Bijoy Bera

Dr. Bijoy Bera Assistant Professor +31 (0)15 27 81036 B.Bera-1@tudelft.nl Building 58 Van der Maasweg 9 2629 HZ Delft The Netherlands I am interested in the fascinating interfacial phenomena displayed by soft matter and in describing the physics (and physical chemistry) thereof. I focus specifically on interactions between molecules and ions within a (fluid) phase as well as between two (fluid-fluid or fluid-solid) phases. E.g., what are the complex interactions in a very thin film containing polymer molecules? And how do these interactions change when the thin film is on a solid substrate? or, more complicated still, if there is a third fluid (oil, for example) present in this situation? I experimentally investigate these interactions using a wide range of methods such as force spectroscopy, surface modification, microfluidics and subsequently theoretically model these systems for a comprehensive picture. In addition to understanding these interfacial events, I also try to modify/manipulate these interactions using external agents such as electric field or a chemical driver. Many of these phenomena are crucial for a wide range of industrial and medical applications starting from oil and gas industry, to food manufacturing all the way to bio-gluing the injury of a patient in a hospital. Research group Academic background Bijoy Bera studied Mechanical Engineering at bachelor’s and Applied Physics at master’s degree level at University of Alberta, Canada. Then he started his PhD in 2011 at the Physics of Complex Fluids (PCF) group, University of Twente. His PhD research was about wetting transition and thin film stabilities with change of chemical potential. After completing his PhD at the end of 2015, Bijoy worked as a NWO postdoctoral fellow at Institute of Physics, University of Amsterdam between 2016 and 2018. Since 2018 until the summer of 2020, Bijoy worked as a researcher and lecturer at the Wageningen University. +31 (0)15 27 81036 B.Bera-1@tudelft.nl Building 58 Van der Maasweg 9 2629 HZ Delft The Netherlands Keywords Wetting Theory Interaction at Interfaces Microfluidics Google Scholar

Photochromism of rare earth oxyhydrides thin films Multianion compounds offer unprecedented degrees of freedom in the design of functional materials thanks to the broad spectrum of different anion characteristics, such as electronegativity, polarizability, and ionic radii. In this class of materials, rare earth (RE) oxyhydride REO x H 3-2x compounds stand out for their exceptional hydride ion (H-) conductivity and possibly related photochromic effect. Within this project I aim at understanding the yet unclear photochromic mechanism. Such insight will enable a rational optimization of the material and its properties towards the requirements of practical applications in smart windows, sensors and optoelectronic devices.

Hydride-ion (H - ) conduction and solid-state devices Ion conducting devices have many practical applications in batteries, fuel cells, electrolyzers, and more. The hydride ion is particularly interesting because hydride-containing materials (such as oxyhydrides) can be potential candidates for solid-state electrolytes in such devices, leading to the development of new types of energy storage. Within this PhD project, different oxyhydride materials will be investigated to learn about the diffusion pathway of the hydride ion and to create a prototype device.

Melis Duyar

Dr. Melis Duyar | University of Surrey Return to homepage Designing dual function materials for integrated carbon dioxide capture and utilisation Carbon dioxide capture and utilisation (CCU) technologies will play an essential role in decarbonising all sectors to reach a net zero emission future. In particular there is an urgent need to replace fossil derived carbon in the chemical industry as well as in fuels supplied to “hard-to-decarbonise” sectors such as transportation and residential heating. Dual function materials (DFMs) for integrated CCU are materials designed with both adsorbent and catalytic capabilities (hence “dual function”) that can capture and subsequently directly convert dilute streams of CO 2 (from stationary emissions or the atmospheric air) to useful chemicals. In a typical cycle of operation, the DFMs are first exposed to a source of CO 2 to achieve capture, then switched to a stream of co-reactant such as hydrogen or hydrocarbons to achieve the in-situ conversion of captured CO 2 . The chemical transformation of captured CO 2 regenerates the adsorbent while releasing a concentrated stream of desired end product. In combining CO 2 capture and utilisation, DFMs can achieve unique synergies that can improve energy efficiency. For example, exothermic hydrogenations of CO 2 such as the methanation reaction can supply heat that then drives CO 2 on adsorbent sites to spill over to catalytic sites during DFM operation. This allows reaction heat to be directly used in the energy intensive process of sorbent regeneration, while maintaining isothermal conditions to promote CO 2 conversion on catalytic sites. This seminar will discuss approaches to develop novel adsorbent materials for CO 2 capture, catalytic materials for the production of sustainable chemicals and present strategies to effectively combine these approaches to yield an integrated CCU system. A rational design approach based on fundamental understanding of structure-function relationships is needed to accelerate materials discovery for CCU in a diverse set of scenarios, and recent developments in this area will also be presented. Biography Dr. Melis Duyar is Senior Lecturer in the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at the University of Surrey. She has a research background in heterogeneous catalysis for energy and environmental applications. Her current research interests include engineering dynamic catalytic systems for the direct utilization of CO 2 in any emissions source, the catalytic upcycling of plastics waste and the sustainable synthesis and use of ammonia. Dr. Duyar received her B.Sc. (2012) in Chemical and Biological Engineering from Koç University. She obtained her M.S. (2013) and Ph.D. (2015) in Earth and Environmental Engineering from Columbia University and conducted post-doctoral research (2015-2017) in the Chemical Engineering Department at Stanford University. Prior to her appointment at the University of Surrey (2019), she worked at the US Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory as Associate Staff Scientist at the SUNCAT Center for Interface Science and Catalysis and was also Lecturer of Chemical Engineering at Stanford University (2017-2019).

