  1. 1. Demand controlled ventilation : Impact on energy use and indoor environmental quality

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Therese Ottosson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : European buildings account for a significant share of the energy-related emissions in Europe. Addressing the increasing energy use and its contribution to greenhouse gases (GHG) is internationally recognized as crucial, and emissions must be halted. READ MORE

  3. 2. Modeling competitive adsorption of binary mixtures of volatile organic compounds

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Michelle Janus; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Adsorption is a common technique for the removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial waste streams. The multi-component adsorption on zeolites, particularly the interactions between VOCs and water vapor is sparsely understood and is yet to be described by empiric and full-physical models.

  4. 3. The transition of reaction-to-fire behavior from biomass to corresponding biochar

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Jacob Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : biochar; biomass; heat release rate; reaction-to-fire;

    Abstract : As of now, the environmental issue is very topical and there is also an underutilization of different biological material where these can be used in ways that are typically not thought of. One way to increase the degree of utilization is to convert various biomasses such as natural rubber, olive pits, wood chips, and reed pellets into biochar. READ MORE

  5. 4. Beware of your neighbour : the effects of intraspecific interactions and CO2-level on the plant growth of two Barley cultivars

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

    Author : Nadja Nyberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Barley; Salome; Fairytale; cultivar mixture; pure stand; intraspecific competition; plant-plant interactions; competitive ability; elevated CO2;

    Abstract : Plants have evolved several ways to sense what is going on around them. They can detect possible competitors by picking up on airborne Volatile Compounds emitted from neighbouring plants. The cues can induce growth responses that enhances the competitive ability of the receiver. READ MORE

  6. 5. Improving the sensorial properties of pea protein through fermentation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

    Author : Antonios Stamatakis; [2023]
    Keywords : Lactic acid fermentation; fermented pea powder; cultures and screening; physicochemical properties; sensory analysis.; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : Lactic acid fermentation has been a widely used process for many years, offering nutritional and sensory benefits to plant proteins. In this study, the objective was to produce a fermented pea powder with enhanced sensory properties by combining previous research from FrieslandCampina. READ MORE
