1. 1. Sustainable Polymer Production: Investigating Synthesis and Copolymerization of Cyclic Ketene Acetals

   University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

   Author : Soufian Bourraman; Stella Staffas; Adam Brandt; Simon Isaksson; [2023]
   Keywords : Monomers; polymers; radical; radical ring opening polymerization; polymerization; BMDO; MMA; MVL; MBL; comonomer; copolymer; rROP; sustainable; biobased; degradable; monomer synthesis; plastic; polyester; bulk; solution; NMR; FTIR; TGA; DSC; SEC; hydrolysis; molecular weight; diol; ester bonds;

   Abstract : The large amount of non-degradable plastic waste has become a significant environmental concern, leading to an increased need for degradable plastics. Here in, to create degradable polymers, polyesters were produced through radical ring opening polymerization using cyclic ketene acetals. READ MORE

3. 2. A Greener Way to Go: Climate Adaptation Imperatives for Western Deathcare

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

   Author : Amandine Clairo; [2022]
   Keywords : Death; Funerals; Deathcare; Burial; Cremation; COVID-19; Climate Change; Climate Change Adaptation; Natural Burial; Alkaline Hydrolysis; Natural Organic Reduction; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Death is a universal human experience, yet the ecological impact of the care and disposition of dead bodies is rarely considered, due in part to cultural taboos surrounding the physical reality of death and decomposition. If negative environmental consequences are to be limited, deathcare will need to adapt. READ MORE

4. 3. Amino Acid Analysis : Establishment of a GC-FID method for Amino Acid Analysis in Legumes

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kemi och biomedicin (KOB)

   Author : Ludvig Karlsson; [2022]
   Keywords : Amino Acids; GC-FID; Hydrolysis; Legumes; Aminosyror; GC-FID; Hydrolys; Baljväxter;

   Abstract : Demands for plant-based diets sufficient in all required amino acids are increasing due to health and environmental advantages. As legumes offer a complementing source of quality protein to the already heavily consumed cereals, methods for determining amino acid compositions in legumes are needed. READ MORE

5. 4. Volatile fatty acid production and application as external carbon source for denitrification

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Cora Michelle Döhler; [2020]
   Keywords : VFAs; co-fermentation; primary sludge; food waste; denitrification; external carbon source; MBBR;

   Abstract : By rethinking wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) as resource recovery facilities, it is possible to de- velop the next generation of WWTPs. Moreover, it allows to accomplish environmental goals, such as reducing the CO2 footprint, and comply with increasing effluent standards regarding the concentration of nitrogen in a more sustainable way.

6. 5. Preparation and evaluation of arabinoxylan based prebiotics

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

   Author : Mohammad Abu Mursalin Sajib; [2018]
   Keywords : Arabinoxylan; Probiotics; Prebiotics; Food; Xylanase; Brewer s spent grain; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Prebiotics are non-digestible carbohydrates that selectively stimulate the growth and activity of health promoting bacteria in the colon, resulting in homeostasis to the gut environment. It is considered to be the solution of many health-related diseases such as type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. READ MORE
