    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Martina Aspegren; [2023]
    Keywords : Water treatment techniques; Ozonation; Moving bed biofilm reactor; Trickling filter; Biological degradation; Lake Mälaren; attenreningstekniker; Ozonering; Biofilmreaktor med rörlig bädd; Biobädd; Biologisk nedbrytning; Mälaren;

    Abstract : Norrvatten produces and delivers drinking water to approximately 700 000 people in the northern part of the Stockholm region in Sweden. In their water treatment plant Görvälnverket, water from Lake Mälaren is purified. During the purification, sludge is produced.

    Author : Linnéa Gustafsson; [2021]
    Keywords : acrylamide; ; breakfast cereals; free asparagine; fruit juice concentrate; sweetener;

    Abstract : Acrylamide is a possible carcinogen to humans, formed upon heat-treatment of carbohydrate-rich foodstuffs via the Maillard reaction. Reducing sugar and the amino acid asparagine are the primary precursors for acrylamide formation, of which free asparagine is the limiting factor. READ MORE

  4. 3. Salt-roasting of snack pellets : a study on the effects of a novel processing technique on product quality attributes and acrylamide content

  5. 4. Acrylamide in oat products : a literature survey

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Edvin Nåbo; [2019]
    Keywords : oats; acrylamide; free asparagine;

    Abstract : Acrylamide can be formed during heating of cereals. Oats have the second highest acrylamide forming potential of rye, wheat, barley and oats. Several studies have found high levels of acrylamide in oat products that exceed the benchmark limits within the EU. These limits might be strict limits in future which every food producer needs to follow. READ MORE

  6. 5. Polyakrylamidhydrogel : en vetenskapligt baserad behandling av osteoartrit hos häst?
