  1. 11. Life Cycle Assessment of Urban Underground Oyster Mushroom Farming

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Emile Lemaitre; [2022]
    Keywords : Life cycle assessment LCA ; Urban mushroom farming; Oyster mushrooms; Urban agriculture; Livscykelanalys LCA ; Urban svampodling; Ostronskivling; Stadsodling;

    Abstract : Global food production has been recognized as the single largest driver of environmental degradation and transgression of planetary boundaries. Providing healthy food sustainably to a growing, mostly urban population will require radical changes to the food system. READ MORE

  2. 12. Increase of biogas production by incorporating residual streams from agriculture

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Stephanie Fjäll; [2022]
    Keywords : Anaerobic digestion; Agricultural residue; Lignocellulosic biomass; Mechanical pretreatment; Biogas production; Biorefinery; Chemical engineering; Agriculture and Food Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : To expand the biogas production in Region Västra Götaland (RVG), residual streams from the agricultural sector can function as a large-scale supplier of biomass. The production of biogas decreases the dependence of fossil fuels and the digestate that is formed can also be returned to the agricultural sector, creating a closed loop. READ MORE

  3. 13. Analysing information content in images of paper straws using image processing, machine learning and deep learning

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Ammie Blomberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Continuous production control is important for the production using Tetra Pak equipment, as problems that are found early in the chain of production can minimize the need for waste greatly. In production of paper straws, a possible production control could be to photograph straws during production, analyse these and predict how good the straw is, using the image. READ MORE

  4. 14. Bio-enhanced silicate weathering : Coupled to sequestration of CO2

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Limnologi

    Author : Marcus Westholm; [2022]
    Keywords : NETs; Bio-enhanced weathering; Carbon capture;

    Abstract : Weathering of silicate minerals has long been a known source of natural CO2 sequestration, that could be increased in the presence of microorganisms. Bio-enhanced weathering of silicate minerals could increase the sequestration of CO2 from the atmosphere. READ MORE

  5. 15. Climate change mitigation from biochar production at farm level : A time dynamic LCA study of wheat

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Louise Jungefeldt; [2022]
    Keywords : Pyrolysis; agricultural by-products; life cycle assessment; waste valorization; carbon sequestration;

    Abstract : Agricultural production in Sweden account for a large contribution of the territorial GHG emissions. System optimization, fossil fuel removal and increased circularity is therefore of great importance in order to reach the national net zero emission target by 2045. READ MORE
