    Abstract : Solid waste management is a global issue that affects everyone. The management of waste collection routes is a critical challenge in urban environments, primarily due to inefficient routing. This thesis investigates the use of real-time virtual replicas, namely Digital Twins to optimize waste collection routes. READ MORE

  4. 13. Explorative Scenarios for Future Lithium Supplies and Demand

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Aksel Rahman; [2023]
    Keywords : lithium mining; lithium future production; Gompertz models; Richards models; Logistic models;

    Abstract : Because of its specific qualities, lithium is a key element for making lithium-ion batteries, which is of great relevance since the battery sector is the fastest growing user of lithium to date and with the transition towards a fully electrified transportation sector due to the current climate agenda and an even bigger increase in demand for lithium is anticipated for the coming decades. The two main sources for lithium to date are mines and brines, with brine water composing around 87 % of the world’s lithium reserves in terms of contained lithium. 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. Greening peptide chemistry by using NBP as solvent for SPPS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Andrea Ölander; [2022]
    Keywords : SPPS; Green chemistry; Peptide Synthesis; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The preferred method for synthesising therapeutic peptides today is by Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS). SPPS is a wasteful process, where the main component of the waste is hazardous solvents, i.e., N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or dichloromethane (DCM). READ MORE
