  1. 1. Water purification of ibuprofen using whey protein aerogels with and without PNF-structure

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Jessica Lyrner Morén; David Jonsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Aerogels; water purification; ibuprofen; protein nanofibrils PNF ; whey protein; attitudes; scientific research; Aerogeler; vattenrening; ibuprofen; protein nanofibriller PNF ; vassleprotein; attityder; naturvetenskaplig forskning;

    Abstract : Clean water, free from pharmaceuticals, is important both for land and water living animals. Protein nanofibrils (PNFs) have already been shown to be a promising candidate for water purification of pharmaceuticals but there is a lack of research that compares PNF materials to non-PNF protein materials for water purification.

  4. 3. Green Protein Hydrogels and Non-dry Aerogels in Water Purification

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Emanuel Nelsson Vedung; Alexander Singh; Julia Wadefjord; [2022]
    Keywords : Aerogel; Hydrogel; Whey Protein Isolate; Water purification; Adsorption; Sustainability;

    Abstract : Having access to clean water is not a certainty for every human being. Today, there are major problems with polluted water that not just affect us humans, but also the ecosystem around us. In recent years, research into making aerogels from protein nanofibrils (PNF) has increased. READ MORE

  5. 4. Development of a porous material from cellulose nanofibrils

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Hedda Törneman; [2021]
    Keywords : CNF; cellulose nanofibrils; xerogels; aerogels; cross-linking; porous materials; polymers;

    Abstract : Cellulose nanofibrils are a biobased and renewable material with potential to be used in many different applications. Such applications include air filtration, absorption of liquids, and thermal insulation.  To be used for these applications the cellulose nanofibrils must form a porous and dry material. READ MORE

  6. 5. Biobased carbon aerogels incorporated with zeolite nanoplates for carbon dioxide adsorption

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Maria Harila; [2021]
    Keywords : biobased; carbon aerogel; lignin; cellulose nanofiber; adsorption; carbon dioxide; zeolite nanoplate;

    Abstract : Over the last 100 years there has been an increase of greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4 and N2O) in the atmosphere. These gases cause several problems with the climate on Earth, such as increasing problems with extreme weather. One way to decrease the outlet of carbon dioxide is by adsorption and capture of CO2.
