  1. 1. SINGLE AND COMBINED EXPOSURE OF POLYSTYRENE NANOPARTICLES AND NORTH SEA MARINE OIL IN TWO IN VITRO FISH MODELS

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Monica Olsson; [2022-10-05]
    Keywords : Polystyrene nanoparticles; crude oil; combined toxicity; cytotoxicity; oxidative stress;

    Abstract : The awareness of micro-and nanoplastic pollution and its impact on the marine ecosystem has increased over the last decade. Nanoplastics may affect aquatic organisms since their small size and high surface-to-volume ratio increases their bioavailability and ability to cross biological membranes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Competition between Phase Separation and Micellization in a Coarse-Grained Protein Model with Two Components

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Fangxuan Lyu; [2022]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are widely believed to play a key role in the for- mation of intracellular biomolecular condensates through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). Furthermore, it has been shown in vitro that several IDPs are able to phase sepa- rate on their own. READ MORE

  3. 3. Integration of Hydrogen Production via Water Electrolysis at a CHP Plant : A feasibility study

    Keywords : Geothermal development; membrane distillation; EWF nexus; sustainable development; energy transition;

    Abstract : Growing populations are contributing to resource scarcity, making it ever more important for governments to address resource challenges in a holistic and integrated manner. Energy, water and food are examples of these critical resources, and the province of Alberta in Canada faces an interesting opportunity to tackle all three in tandem. READ MORE

  5. 5. Techno-Economic Analysis of Small-Scale Polygeneration Systems for a Ground Based Air Defence Operations Center in the Swedish Armed Forces

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Alma Klipic; Sidar Eken; [2020]
    Keywords : Polygeneration; STandUP;

    Abstract : Climate change is an important topic of today's discussion where scientists have determined that a large proportion of the increasing global temperatures is a product of the increasing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Globally it is expected that the share of renewable power generation is set to increase with 50 % between 2019 and 2024. READ MORE
