1. Temperature Optimum for Biomass Production of two Species of Benthic Diatoms
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap; Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : Diatoms and other algae can be cultivated and beneficially used in several sectors with applications ranging from nutrient recycling to production of high-valued biomaterials used by the green energy industries, in pharmaceutical products or as food supplements. In this experimental study, the temperature optimum for biomass production was tested for two species of benthic diatoms, Diatoma sp. READ MORE

2. Qualitative Analysis of Chlorinated Paraffins in Recycled Plastics
University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknikAbstract : Described in many studies as dangerous for the environment and potentially carcinogenic for humans, Chlorinated Paraffins (CPs) are easily widespread due to their substantial production and use in different products. Previous studies reported the presence of CPs in different plastic polymers. READ MORE

3. A novel approach for functionalising and separating Tröger's Base Analogues
University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntesAbstract : Tröger’s Base (TB) is a bicyclic compound containing a methanodiazocine group between two aromatic rings. The methylene bridge forces the molecule to have a bent formation; thus, the aromatic rings are close to 90 degrees relative to each other, resulting in a rigid concave aromatic cavity. READ MORE

4. Mercury accumulation in lake sediments on different time scales – the influence of algal primary production
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskapAbstract : The aim of this work is to test the proposed approach of algal scavenging as a driver of sediment mercury (Hg) on different time scales and to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms of Hg accumulation in lake sediments. A 3000-year sediment record from Nylandssjön in northern Sweden was analysed for this purpose, as well as a 20-year sediment record from the seasonal sediment traps of this lake. READ MORE
