CLOSED FOR APPLICATIONS - At this moment the Water Technology research group have an opening for a student to help us to optimise our small-scale Reverse Osmosis filtration unit. We would like a student to work on optimising this unit by adjusting feed flows, concentrations and operational parameters and drawing conclusions on the best operating conditions. The results of this internship will help the research group immensely as a well performing lab-scale RO unit can be used in various research projects.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, independent and hands-on student. It would help if the student has a background in chemistry / physics / water treatment technologies. However a willingness to learn would also be sufficient.
This assignment is suitable as an internship. Please contact Emma McAteer for more information. +
Rhodomonas is a cryptophyte species, which exploits phycoerythrin 545 (PE545) as the primary light-harvesting antenna. In this project Rhodomonas will be cultivated under different light wavelength and intensities in order to investigate the changes in phycoerythrin composition.

De betrokkenheid van Rijkswaterstaat in de projecten Robuust Watersysteem +
CLOSED FOR APPLICATIONS - The Province of Zeeland and HZ University of Applied Sciences, were two of many stakeholders that worked together in the past years on the topic of the Robust Water System in Zeeland, specifically Zeeuws Vlaanderen. Next year, the Province of Zeeland would like to continue with this project, with a focus on the future and how robust our local water system really is. For this project, the following steps have been highlighted:
We need to sketch an outline of the future of our Robust Water System to determine how future-proof it really is. This requires:
- The map of the region should be updated as if all described project possibilities have already been executed (therefore all project details need to be strengthened.
- In parallel, the criteria for robustness are set so that we can test the “future“ map against these criteria.
- Lastly, determine which gaps still exist in relation to our ambitions and jointly define what is still required (and by when) to complete the desired picture
This project is suitable for native Dutch students only. For more information on this project please contact Hans Cappon or Emma McAteer. +
Fresh water availability, supply and buffering in a saline environment, with increasing fresh water stress.
Low coastal areas like the Netherlands and Belgium experience salt water intrusion and therefore limited sources of fresh water. In the south-western region of the Netherlands fresh water is obtained from the Biesbosch basins, which are located at least 100 km from the consumers. These consumers are industry, households and agriculture/livestock. With increasing fluctuations in precipitation and (likely) sea level rise, this fresh water stress is very likely to increase in the (near) future. In order to decrease the dependence on remote fresh water sources, and thus increase local resilience, precipitation should be better collected and preserved, instead of immediate discharge to the (saline) sea, which is currently done to prevent flooding. Integrating fresh water storage and supply with spatial planning, while maintaining or even upgrading the water quality, benefitting all stakeholders is the challenge for current and future delta developments.
Project Robust Water System aims to increase the resilience of the Zeeuws-Vlaanderen region by incorporating water multi-sourcing and ‘fit for use’ strategies. These strategies require close collaborations with stakeholders (end-users, government, research). Water sources are expanded towards Belgian polder run-off, municipal WWTP effluent, Dow WWTP effluent and rainwater. Agriculture is using polder run-off and potable water but do experience fresh water scarcity during periods of severe drought. Nature areas suffer from drought periods – overall there is a lack of salt nature. +
Definities Robuust watersysteem +
De beschikbaarheid van zoet water in Zeeland is beperkt, daarom is er vanaf 2010 samen met 17 partijen aan oplossingen gewerkt. De partijen hebben een concept dat het Robuust Watersysteem is genoemd; een watersysteem dat voorsorteert op toekomstige ontwikkelingen, functies met elkaar verbindt en tevens beleidsdoelstellingen dichterbij brengt. Dit project is een continu proces met mogelijkheden voor verder onderzoek in kleinere sub-projecten en studentopdrachten. +
De maatregelen tegen het coronavirus hebben een ongekend grote impact op bedrijven in het toerisme en vrijetijdsdomein. Om de gevolgen van alle maatregelen in beeld te brengen hebben Toeristisch Ondernemend Zeeland (TOZ), HZ Kenniscentrum Kusttoerisme en Economische Impuls Zeeland onderzoek gedaan naar de economische impact van de coronacrisis op het toerisme in Zeeland. +
Project Rondje Otheense Kreek +
In December 2013, Northern Zealand in Denmark was hit by the storm “Xaver” and the water level rose by 2 meters above normal levels. The area around Roskilde Fjord, Jyllinge Nordmark, was flooded and affected approximately 250 households. 1½ year after the event, a number of these households were not yet rebuilt and the affected people were still living in temporary housing-containers.
By applying the MLS concept at Jyllinge Nordmark, this pilot will examine wherein the recovery process the complications that hindered the progression occurred. The final goal is to streamline the recovery process should future major flood events occur. +

In het pilotproject SAAM& wordt gewerkt aan het in co-creatie met publieke en private partijen, in het bijzonder bewoners, ontwikkelen en testen van een passende aanpak voor, en een visie op, het afstemmen van vraag en aanbod rondom wonen en zorg in relatie tot een prettige woon-, werk-, en leefomgeving. Hoe houden we op lokaal niveau een prettige en leefbare omgeving met voldoende ondersteuningsstructuur? Een aanpak & visie om wonen en zorg heel lokaal (en regionaal afgestemd) en toekomstgericht te kunnen organiseren in een dorp. +
The SAIL overall objective is to stimulate active ageing and longer independent living by identifying new ways of helping people remain independent for longer, more self-reliant and less dependent on traditional health care and social care services. +
SAIL, een acroniem voor Stay Active and Independent for Longer, is een Interreg 2 Zeeën project, een Europees samenwerkingsprogramma om innovatie, kennis, onderzoek en duurzaamheid te bevorderen. Elf partners uit Nederland, België, Frankrijk en het Verenigd Koninkrijk werken samen aan tien pilots die het langer actief en zelfstandig blijven van ouderen in de kustregio’s moet bevorderen. +
