  1. 11. Developing a closed-loop supply chain to eliminate Single Use Plastic products : Implementing Circular Economy practices driven by EU commission directives

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Elsa Ottosson; Rania Oweini; [2023]
    Keywords : Circular Economy; Circular Business Models; Closed Loop Supply Chain; Single Use Plastic; EU-directive; Small and medium sized enterprise; Post Consumer Plastic Waste;

    Abstract : Single use plastic products (SUPs) are a primary cause of plastic pollution causing significant environmental harm. These products have little to no value after use and are challenging to recycle cost efficiently. READ MORE

  3. 12. The Magnetocaloric Effect in Antiferromagnetic and Noncollinear Magnets

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

    Author : Siri Alva Berge; [2023]
    Keywords : magnetocaloric effect; atomistic spin dynamics; monte carlo; antiferromagnet; neodymium; noncollinear magnetism;

    Abstract : The magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is the temperature change in a magnetic material due to a change in an applied magnetic field. How the MCE behaves in different magnetic materials and at different phase transitions is fundamental to understand. READ MORE

  4. 13. Design and processing of metal-organic frameworks for greenhouse gas capture

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella material

    Author : Evelina Wiksten; [2023]
    Keywords : Metal-organic frameworks; zeolitic imidazolate frameworks; carbon capture; gas adsorption; direct ink writing;

    Abstract : Anthropogenic emission of greenhouse gases has long been suspected to contribute to global warming and climate change. Most greenhouse gases are emitted in a mixture, so efficient methods and materials to separate and capture the gases are in demand in order to reduce emissions. READ MORE

  5. 14. Separation and acidification of digested animal manure : properties of the future organic fertilizers

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Marie Björs; [2023]
    Keywords : Digestate; Eutrophication; Farmers’ survey; Plasma activation; Screw press;

    Abstract : Agricultural areas with a high animal density contribute to eutrophication in waterbodies and seas worldwide due to accumulation of nutrients around animal farms. Animal manure is heavy and bulky, thus unpractical to transport long distances and new techniques have been developed to refine animal manure and make it easier to transport. READ MORE

  6. 15. Life Cycle Perspective on School Buildings’ Energy Retrofitting

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Maryam Kafashtehrani; [2022]
    Keywords : School; building; LCA; IDA-ICE; energy retrofitting; insulation; ventilation; photovoltaic; PV; GHG;

    Abstract : The building sector contributes substantial energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Energy efficiency is the main driver for the mitigation of climate change. Schools are placed with high energy consumption and GHG emitting. READ MORE
