeneous structures such as ...

The 24th of April, we were so fortunate to have visitors from the University of Lorraine in France, Prof. Jean Noël Jaubert and Ass. Prof. Silvia Lasala. In a seminar, they shared with us new insight on their recent research and progress on consistent alpha-correlations ...

Our article entitled Minimum entropy generation in a heat exchanger in the cryogenic part of the hydrogen liquefaction process: On the validity of equipartition and disappearance of the highway has just been accepted for publication in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy. In the ...

This week, I was travelling to Prague in the Check Republic to the 15th Cryogenics conference together with two of my colleagues from SINTEF, Stian Trædal and David Berstad. Me and David were both presenting recent progress on technology related to liquefaction of hydrogen. ...

Vilde Bråten started her PhD in the autumn of 2018. In her PhD, she will bring new insight on the thermodynamics of nano-systems. It is well known that the thermodynamics of nano-systems differs from bulk-behavior, and this is often referred to as ...

Our article entitled Energy efficient design of membranes processes by use of entropy production minimization has just been accepted for publication in Computers & Chemical Engineering. In the paper, we discuss how to develop more energy efficient membrane separation processes by use of entropy ...

Our article entitled Tolman lengths and rigidity constants of multicomponent fluids: Fundamental theory and numerical examples has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Chemical Physics. The paper was very positively received by the reviewers and was chosen to be Editors pick in ...
