Highlighting Praxis' expertise in advanced composites solar solutions for the harsh marine environment.

Another brick in the wall of knowledge in hydroacoustics.

I am thrilled to share that our latest paper, "Hydrodynamic Insights on Floating Bubbling Fluidized Beds: Dynamic Solutions for Mitigating Gas Maldistribution," has been published. This work is a significant step forward in understanding and improving fluidized bed technologies. I had the privilege of collaborating with Faïçal Larachi and Seyed Mohammad Taghavi on this project. I cannot express enough gratitude to my supervisor, Faïçal Larachi, for his invaluable guidance and support throughout this journey. His expertise and insights have been pivotal in shaping this research. Additionally, I'd like to extend my deepest thanks to my co-supervisor, Seyed Mohammad Taghavi, whose wisdom and encouragement have been instrumental in navigating the complex aspects of our study. This paper delves into the hydrodynamics of floating bubbling fluidized beds and offers dynamic solutions to overcome challenges associated with gas maldistribution. We believe our findings will contribute significantly to the field and pave the way for more efficient and effective applications. I am eager to hear your thoughts and engage in discussions about our research. Feel free to access the paper https://lnkd.in/dKJjQGzs and share your insights. #FluidizedBeds #DIA #PIV #chemicalengineering #Innovation #marineindustry

🌊 Today, we spotlight the Effectiveness of Underwater Venting 🚢 Dive into the innovative strides of the MENENS project, where we're at the forefront of researching safe storage and use of energy carriers. 🌐 TNO has conducted groundbreaking tests on underwater venting of methanol, ushering in a new era of safety and sustainability. Here's a glimpse of what they've discovered: 💡 Alternative to Traditional Venting: While traditional venting poses challenges due to toxic methanol vapours, underwater venting emerges as a promising alternative. Methanol, being essentially non-toxic to aquatic life, dissolves seamlessly in water, addressing safety concerns. 📊 Numerical Analysis & Lab Tests: Extensive numerical analysis showcases the effective absorption of methanol vapours by water. To validate these findings, TNO performed small-scale lab tests with a continuous venting setup (as can be seen in picture). The results are remarkable – up to 99% of the initial methanol concentration was absorbed in the water, well below the accidental exposure limit of 6000 ppm. 🛠️ Insights into Methanol Handling: Through these experiments, TNO gained invaluable insights into handling methanol, measuring its vapours, and understanding the evaporation and condensing properties. We're enthusiastic about sharing our experiences. If you want more information – reach out to Tim Slangen. Join us in revolutionizing maritime safety and sustainability!

🚀 We’re almost there! The final major subsystem of FLORA, the heave plate, is complete! This major component enhances hydrodynamic stability and optimizes energy capture in the Wave Energy Converter. 🌊 Key roles of the heave plate: > Increased stability by boosting resistance to vertical motion, keeping the system steady > Reduce damping effects by limitating oscillations, stabilizing energy extraction and environmental data collection > Optimized energy capture by tuning the system’s natural frequency to maximize wave energy absorption. In summary, the heave plate is vital for ensuring FLORA’s platform efficiency and stability across diverse sea conditions. Exciting times ahead! 🌊🔋 #WaveEnergy #CleanTech #Engineering #Sustainability #OffshoreWind #FloatingOffshoreWind
