1. 1. Sustainable bread supply chains in Sweden : examining scenarios for reducing or lowering the impact of surplus bread

   University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

   Author : Fanny Sturén; [2023]
   Keywords : food waste quantification; bread take-back agreements TBA ; supply chain; food waste hierarchy; sustainable food system; food donations Swedish University;

   Abstract : Food waste has significant environmental, social, and economic implications, demanding actions toward a sustainable food system. In Sweden's bread supply chain, approximately 14% of produced bread is wasted, with 9% attributed to unsold bread in stores. READ MORE

3. 2. Risk Factors of Food Loss and Waste, and Life Cycle Assessment of waste management strategies in the Brazilian Leafy Vegetable Supply Chain

   University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

   Author : Nathalie Garavito; [2023]
   Keywords : Behavioural causes; carbon footprint; causal mapping; mitigation strategies; prevention; root-cause analysis; take-back agreements;

   Abstract : Food loss and waste (FLW) occurring early in the food supply chain (FSC) leads to increased resource wastage, including land, water, fertilisers, pesticides, fuel, packaging, energy, and labour. Targeting FLW prevention benefits various aspects such as food security, productivity, economic growth, climate change mitigation, resource conservation, and food waste management. READ MORE

5. 4. Strain Rate Characterization of Packaging Materials

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell Produktion

   Author : Zichun Wang; [2022]
   Keywords : Paperboard; Strain rate; yield stress; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This master thesis firstly introduced the basic knowledge of packaging materials through a literature survey focused on exploring the effect of strain-rate on mechanical properties of paperboard materials. By means of tensile tests and microscopic observation, the changes of mechanical properties such as yield strength, strain and Young's modulus of the two different paperboards used in laminated packaging materials for the two different package types Tetra Fino® Aspetic (TFA) and Tetra Brik® Aseptic (TBA) from Tetra Pak® were analyzed at strain rate ranging from 0.