Students Amos Yusuf, Mick Dam & Bas Brouwer winners of Mekel Prize 2024

Master students Amos Yusuf, from the ME faculty (Mick Dam, from the EEMCS faculty and graduate Bas Brouwer have won the Mekel Prize 2024 for the best extra scientific activity at TU Delft: the development of an initiative that brings master students into the classroom teaching sciences to the younger generations. The prize was ceremonially awarded by prof Tim van den Hagen on 13 November after the Van Hasselt Lecture at the Prinsenhof, Delft. They received a statue of Professor Jan Mekel and 1.500,- to spend on their project. Insights into climate change are being openly doubted. Funding for important educational efforts and research are being withdrawn. Short clips – so called “reels” – on Youtube and TikTok threaten to simplify complex political and social problems. AI fakes befuddle what is true and what is not. The voices of science that contribute to those discussion with modesty, careful argument and scepticism, are drowned in noise. This poses a threat for universities like TU Delft, who strive to increase student numbers, who benefit from diverse student populations and aim to pass on their knowledge and scientific virtues to the next generation. It is, therefore, alarming that student enrolments to Bachelor and Master Programs at TU Delft have declined in the past year. Students in front of the class The project is aimed to make the sciences more appealing to the next generation. They have identified the problem that students tend miss out on the opportunity of entering a higher education trajectory in the Beta sciences – because they have a wrong picture of such education. In their mind, they depict it as boring and dry. In his pilot lecture at the Stanislas VMBO in Delft, Amos Yusuf has successfully challenged this image. He shared his enthusiasm for the field of robotics and presented himself as a positive role model to the pupils. And in return the excitement of the high school students is palpable in the videos and pictures from the day. The spark of science fills their eyes. Bas Brouwer Mick Dam are the founders of NUVO – the platform that facilitates the engagement of Master Students in high school education in Delft Their efforts offer TU Delft Master Students a valuable learning moment: By sharing insights from their fields with pupils at high school in an educational setting, our students can find identify their own misunderstandings of their subject, learn to speak in front of non-scientific audiences and peak into education as a work field they themselves might not have considered. An extraordinary commitment According to the Mekel jury, the project scored well on all the criteria (risk mitigation, inclusiveness, transparency and societal relevance). However, it was the extraordinary commitment of Amos who was fully immersed during his Master Project and the efforts of Brouwer and Dam that brought together teaching and research which is integral to academic culture that made the project stand out. About the Mekel Prize The Mekel Prize will be awarded to the most socially responsible research project or extra-scientific activity (e.g. founding of an NGO or organization, an initiative or realization of an event or other impactful project) by an employee or group of employees of TU Delft – projects that showcase in an outstanding fashion that they have been committed from the beginning to relevant moral and societal values and have been aware of and tried to mitigate as much as possible in innovative ways the risks involved in their research. The award recognizes such efforts and wants to encourage the responsible development of science and technology at TU Delft in the future.

