  1. 1. Biokinetic Characterization of Methane Oxidizing Microbiomes Co-metabolizing Trace Organic Chemicals

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Hugo Möller; [2024]
    Keywords : Methanotrophs; organic micropollutants; co-metabolism; biodegradation; applied microbiology; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The presence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in wastewater effluents is concerning, as they pose a threat to human and aquatic health. Biodegradation via methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) is an attractive option, as the method is cheap and effective. MOB can co-metabolize a variety of substrates, there among organic micropollutants.

  2. 2. Sustainability of Construction and Demolition Waste : A Closed-loop Supply Chain for Flat Glass

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för ekonomistyrning och logistik (ELO)

    Author : Thor Lobekk Dahl; Yichang Lu; Sidney Carina Thill; [2021]
    Keywords : Closed-loop Supply Chain; Circular Economy; Flat Glass; Construction and Demolition Waste; Secondary Material; Costs;

    Abstract : Purpose: This thesis’ purpose is to identify a CLSC model of flat glass, including actors,waste sources, and what can be done with recycled flat glass. In addition, this researchaims to propose a cost structure of a flat glass CLSC. READ MORE

  3. 3. Reuse in Demolition Projects : A Systematic Multicriteria Approach to Rank andOptimize the Reuse of Building Components in Demolition Projects

    University essay from KTH/Fastigheter och byggande

    Author : Matilda Ferlander; Wedin Ellinor; [2021]
    Keywords : Reuse; Recycling; Demolition projects; Sustainability; Waste treatment; CDW; CBA; MCA; LCA; Building components.; Återbruk; Återanvändning; Återvinning; Rivningsprojekt; Hållbarhet; Recycling; Avfallshantering; CDW; CBA; MCA; LCA; Byggkomponenter;

    Abstract : The waste framework directive from the European Commission states that 70 percent of allconstruction- and demolition waste (CDW) should be reused or recycled. In Sweden during theyear of 2018, 52,1 percent of the generated CDW was reused or recycled, but a report fromAvfall Sverige showed that reuse only accounted for small fractions of this. READ MORE

  4. 4. Engineering Rhodosporidium toruloides for the production of polyhydroxybutyrate

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Author : Tova Lindh; [2021]
    Keywords : Applied microbiology; Bioplastics; Rhodosporidium toruloides; Polyhydroxybutyrate; Non-conventional yeast; Oleaginous yeast; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : The increased use of plastics has become an environmental problem where plastics, due to the slow degradation, accumulate in the oceans and landfills. Although plastics are a very cheap and useful material with desirable properties and a wide variety of applications, they are primarily made from petroleum-based resources which are non-renewable and of fossil origin.

  5. 5. First Principle Calculations & Inelastic Neutron Scattering on the Single-Crystalline Superconductor LaPt2Si2

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Mazza Federico; [2020]
    Keywords : Superconductivity; LaPt2Si2; Inelastic Neutron Scattering; Charge Density Wave; Band Structure Calculations; DFT; SNIC; J-PARC; Supraledning; LaPt2Si2; neutronspridning; neutronspektroskopi; Bandberäkningar; DFT; J-PARC;

    Abstract : This work presents a comprehensive study on single crystalline LaPt2Si2, in which superconductivity and a charge density wave (CDW) coexist. The usage of density functional theory (DFT) modeling and Inelastic Neutron Scattering has been the primary form of investigation, in order to determine all the characteristic features of the sample taken under consideration.
