1. 1. Avskogningsförordningens påverkan på svenska energiföretag

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

   Author : Nelly Paz Eriksson; [2023]
   Keywords : Avskogningsförordningen; bioenergi; miljöreglering; energiföretag; skogliga biobränslen; bioolja; Deforestation Regulation; bioenergy; environmental regulation; energy companies; woody biofuels; bio-oil;

   Abstract : För att bekämpa global avskogning och skogsförstörelse orsakat av produktion och konsumtion i EU så har den Europeiska kommissionen välkomnat en ny lagstiftning. Den så kallade Avskogningsförordningen införs med syftet att bekämpa klimatförändringarna och reducera påverkan på den biologiska mångfalden, detta genom att förbjuda produkter inom EU som kommer från ställen där avskogning skett.

3. 2. Evaluation of the new Power & Biomass to Liquid (PBtL) concept for production of biofuels from woody biomass

   University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

   Author : Robert Dahl; [2021]
   Keywords : PBtL; Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis; Biofuels; ASF product distribution; Aspen Plus; PBtL; Fischer-Tropsch syntes; Biobränslen; ASF produktfördelning; Aspen Plus;

   Abstract : I den här rapporten utvärderas det nya konceptet Power & Biomass to Liquid (PBtL). PBtL är ett alternativ till den tidigare och mer etablerade Biomass to Liquid (BtL) processen. Med PBtL förbättras utbytet av kol jämfört med BtL genom att elektricitet läggs till i processen. READ MORE

4. 3. Evaluating Sugar Signaling during Xylose Oxidation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

   Author : Viktor Persson; [2020]
   Keywords : Saccharomyces cerevisiae; yeast; xylose oxidation; sugar signaling; biosensor; applied microbiology; teknisk mikrobiologi; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The sugar signaling state of cells oxidizing xylose was investigated through the chromosomal integration of the Weimberg pathway into previously established biosensor strains capable of monitoring the Snf3p/Rgt2p, SNF1/Mig1p, and cAMP/PKA pathways through the expression of HXT1, SUC2, and TPS1, respectively. Ultimately, two new strains were successfully developed containing both the Weimberg pathway and a biosensor for either HXT1 (TMB CB 112) or TPS1 (TMB CB 117). READ MORE
