  3. Copernicus Institute(composed of 4 departments at Utrecht University) • Dpt. of Science, Technology and Society (Fac. of Chemistry) • Dpt. of Science, Technology and Innovation Management (Fac. of Geographical Science) • Dpt. of Environmental Sciences and hydroecology (Fac. of Geographical Science) • Dpt. of Environmental Sciences and Policy (Fac. of Geographical Science)

  4. Research clusters at the Dpt. of Science, Technology and Society (STS) • Efficient use of energy and materials (EMD)Prof. Kornelis Blok, Dr. Martin Patel • Sustainable energy supplyProf. Wim Turkenburg, Dr. Andre Faaij • Land use and biodiversityDr. Pita Verweij • Risk assessment and global changeDr. Jeroen van der Sluijs

  5. EMD cluster • AIOs Jun. researchers • Andrea Ramirez (Eng.) - Manuela Crank (Eng.) • Tao Ren (Innov. Science) - Maarten Neelis (Eng.) • - Vlasis Oikonomou (Econ.) • - Dirk-Jan Treffers (Chem.) Staff - Prof. Kornelis Blok (Phys.) - Evert Nieuwlaar (Chem.) - Prof. Bert de Vries (Chem.) - Martin Patel (Eng.)

  6. Material flow analysis, emission inventories Bio-based materials Short & long-term energy and materials efficiency Efficient use of energy and materials Two types of projects: • Techno-economic analysis • Policy analysis

  7. Current projects (1/3) Techno-economic analysis • NEU-CO2-II, -III: Non-energy use and CO2 emissions.UU, ECN and ~20 network partners for DG Research, 1999-2003, 2004-2005 • NEAT-NL: Improvement of CO2 emission estimates from hydrocarbon feedstocks in the Netherlands.UU and ECN for MinVROM and NOVEM, 2002-2003 • NEAT-DE:Methodenaktualisierung für die Emissionsberechnung – Nichtenergetischer Verbrauch.UU for Umweltbundesamt (UBA), Berlin, 2004 Material flow analysis, emission inventories Bio-based materials • BREW: Medium and long-term opportunities and risks of the biotechnological production of bulk chemicals from renewable resources.UU and 13 partners for the EC’s GROWTH Programme, 2003-2004 • PRO-BIP: Techno-economic Feasibility of Large-scale Production of Bio-based Polymers in Europe.With Fraunhofer-ISI for the European Commission’s Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS), Seville, Spain
