We will study the 3 key properties determining the performance of V2O5/TiO2 based SCR catalysts: i) catalyst-support interactions, ii) the role of the promoters and iii) alkali poisoning using emerging advanced X-ray absorption spectroscopy techniques. Based on this new insight we aim at establishing design principles for the V2O5 /TiO2 system. Based on these principles we will develop new catalyst and evaluate their performance in terms of activity, stability and poisoning resistance.

Patients with short bowel syndrome suffer from weight loss, malnutrition and dehydration, severely affecting their quality of life. Because of the current expensive and laborious treatment, there is a growing interest in improved treatments for these patients. In the current project we aim to further characterize and understand how GLP-1 and GLP-2 in combination, exert their beneficial effects on gut inflammation, growth and nutrient uptake in order to potentially identify new drug targets.

På trods af vandselskabernes milliardinvesteringer i byernes klimatilpasning er der pt ikke meget viden om tiltagenes påvirkning af miljøet. Vores projekt vil udvikle metode til kvantificering af klimatilpasningens miljøpåvirkning. Der vil være særligt fokus på at udvikle metode til afgrænsning af systemet, der analyseres. Herunder vil projektet fx undersøge, hvordan miljøpåvirkning kan sammenstilles med en ændret tilgængelighed af vandressourcen og en ændret oversvømmelsesrisiko.

Growth patterns in early life are important predictors of later risk of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD), particular in low and middle-income countries. Using advanced body composition data from a unique birth cohort of Ethiopian infants, the study aims to identify growth patterns in early life that predispose changes in risk markers of diabetes and CVD at 5 years. This is crucial for early identification of diabetes and CVD risk groups, in order to initiate timely prevention.

As well as transferring power, a grid-connected power converter should be able to adapt its behavior to minimize harmonic emissions which can negatively impact the external grid. Reducing harmonic emissions adds commercial value by increasing power system efficiency and component lifetime, reducing capital investment and assisting in wind farm compliance. This project will investigate how active filter functionality can be incorporated into wind turbine systems to reduce harmonic emissions.

The enzymatic release of glucose from the cellulose fraction in plant materials is hindered by other polysaccharides. In softwood, the largest hindrance is mannan and its degradation is a prerequisite for efficient cellulose hydrolysis. Genome sequencing has provided many new fungal genes in a relatively new mannanase family. These new mannanases will be produced, and characterized with respect to biochemical properties and structure. The performance will be investigated on plant material under

The aim of the proposed study is to develop and provide initial validation of a Pediatric Psoriasis-Related Quality-of-Life Questionnaire (PPQLQ) since a psoriasis-specific quality of life measure for children does not currently exist. The availability of a reliable and valid psoriasis-specific measure of pediatric HRQoL is likely to contribute to improved care of children with psoriasis and provide a relevant patient-reported outcome (PRO) for clinical trials of treatments.

The aim of the project is to conceptualize how managers at micro and macro levels work with organizational design in strategy implementation. Special focus will be given to how organizations balance the way that managers work with organizational design at different organizational levels in order to achieve a coherent organization steered towards the same overall goals and objectives, and enough maneuverability for middle and lower-level managers to adjust the strategy to local demands.
