Université Libre de Bruxelles (Belgium)

The mission of Fondation ULB is to support innovative research projects at the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) and to help researchers at the forefront of their discipline to achieve significant scientific progress.

Eurofins Foundation supports the research project CLEAN. While the world’s reliance on combustion is set to continue, to satisfy our energy needs, we need to advance combustion science to develop new technologies that can handle CO2-neutral fuels efficiently, without producing pollutants. Some examples of new combustion technologies have been proposed recently, and implemented in some practical devices. However, these low-emissions combustion regimes are very complex and difficult to predict, making it impossible to exchange solutions from one industrial configuration to another.

CLEAN aims to combine the most recent advances in computer science and high performance computing to decode the complexity of turbulent reacting flows and develop new models that can be used to effectively develop fuel-flexible, efficient and clean combustion technologies.

This research project contributes to the following United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals
