  1. 26. The climate impact of fishways : A life cycle assessment of Blyberg’s and Spjutmo’s up- and downstream fishways

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

    Author : Ellen Lundin; Lovisa Liljenberg; [2023]
    Keywords : LCA; life cycle analysis; life cycle assessment; fishways; fish; fish migration; climate impact; technical fishways; co2 equivalents; co2 eq; hydro power; HPP; Sweden; construction; concrete; reinforcement steel;

    Abstract : The Swedish national plan for reapproval of hydropower describes that hydropower plants (HPPs) are required to be reassessed to ensure that modern environmental conditions are set for the permits. Since dams and HPPs create barriers for migrating fish and consequently disfavor biological diversity, one consequence of the national plan is that fishways are being constructed. READ MORE

  3. 27. Exploring the industrial packaging of components for complex electrical products and its sustainability and circularity
