WORKSHOP 3

Mathematical Modelling for Resource Recovery: A Critical Synergy

Workshop chairs:
David Fernandes del Pozo (Ghent University), Saba Daneshgar (Ghent University), Paula Carrera (Ghent University)

Workshop lecturers:
Celine Vaneeckhaute (Université Laval), M. C. M. Van Loosdrecht (TU Delft), Xavier Flores-Alsina (Denmark Technical University), Fabio Poelesel (DHI), Daniel Bencsik (DYNAMITA), Damien Batstone (University of Queensland), Borja Valverde-Pérez (Denmark Technical University)

Event description:
This workshop will assess the current state-of-the-art on mathematical modeling for resource recovery on carbon, nutrients, and other valuable resources. More specifically, it aims to evaluate whether the current models are developed enough to satisfy the requirements of the resource recovery community and if not, what should the main research directions be to focus on. The scope of the workshop covers the state-of-the-art in resource recovery modeling with considerations about their integration in plant-wide models and subsequent sustainability evaluation.
