  1. 16. How the Choice of Primary Treatment Affects the Biogas Potential of Primary Sludge

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Fanny Blom; [2022]
    Keywords : wastewater treatment; primary treatment; biogas potential; primary settling treatment; rotating belt filter; chemically enhanced primary treatment; environmental engineering; water resources engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The global heating has resulted in rising temperatures and more extreme weather conditions around the world. In combination with increasing energy demands, this has led to an increasing demand of renewable energy. One option is utilizing the wastewater to produce biogas. There-fore, wastewater can be seen as a resource rather than waste. READ MORE

  3. 17. Effect of ash on catalytic activity for passive regeneration of catalytic diesel particulate filter : Evaluation of ash deposition by laboratory ageing

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Gisela Engström; [2022]
    Keywords : Diesel Particulate Filter; Ash deposition; Laboratory Ageing; Catalytic Activity; Passive regeneration;

    Abstract : Askackumulering i dieselpartikelfilter är ett välkänt problem som resulterar i ett förhöjt mottryck och påverkad prestanda hos fordonet. Däremot ges sällan uppmärksamhet åt filtrets katalytiska aktivitet och hur det påverkas vid förekomst av avgasföroreningar. READ MORE

  4. 18. Does turbidity affect critical thermal maximum (CTM) of mussels : Behavioural changes in Unio tumidus under stress

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Ellinor Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : CTM; critical thermal maximum; turbidity; suspended solids; Unio tumidus; freshwater mussel; bivalve; climate change; Unionida; CTM; turbiditet; grumlighet; suspenderade ämnen; Unio tumidus; sötvattensmussla; musslor; klimatförändringar; Unionida;

    Abstract : Freshwater mussels is one the most endangered groups of organisms worldwide and stand in front of several threats. Global warming along with anthropogenic influence affect the mussel’s natural habitat and stress leads to changes in their behaviour. READ MORE

  5. 19. Influence of Wastewater DOM Fractions on the Adsorption of Pharmaceuticals onto Activated Carbon

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Koustubh Karande; [2022]
    Keywords : Wastewater treatment; Dissolved organic matter; Pharmaceuticals; Activated carbon; Hydrophobicity; Molecular weight; Water resources engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Micropollutants in our sources of freshwater is an issue which requires immediate attention. The presence of pharmaceuticals, endocrine disrupting agents, pesticides and other harmful compounds have proven to have impact on the aquatic as well as on human life. READ MORE

  6. 20. Removal Characteristics of Fibrous and Particulate Microplastics : A Study of the Effectiveness of Coagulation-Flocculation- Sedimentation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Amrith Kumar; [2022]
    Keywords : Coagulation; flocculation; jar test; microplastics; sedimentation; water treatment; Burktest; flockning; koagulering; mikroplaster; sedimentering; vattenrening;

    Abstract : The rapid proliferation of microplastics (MPs) over the last few decades have raised alarms about the major environmental and health impacts posed by this anthropogenic source. The widespread propagation and transport of MP particles in water sources have accelerated the need to study the eco- toxicological impacts as well as the efficacy of various removal mechanisms from these critical water sources.
