Are the new titles Hereditary nobles or just for life?

2 Belgians already belonging to the hereditary Nobility, jonkheer Cédric Blanpain and jonkvrouw Charlotte Lhoist, got permission to use the title of baron / barones as a personal title.

8 Belgians without a noble title or predicate were elevated into the Nobility with the personal title baron/ barones.

Does he come from the van den Eyden family (ennobled nobles a branch in Antwerp and later Italy)?
