    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Author : Maryam Dinar; [2023]
    Keywords : SLC38A1; SNAT1; SLC38A2; SNAT2; SLC38A3; SNAT3; SLC38A4; SNAT4; SLC38A5; SNAT5; SLC38A6; SNAT6; SLC38A7; SNAT7; SLC38A8; SNAT8; SLC38A9; SNAT9; SLC38A10; SNAT10; SLC38A11; SNAT11; SLC; SLC38; SNATs; SNAT; RT-qPCR; GABA; glutamine; glutamate;

    Abstract : Solute carriers consist of over 400 genes and 66 subfamilies and are the largest group of membrane bound transporters. They facilitate movement of many molecules through cells and organelles and are crucial for upholding many key functions in the human body. They are also involved in the pathophysiology of several diseases. READ MORE

  3. 2. Numerical simulations of solute transport in microchannels impregnated with a biofilm

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Tim Berglund; [2023]
    Keywords : Biofilms; Numerical simulation; Solute transport;

    Abstract : The feasibility of simulating solute transport in a channel impregnated witha biofilm is investigated. Biofilm factors relevant for numerical simulation arestudied to determine a suitable range of simulation. READ MORE

  4. 3. Idealised remediation scenario in two small-scale intersecting fractures

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Agnes Zúniga Ekenberg; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Analysis of mass transport in rock fractures has become increasingly important in underground storage of radioactive materials and remediation of polluted groundwater in fractured rock aquifers. Permeability of rock mass is regulated by present rock fractures, where flow is mainly through the fracture networks. READ MORE

  5. 4. Modelling of Fluid Flow and Contaminant Transport in Fractured Rock : Case Study

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Ebba Pegestam; [2022]
    Keywords : Contaminant transport; Discrete Fracture Network; Geology; Geohydrology; Groundwater transport; Fracture; Drinking water; Contamination; Föroreningar; flödestransport; spricknätverk; geologi; geohydrologi; grundvattentransport; sprickor; dricksvatten;

    Abstract : Drinking water contamination is a big concern in Sweden and is commonly traced back to being waste from former manufacturing industrial sites. Pollutants in the topsoil can be remediated by several techniques, such as decontamination or excavation but the toxins already enclosed in the bedrock cannot be treated the same and is harder to track possible contaminant pathways.

  6. 5. Modeling BOD removal in free watersurface constructed wetlands with variable residence time-based methods

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Degefu Yohannes Sebro; [2021]
    Keywords : BOD removal; Free water-surface constructed wetlands; VART-BOD; models; dynamic diffusion zone; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Constructed wetlands (CWs) have been applied for several years in the removal process pollutants from secondary treatment plants and stormwater. In this paper, the Variable Residence Time (VART) model for solute transport in streams was extended to simulate the BOD removal process in free water surface flow constructed wetlands (FWS CWs).
