Team of TU Delft researchers has been optimizing the structure of car battery electrodes. Read the full story in the publication in Cell Reports Physical Science. “A phase inversion strategy for low-tortuosity and ultrahigh-mass-loading nickel-rich layered oxide electrodes”

What determines the cycle life of batteries? And, more importantly, how can we extend it? An international research team led by TU Delft has discovered that local disorder in the oxide cathode material increases the number of times Li-ion batteries can be charged and discharged. Their results have been published in Nature.

At Wednesday 24th of April TU Delft hosted a meeting for Director General Rafael Grossi of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), students and others interested in the nuclear sector.

From Monday 15 to Thursday 18 April 2024, the follow-up Integrated Safety Assessment of Research Reactors (INSARR) mission was conducted at TU Delft Reactor Institute.

Delft researchers are developing batteries that can charge faster, offer more stable storage and are made from sustainable materials that are widely available. In doing so, they offer a cheaper alternative to lithium-ion batteries that consist of rare materials and have a high CO2 footprint.

TU Delft leads HEAT4ENERGY, a European consortium, dedicated to develop thermomagnetic devices and novel materials to harvest heat from data centres, food, pulp and paper industries and convert this waste heat to electricity. This project ticks all the boxes: energy transition, decarbonising, low and high power devices for conversion of waste heat to electricity, energy storage, finding alternatives for critical raw materials, developing new materials and most important of all: training of a next generation of European experts.

TU Delft Reactor Institute's, part of TU Delft Applied Sciences’ research reactor got a new exterior a few years ago. What cannot be seen from the outside: the inside has now also received a unique covering: the nuclide chart.
