  1. 1. The impact of CO2 fertilisation on foliage in West and East Africa

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Gaetane Demyttenaere; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical geography and ecosystem analysis; CO2 fertilisation; semi-arid ecosystems; remote sensing; Normalised Difference Vegetation Index; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Anthropogenic impact on terrestrial ecosystems continues to grow as we further enhance atmospheric Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) concentrations. The changing climatic conditions and direct influence of CO₂ on vegetation has a big impact on ecosystem functions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Enhancing Mineral Carbonation of Olivine with CO2

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Ikaros Altantzis; [2023]
    Keywords : CO2 sequestration; Dissolution rate; Mineral carbonation; Olivine; Particle size; CO2-inlagring; Upplösningshastighet; Mineral kolsyrning; Olivin; Partikelstorlek;

    Abstract : Koldioxidutsläpp (CO2) från energiproduktionsindustrin och transportsektorn globalt påverkar miljön negativt. Länder har enats om att minska utsläppen för att nå målet om en genomsnittlig temperaturökning på 1,5 °C till 2030. READ MORE

  3. 3. Separation and acidification of digested animal manure : properties of the future organic fertilizers

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Marie Björs; [2023]
    Keywords : Digestate; Eutrophication; Farmers’ survey; Plasma activation; Screw press;

    Abstract : Agricultural areas with a high animal density contribute to eutrophication in waterbodies and seas worldwide due to accumulation of nutrients around animal farms. Animal manure is heavy and bulky, thus unpractical to transport long distances and new techniques have been developed to refine animal manure and make it easier to transport. READ MORE

  4. 4. Climate impact of bioH2 production from biogas using CO2 mineralization for carbon capture and storage

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Energy and Technology

    Author : Hera Harðardóttir; [2022]
    Keywords : carbon capture and storage; carbon dioxide mineralization; biohydrogen production; global warming potential; greenhouse gases;

    Abstract : Carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations in the atmosphere are increasing and are now higher than they have ever been, mostly because of CO2 released from burning fossil fuels for energy. Global energy demand will continue to rise in the future, resulting in increased carbon emissions. READ MORE

  5. 5. Carbon dioxide in agricultural streams : Magnitude and patterns of an understudied atmospheric carbon source

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : My Osterman; [2018]
    Keywords : Carbon dioxide; streams; agriculture; catchment; floating chamber; Kendall s Tau; CORINE Land Cover;

    Abstract : The role of streams in the global carbon budget was for a long time neglected, since they were considered passive transporters of carbon from land to sea. However, studies have shown that streams are often supersaturated in carbon dioxide (CO2), making them sources of carbon to the atmosphere. READ MORE
