1. 1. We Pay We Say – Participatory Design in OldSchool RuneScape's Polling and Feedback Systems

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för speldesign

   Author : William Melander; Björn Johansson; [2023]
   Keywords : games; game development; genuine participation; oldschool runescape; participatory design; polling; survey; user experience;

   Abstract : This paper analyses the players’ perception of the feedback and polling systems of OldSchool RuneScape to determine what level of participatory design is achieved by the feedback and polling systems used in the game. The aim of the research is to increase the availability of knowledge regarding participatory design in live-service games, as only limited coverage of the topic exists. READ MORE

3. 2. Historical ecology of the Greater Burgan oilfield : economy, technology, politics, and workers

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historia

   Author : Saleh Youssef; [2022]
   Keywords : Oil extraction; The Greater Burgan Oilfield; Petrocultures; Assemblage thinking; Kuwait econ-omy; Oil peak; Migrant labour; Environmental History;

   Abstract : This thesis examines the current state of crude oil extraction and production in the Greater Burgan oilfield, Kuwait's largest and oldest oilfield. This thesis is based on interviews with oilfield workers, analyses of official documents from the Kuwaiti government and the Kuwait Oil Company (KOC), and my own experience as an oilfield worker in Kuwait.

4. 3. Evaluation of distribution coefficients (KOC and Kd) for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för biologi och miljö (BOM)

   Author : Nika Nordanstorm; [2021]
   Keywords : PFAS; PFOS; organic contaminant; sorption; Kd; KOC; distribution coefficient; solubility; mobility; environmental fate; environmental transport; contaminated site; hydrophobic interaction; electrostatic interaction;

   Abstract : The dominating factors affecting sorption of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) remain subject of research and debate. Traditionally, distribution coefficients (e.g. READ MORE

5. 4. Binding of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) to organic soil horizons of peat and mor : effect of solution chemistry and soil organic matter composition

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

   Author : Jennifer Makselon; [2019]
   Keywords : sorption; electrostatic interactions; isotherms; partitioning coefficient; soil organic matter; cation; PFOS; PFOA; desorption;

   Abstract : The understanding of sorption processes of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in soils is important for the determination of their fate and transport in the environment. The sorption behavior of PFASs of varying chain length and hydrophilic headgroup was studied in three organic soils, two peat soils and one mor layer, with differing chemical composition of the soil organic matter (SOM).

6. 5. Sorption of perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkylated substances (PFASs) in the subsurface of an industrial site in Sweden

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Carl Sköld; [2019]
   Keywords : Sorption; soil-water partitioning; Kd; PFOS; PFOA; PFHxS; Sorption; fördelningskoefficient; Kd; PFOS; PFOA; PFHxS;

   Abstract : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a group of emerging chemicals which havereceived increasing attention due to their toxicity, persistent properties, and global distribution.In this study, sorption coefficients (Kd and KOC) of PFASs in an industrial site in Sweden wereevaluated.
