  1. 21. Limiting microplastic pollution from municipal wastewater treatment : A circular economic approach

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Jordy van Osch; [2020]
    Keywords : Microplastics; circular economy; wastewater treatment plant; resource recovery; Multi-criteria analysis;

    Abstract : The increasing amount of microplastics found in the environment have underscored the urgency to identify, develop and deploy scenarios in which municipal wastewater treatment plants (MWWTPs) limit the release of urban microplastics into the environment. Simultaneously, the global trend towards a circular economy has defined the conditions for these scenarios in relation to the water-energy- nutrient nexus. READ MORE

  3. 22. Development of a Water Activity Control and Reaction Monitoring System for Acidolysis and Transesterification Reactions using Immobilized Lipases in a Rotating Bed Reactor

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Author : Eimantas Gladkauskas; [2019]
    Keywords : Enzyme; Enzymes; Immobilized enzyme; bioreactor; rotating bed reactor; acidolysis; transesterification; arduino; water activity; thermodynamic water activity; Enzyme activity; automatic reaction tracking; reaction tracking; biotechnology; electrical engineering; relative humidity; spinchem; enzymatic synthesis; water activity control; process automation; lipases; lipase; bioteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Controlled water activity in an enzymatic reaction can influence enzyme activity and productivity. A small layer of water around an enzyme gives it a required flexibility to catalyze reactions at a higher rate in contrast with the one that is dry (Adlercreutz, Dicko, Larsson, & Månsson, 2017).

  4. 23. Production and harvesting of volatile jet fuel precursors from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Johan Sjölander; [2019]
    Keywords : Jet fuel; isoprene; isobutene; cyanobacteria; solar fuel; photobioreactor; photosynthesis;

    Abstract : The world is currently faced with the enormous challenge of slowing down human triggered global warming. As the global energy demand increases, there is an urgent need for renewable and carbon-neutral fuel-sources. READ MORE

  5. 24. Intensification of lignocellulosic bioethanol production process using multi-staged membrane bioreactors

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

    Author : Clarisse Uwinez; [2019]
    Keywords : Interconnected continuous hydrolysis and fermentation; lignocellulosic bioethanol; Membrane bioreactors; process intensification; lignin recovery; membrane fouling.;

    Abstract : The exploitation of lignocellulosic materials with the aim of producing high value-added products will potentially counteract concerns related to the depletion of fossil resources or exponential population growth. Bioethanol produced from lignocellulosic agriculture residue exhibits promising alternative to the petroleum-based fossil fuel which reduces net emission of greenhouse gases (GHG). READ MORE

  6. 25. Modelling of a sulfate reducing and metal recovery process, for application within treatment of industrial wastewater

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : Kristina Broberg; [2019]
    Keywords : Biotechnology; Wastewater treatment; Process modelling; Bioprocess technology; Sulfate reducing bacteria; Metal sulfides; Simulation; Matlab; SuperPro Designer; Bioteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Denna masteruppsats syftar till utvecklandet av en industriellt, fullskalig modell över en vattenreningsprocess som syftar till simultan sulfatreduktion och tungmetallåtervinning från processvatten vid gruvdrift. Den mängd sulfat som finns tillgänglig i lakvattnet, omvandlas till vätesulfid med hjälp av sulfatreducerande bakterier (SRB). READ MORE
