1. 16. Complete removal of biomass from oilseed radish as a cover crop decreased nitrous oxide emissions

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

   Author : Emma Lövgren; [2022]
   Keywords : Nitrous oxide; cover crops; freeze-thaw cycles; immobilization; oil seed radish;

   Abstract : One of the many benefits of utilizing cover crops in crop rotations is their carbon sequestrating effect. However, frost-sensitive cover crops could emit high levels of the potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide. READ MORE

3. 17. Microbial Carbonisation and its potential for on-farm composting : exploring reductive composting as an approach for regenerative agriculture

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

   Author : Ludwig Peter Stephan; [2022]
   Keywords : on-farm composting; reductive composting; regenerative agriculture; microbial carbonisation; mikrobielle carbonisierung; greenhouse gas emissions;

   Abstract : The search for agronomic solutions to the decline of soil health, open-ended nutrient cycles and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculture, against the background of impending climate change, were motivations for this thesis. A composting trial on a Swedish farm was designed to find answers to the overarching research question of how feasible and climate-friendly on-farm composting using Microbial Carbonisation (MC) is, compared to conventional windrow composting (CC).

4. 18. Emission Calculation Model for Vehicle Routing Planning : Estimation of emissions from heavy transports and optimization with carbon dioxide equivalents for a route planning software

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

   Author : Alice Hartikka; Simon Nordenhög; [2021]
   Keywords : Multi objective optimization; fuel consumption; transport emissions; Multiobjektiv optimering; bränslekonsumtion; transportutsläpp;

   Abstract : The transport sector is a major cause of emissions both in Sweden and globally. This master thesis aims to develop a model for estimating emissions from heavy transport on a specific route. The emissions can be used in a route planning software and help the driver choose a route that contributes to reduced emissions. READ MORE

5. 19. The generation of nitrous oxide in bio-linesat the Wastewater Treatment Plant in Halmstad

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

   Author : Aldonna Jasa Prima Purba; [2021]
   Keywords : Activated sludge process; nitrification; denitrification; anaerobic; anoxic; aerobic;

   Abstract : This study describes the variation of an important greenhouse gas, nitrous oxide (N2O) at site-specific from the bio-lines unit at Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Halmstad. The sampling campaign at the WWTP was carried out for three consecutive days during the weekdays in March 2021 with total of 144 samples were taken in GHG sample vials (exetainers) and analysed for N2O measurements using gas chromatography.

6. 20. Markanvändning och kolbalans : beräkning av nettoutsläpp av koldioxid för SLU:s markanvändning

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

   Author : Camilla Lindberg; [2021]
   Keywords : markanvändning; koldioxidberäkning; klimatrapportering; skogsmark; åkermark; betesmark;

   Abstract : SLU äger såväl skogsmark, åkermark som betesmarker runt om i Sverige som påverkar kolinlagring och utsläpp på olika sätt – denna rapport kartlägger denna kolbalans och beräknar årliga nettoutsläpp av koldioxidekvivalenter. Beräkningar för kolbalansen hos SLU:s markanvändning har inte tidigare gjorts och därmed inte inkluderats i universitets årliga rapport om koldioxidutsläpp. READ MORE
