  1. 26. An evaluation of the treatment performance of a ten year old stormwater biofilter in Sweden

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Sara Eklund; [2020]
    Keywords : Biofilter; Water Quality; heavy Metals; Nutrients; Stormwater Treatment; Sweden; Tyresö; Biofilter; Vattenkvalitet; Tungmetaller; Näringsämnen; Dagvattenrening; Sverige; Tyresö;

    Abstract : Urban runoff may be contaminated with, for example, metals, nutrients and sediment. Generally, such runoff enters waterways and oceans without any type of treatment. Bioretention systems can be used to protect the aquatic environment since one of their main objectives is to remove pollutants from stormwater. READ MORE

  3. 27. Responses to declining zoobenthos abundance : Changes over time in diet and growth of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus)

    University essay from

    Author : Douglas Skarp; [2020]
    Keywords : charr; zoobenthos; growth; diet;

    Abstract : A decline in the density of zoobenthos has taken place in Lake Abiskojaure in the northern Swedish mountains between 1988 and 2019 but no response can be seen in the abundance (CPUE) of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) that feed mainly on benthic invertebrates. To evaluate if possible shifts in resource use of charr explain this lack of change in population abundance, stomach contents (i. READ MORE

  4. 28. Mapping of spontaneous biological phosphorous removal in MBR-process

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Benjamin Fridh; [2020]
    Keywords : Polyphosphate poly-P ; Phosphorous;

    Abstract : An unexpected biological removal of phosphorous in IVL Hammarby Sjöstadsverket pilot membrane bioreactor (MBR) wastewater treatment process was investigated by three distinct methods. a) Investigation and quantification of the biological phosphorous uptake (bio-P) capacity by phosphate release tests (PRT), b) validation of bio-P occurrence by granular polyphosphate (poly-P) staining and microscopy and c) metagenomic community structure analysis to map the sludge habitat.

  5. 29. Effekter av klimatförändringar på växtplankton i subarktiska och alpina sjöar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Matilda Lundström; [2019]
    Keywords : Fosfor; Växtplanktonbiomassa; Diversitet; Oligotrofiering; Temperatur;

    Abstract : The aim of this report was to determine how the climate change affects the ecosystems in alpine and subarctic lakes in Sweden. This was done by analyzing data from environmental monitoring of 14 subarctic and alpine lakes that was part of the national time-series lake monitoring program. READ MORE

  6. 30. Investigation into Melting Characteristics of Hydrogen-Reduced Iron Ore Pellets

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Hedda Pousette; [2019]
    Keywords : Iron Ore Pellets; Sulphur; Phosphorous; Slag; Hydrogen Gas; Järnmalmspellets; Svavel; Fosfor; Slagg; Vätgas;

    Abstract : What kinetic and thermodynamic characteristics are established in a melt of hydrogen-reduced iron ore pellets? The pellets contain self-fluxing slag components which upon melting form an initial slag. Refining capabilities of this slag, such as dephosphorization power, are investigated in a lab-scale vertical furnace. READ MORE
