  1. 6. Distribution of black carbon and its impact on Eutrophication in Lake Victoria

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tema Miljöförändring

    Author : Moses Odhiambo; Joyanto Routh; [2016]
    Keywords : Lake Victoria; Eutrophication; Biomass burning; Black Carbon;

    Abstract : Lake Victoria (LV), is the largest tropical fresh water lake. It is however facing a myriad of challenges like eutrophication, introducing species, mass extinction and climate change. Eutrophication has mostly been seen as a result of non-point pollution from upstream agricultural areas. READ MORE

  2. 7. Investigation of Nitromethane Combustion Using Laser Induced Fluorescence

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik

    Author : Said Ali Said El-Busaidy; [2016]
    Keywords : Laser Induced fluorescence Nitromethane Combustion Chemiluminescence; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Pre-mixed nitromethane/air/nitrogen flames on a heat-flux burner are investigated at atmospheric pressure with equivalence ratios of =0.8 and =1.2. Flame thermometry and chemiluminescence spectrum were used to characterise the flame before carrying out saturated laser induced fluorescence on NO molecules. READ MORE

  4. 9. Parametric Study to understand Ethanol Partially Premixed Combustion

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Marcus Lundgren; [2012]
    Keywords : Ethanol premixed combustion; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : As global concern increases regarding pollution does the demand to develop more ecient and environmental friendlier propulsion system come in high focus. The main systems for transportation have been dominated by the Otto and Diesel engine for a long time, but both are trade-o in local and global emissions, i.e. NOX, soot, HC and CO versus CO2.

  5. 10. Horizontal Meter Scale Variability of Elemental Carbon in Surface Snow

    University essay from Institutionen för naturgeografi och kvartärgeologi (INK)

    Author : Jonas Svensson; [2011]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Soot deposited in snow and ice lowers the albedo of the surface and affects the radiative balance. Soot’s climatic forcing has received increased attention during the last decade, however, measurements of soot concentrations in Arctic snow are rare. READ MORE
