  1. 1. Quality enhancement of time-resolved computed tomography scans with cycleGAN

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Johannes Stubbe; [2023]
    Keywords : carbon fibers; carbon fibres; microfibers; tomography; deep learning; cycleGAN; time-resolved tomography; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Time-resolved x-ray tomography enables us to dynamically and non-destructively study the interior of a specimen. The obtainable temporal resolution is limited by the x-ray flux and the desired spatial resolution. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigation of the binding effect of fungal fiber (grown on apple pomace) in the formation of lyocell nonwoven textiles and their potential applications

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Xue Luo; [2021]
    Keywords : lyocell; nonwovens; binder; filamentous fungi; wet-laid; fungal microfibers; apple pomace; cellulose;

    Abstract : This project combines nonwoven technology, biological technology and food waste management and seeks for this feasibility to use fungal microfiber (FM) as a binder for lyocell pro-duction and the characterizations for possible applications. Rhizopus delemar was cultivated apple pomace in liquid-state fermentation to obtain mycelia biomass. READ MORE

  4. 3. Separation of microfibers from laundry waste water by hydrocyclone : In cooperation with Electrolux Professional

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Anna Cecilia Carolina Lorentzon; [2021]
    Keywords : microfiber separation; microfibre separation; hydrocyclone; hydrocyclonic separation; microfibers; microfibres; laundry effluent; laundry waste water; laundry wastewater;

    Abstract : Microfibers, textile fibres shorter than 5 mm, and are shed from fabrics during wear and released into the laundry effluent during washing. When passed through the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), they adsorb toxins, heavy metals and pathogens before being released into the environment. READ MORE

  5. 4. Converting Poultry Feather Waste into Bioplastics using Green Modifying Agents

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Marc Jirström; [2021]
    Keywords : polymer technology; materials science; renewable materials; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Handling of problematic waste material, and the use of fossil-based and non-biodegradable plastics are two major sustainability challenges. By developing solutions that convert waste material to bioplastics, it is possible to address both these issues. READ MORE

  6. 5. Preparation of films and nonwoven composites from fungal microfibers grown in bread waste

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Maximilian Köhnlein; [2020]
    Keywords : bread waste; chitin; chitosan; filamentous fungi; film; fungal cell wall; fungal microfibers; glucosamine; mycelia; N-acetyl-glucosamine; nonwoven; wet-laid;

    Abstract : Unsold bread makes up a signification fraction of waste occurring in Swedish supermarkets. This thesis seeks to address the problem of food waste, by cultivating filamentous fungi on bread waste and producing chitinous films and nonwovens from them. READ MORE
