  1. 1. THE ROLE OF WATER PURITY IN EMULSIFICATION AND REMOVAL OF OIL FROM SOLID SURFACES

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Andriani Tsompou; [2021]
    Keywords : ultra-pure water; detergency; detachment of oil from solid surfaces; washing; cleaning;

    Abstract : Detergents are broadly used in our everyday life for cleaning and washing procedures. They are however, a source of water pollution and can have a negative effect on human health and the environment. To reduce their negative impact, a new trend of using only pure water for washing and cleaning applications is being implemented. READ MORE

  2. 2. Modeling transport phenomena with COMSOL Multiphysics - Adsorptive membrane fouling in lignocellulosic biorefineries and lessons learned from it

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Linnéa Petersson; [2020]
    Keywords : QCM-D; Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring; Hemicellulose; GGM; Galactoglucomannans; Adsorption; Membrane fouling; COMSOL; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The separation of hemicelluloses, like glactoglucomannans, from lignocellulosic process streams is an important step in building profitable lignocellulosic biorefineries. The most common method for the separation is membrane filtration, however, it has the draw-back of being sensitive to membrane fouling. READ MORE

  3. 3. Biophysical differences between COPD, CF and healthy airways mucus.

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

    Author : Vladislav Genevskiy; [2020]
    Keywords : CF; COPD; mucus; structure;

    Abstract : An improved understanding of the mucus biophysical alteration in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cystic fibrosis (CF) patients is a milestone towards a more accurate and effective treatment of these common and highly debilitating conditions. Little is known about the variations in mucus structure between ill and healthy individuals. READ MORE

    Author : Sara Lundsten; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : One in three people in Sweden will sometime during their life be diagnosed with􀀀 cancer. The most important therapies used today to treat these patients are surgery,􀀀 radiation and chemotherapy. READ MORE

  5. 5. Interaction of PEG-ylated Lipid Nanoparticles with Silica Substrates

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kemi - BMC

    Author : Xinchen Zhang; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this project, the interaction between polyethylene glycol modified (PEG-ylated) lipid nanoparticles and silica substrates was studied to find out how this interaction was affected by bulk concentration, temperature and the composition of particles. One kind of lipodisk and four kinds of PEG-ylated liposome were prepared from lipid films and characterized by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) instrument mounted with silica sensor.