New catheter technology promises safer and more efficient treatment of blood vessels

Each year, more than 200 million catheters are used worldwide to treat vascular diseases, including heart disease and artery stenosis. When navigating into blood vessels, friction between the catheter and the vessel wall can cause major complications. With a new innovative catheter technology, Mostafa Atalla and colleagues can change the friction from having grip to completely slippery with the flick of a switch. Their design improves the safety and efficiency of endovascular procedures. The findings have been published in IEEE. Catheter with variable friction The prototype of the new catheter features advanced friction control modules to precisely control the friction between the catheter and the vessel wall. The friction is modulated via ultrasonic vibrations, which overpressure the thin fluid layer. This innovative variable friction technology makes it possible to switch between low friction for smooth navigation through the vessel and high friction for optimal stability during the procedure. In a proof-of-concept, Atalla and his team show that the prototype significantly reduces friction, averaging 60% on rigid surfaces and 11% on soft surfaces. Experiments on animal aortic tissue confirm the promising results of this technology and its potential for medical applications. Fully assembled catheters The researchers tested the prototype during friction experiments on different tissue types. They are also investigating how the technology can be applied to other procedures, such as bowel interventions.

A key solution to grid congestion

On behalf of the TU Delft PowerWeb Institute, researchers Kenneth Brunninx and Simon Tindemans are handing over a Position Paper to the Dutch Parliament on 14 November 2024, with a possible solution to the major grid capacity problems that are increasingly cropping up in the Netherlands. The Netherlands is unlikely to meet the 2030 climate targets, and one of the reasons for this is that large industry cannot switch to electricity fast enough, partly because of increasingly frequent problems around grid capacity and grid congestion. In all likelihood, those problems will actually increase this decade before they can decrease, the researchers argue. The solution offered by the TU Delft PowerWeb Institute researchers is the ‘flexible backstop’. With a flexible backstop, the current capacity of the power grid can be used more efficiently without sacrificing safety or reliability. A flexible backstop is a safety mechanism that automatically and quickly reduces the amount of electricity that an electric unit can draw from the grid (an electric charging station or a heat pump) or deliver (a PV installation). It is a small device connected or built into an electrical unit, such as a charging station or heat pump, that ‘communicates’ with the distribution network operator. In case of extreme stress on the network, the network operator sends a signal to the device to limit the amount of power. Germany recently introduced a similar system with electric charging stations. The backstop would be activated only in periods of acute congestion problems and could help prevent the last resort measure, which is cutting off electricity to users. ‘Upgrading the electricity network remains essential, but in practice it will take years. So there is a need for short-term solutions that can be integrated into long-term planning. We, the members of the TU Delft PowerWeb Institute, call on the government, network operators and regulator to explore the flexible backstop as an additional grid security measure,’ they said. The entire Paper can be read here .

25 year celebration of formal collaboration between Delft University of Technology and the University of Campinas

On 25 October 2024 we celebrated 25 years of formal collaboration between Delft University of Technology and the University of Campinas. What began as a project to exchange some students in chemical engineering has now grown to a multifaceted and broad academic collaboration which accumulated into 24 joint research projects (>20 M Euro); 16 advanced courses and 15 Doctors with a Dual Degree PhD. Patricia Osseweijer, TU Delft Ambassador Brazil explained, “We are proud to show and reflect on this special day the added value we created resulting from our joint activities. The lessons we learned demonstrate that especially continuity of funds and availability for exchanges has contributed to joint motivation and building trust which created strong relations. This is the foundation for academic creativity and high-level achievements.” The program presented showcases of Dual Degree projects; research activities and education. It discussed the future objectives and new fields of attention and agree on the next steps to maintain and strengthen the foundation of strong relations. Telma Franco, Professor UNICAMP shared that “joint education and research has substantially benefitted the students, we see that back in the jobs they landed in,” while UNICAMP’s Professor Gustavo Paim Valenca confirmed that “we are keen to extend our collaboration to more engineering disciplines to contribute jointly to global challenges” Luuk van der Wielen highlighted that “UNICAMP and TU Delft provide valuable complementary expertise as well as infrastructures to accelerate research and innovation. Especially our joint efforts in public private partnerships brings great assets” To ensure our future activities both University Boards have launched a unique joint program for international academic leadership. This unique 7-month program will accommodate 12 young professors, 6 from each university. The programme began on 4 November 2024 in Delft, The Netherlands.
