  1. 1. Sustainable food packaging based on polyhydroxyalkanoate

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

    Author : Safana Al-Ashor; [2024]
    Keywords : Biopolymers; Sustainable food packaging; Circular economy; Biobased and biodegradable materials; Food packaging; Processing technologies; Food quality; Shelf-life;

    Abstract : The Norwegian Food Research Institute (Nofima) and the University of Borås worked together to develop this project. The commonly used packaging materials pose a serious threat to the environment, as they are produced from nonrenewable crude oil and cannot decompose naturally. READ MORE

  2. 2. Formulation and characterisation of novel edible-packaging for fruits and vegetables

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Lola Sutton; Katerina Papa; [2023]
    Keywords : algae; edible packaging; carrageenan; cucumber; REL; oxidative stress; antioxidants; food engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master's thesis investigated the potential of algae raw materials, specifically k-carrageenan and to a lesser extent alginate, as film-forming ingredients for the development of a novel edible packaging solutions. The project involved the testing and characterisation of several active ingredients of algal and plant origins both as extracts and as ingredients in films. READ MORE

  3. 3. Prediction of Plastic Fragments in Recycled Paper Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Fidan Alieva; [2023]
    Keywords : Near-infrared spectroscopy; paper packaging; barrier materials; recycling; multivariate data analysis; Nära-infraröd spektroskopi; pappersförpackningar; barriärmaterial; återvinning; multivariat dataanalys;

    Abstract : Sustainability has gained a lot of attention in the field of research. Researchers and consumers both prioritize sustainability and environmental issues over previously dominant materials, such as plastic. Packaging and disposable items that used to be made of plastic have largely been replaced with paper. READ MORE

  4. 4. Flashlamp Annealing for Improved Ferroelectric Junctions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Theodor Blom; [2023]
    Keywords : Flashlamp annealing; ferroelectricity; hafnia oxide; III-V semiconductor; thermal annealing; device performance; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The effects of flashlamp annealing (FLA) on the quality of ferroelectric HfxZr1–xO2 (HZO) interfaces, integrated on InAs substrates, are evaluated. For the integration of ferroelectric HZO on III-V semiconductors the crystallization via rapid thermal processing (RTP) can severely degrade the HZO/III-V interface. READ MORE

  5. 5. Mathematical modeling and analysis of hot carrier solar cells

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Benjamin van Dijk; [2023]
    Keywords : solar cell; nanowires; hot carrier; nanowire; analysis; mathematical model; trends; fermi function; reservoirs; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the analysis of a mathematical model of a nanowire based hot carrier solar cell. The relevance of the topic comes from the energy crisis society is facing today. Firstly, we discuss the basic principle of hot carrier solar cells and discuss several energy loss factors. READ MORE
