  1. 6. Detection of Contaminants in Water Using Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Freja Hansson; [2021]
    Keywords : Raman; Surface-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy; nanoparticles; contaminants; plasmonics;

    Abstract : Due to deteriorating water quality and the world’s increasing demand for clean water, the need for cheap, easy and portable techniques to characterize and quantify pollutants in waters is urgent. Hence, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) have gained considerable attention in this field. READ MORE

  3. 7. The potential for Binding PFAS Using Biochar and Phytoremediation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Josefin Alice Maria Svensson; [2021]
    Keywords : Physical geography; ecosystem analysis; PFAS; Per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances; remediation; phytoremediation; biochar; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : PFAS is a group of long-lasting chemicals with multiple known toxicological effects which has been found everywhere in nature. One of the possible source points of PFAS is via landfill through leachate leaving the area. It is therefore important to investigate and implementing remediation techniques to reduce the contamination risk. READ MORE

  4. 8. Dispersed bio-based binders as drop-in solution for non-woven industry

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Emma Ingo; [2021]
    Keywords : Dispersion; Modified Biopolymers; Non-Woven; Binders; Green Chemistry; Dispersion; Modifierade Biopolymerer; Non-Woven; Bindemedel; Grön Kemi;

    Abstract : Sammanfattning på svenska: Målet med projektet var att utveckla ett system av disperserade bindemedel för non-wovenindustrin som inte förutsätter omfattande förändringar i befintliga processer. Bindemedlet ska vara biobaserat, bionedbrytbart och endast bestå av byggstenar som är matkontaktsgodkända av FDA och BFR. READ MORE

    Abstract : The bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis is the leading cause of bacterial sexually transmitted infection worldwide. When left untreated, chlamydial infections can lead to severe complications, such as infertility. READ MORE

  6. 10. 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
