Biomethane from hydrogen and carbon dioxide
The project BioP2M came to a close in June 2019 after a consortium of stakeholders in the field of energy transition worked together to research the diverse role of Methane. In this report the results are presented and future plans are discussed.

Synthesis, analysis and reduction of 2-nitropropyl starch
The 'AgroCycle' project investigates whether a cooperation of farms can become self-sufficient in energy and fertilization by using manure and organic waste streams for the production of energy, green fuel and green fertilizers by means of anaerobic digestion (AD). In the project, the project partners aim to link the nutrient cycle (from manure to digestate to green fertilizer) to a self-sufficient energy system (biomass to biogas to green fuel for processing the land) through the combined production of biogas and green fertilizers. The financial feasibility of a bio-digester is highly dependent on the use and economic value of the digestate. This combined approach increases both feasibility and sustainability (environmental impacts and CO2 emissions). To explore the feasibility of the aforementioned concept, use is made of the existing 'BioGas simulator' model developed by Hanze UAS to simulate the technical process of decentralized production of biogas and the economic cost.

Animal energy budgets affect the kinetics of xenobiotics
On the basis of a model for energy budgets, which includes the dynamics of stored energy, a model has been proposed for the kinetics of non-metabolized xenobiotic compounds, which may be lipophilic. The surface area coupled uptake is via food and/or water through the aqueous fraction of the animal. The partitioning to non-aqueous structural body mass and to stored materials (i.e. lipids, carbohydrates and proteins) is taken instantaneously. The result is a simple first order kinetics with variable coefficients. The bioconcentration factor has been evaluated. Model predictions have been tested against data from the litera

Flexible, fast and accurate sequence alignment profiling on GPGPU with PaSWAS
To obtain large-scale sequence alignments in a fast and flexible way is an important step in the analyses of next generation sequencing data. Applications based on the Smith-Waterman (SW) algorithm are often either not fast enough, limited to dedicated tasks or not sufficiently accurate due to statistical issues. Current SW implementations that run on graphics hardware do not report the alignment details necessary for further analysis.

Growth curve analysis of sedentary plant parasitic nematodes in relation to plant resistance and tolerance
Growth curve analysis of sedentary plant parasitic nematodes on different hosts and at different population densities is used to assess plant suitability including their resistance and tolerance. The estimated parameters of host suitability can be used in pest management programs for economic important species such as potato cyst nematodes.
