One of his interests is corrosion research, for which physics, electrochemistry and physical chemistry are important disciplines. From June 1997 to March 1998 he worked as a research physicist at the department of Corrosion Research of the Shell Research and Technology Centre, Amsterdam.
From March 1998 to September 2002 he worked at Electrochemical Technology (Process Development Group) of the Eindhoven University of Technology on several projects, among which an EU-project dealing with the regeneration of metals from process liquids and other projects dealing with environmental and industrial electrochemistry.
From October 2002 to December 2004 he worked at Corrosion & Antifouling, TNO Science & Industry in Den Helder, mainly on projects dealing with innovative materials for anticorrosive coatings.
From March 2005 to February 2007 he was employed by Delft University of Technology. Research was focussed on mathematical modelling of pitting corrosion.
Bart is an enthousiast scientist. Professionally his interests include (electro)chemical reactions, electro(dia)lysis, ion exchange, materials science, mathematical modelling and teaching.
Since 2004 he is the Dutch regional representative of the International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE). From March 2007 he is employed by the NLDA.
