  1. 1. Alternative oxidase respiration in the mycorrhizal fungus Laccaria bicolor

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Hilda Mikaelsson; [2019]
    Keywords : L. bicolor; mycel; ektomykorrhiza; cellandning; AOX; alternativt oxidas; cytokromoxidas; cyanid; mycelium; ectomychorriza; respiration; alternative oxidase; cytochrome oxidase; salicylhydroxamic acid; n-propyl gallate; cyanide;

    Abstract : The temperature on Earth is rising, and one of the main drivers is anthropogen-ic greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2). The world’s forests act as carbon sinks, binding carbon into their biomass. The net carbon assimilation is determined by the uptake and release of CO2 through the processes of photo-synthesis and respiration. READ MORE

  2. 2. Reversible Modification Of Flexural Rigidity On Dry Archaeological Leather From Wet Anaerobic Burial Sites: An Herbal Method Irma

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för kulturvård

    Author : Irma Wennerstrand; [2015-06-30]
    Keywords : cherry laurel leaves; flexural rigidity; archaeological leather; aldehyde; benzaldehyde; cyanogenic glycosides;

    Abstract : This work is based on a treatment reported in the article “Über der Weichen trockengefallener Alkohol und Formalinpräparate, Herbarblätter und von Tapagewebe” in Der Präparator from 2001 by Klaus Weichsler and co-authors. A series of experiments were performed to investigate the described effect of cherry laurel leaves and the compounds emitted therefrom upon flexural rigidity of dry archaeological leather from wet burial sites, which upon uncontrolled drying becomes rigid.

  3. 3. The application of resistivity and IP-measurements as investigation tools at contaminated sites : a case study from Kv. Renen 13, Varberg, SW Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Sofia Åkesson; [2015]
    Keywords : geophysics; resistivity; induced polarization; contaminated site; hydrogeology; trichloroethene; TCE; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : An old industry estate, Kv. Renen 13, is located in central Varberg, southwest Sweden, and is known from previous investigations as highly polluted. READ MORE

  4. 4. Wastewater to renewable energy at a tapioca factory in Vietnam

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Anna Gustafsson; [2015]
    Keywords : Vietnam; biogas; tapioca; cassava; anaerobic digestion; wastewater treatment; minor field study; environmental engineering; vattenförsörjningsteknik; avloppsteknik; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Anaerobic digestion is a cost-effective way of treating high organic content wastewater, as it efficiently removes large amounts of organics at the same time as biogas is produced. The production of starch from cassava roots, named tapioca, creates large amounts of high organic content wastewater and uses large amounts of thermal energy for drying the starch. READ MORE

  5. 5. Combination of CFD and evacuation models for determination of FED and FEC levels

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Beom Jin Jeong; [2014]
    Keywords : evacuation; CFD; FED; FEC; FDS6; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Previously developed methods to evaluate FED and FEC level via combination of CFD and evacuation simulation have been verified by new features of FDS6 and extended to fire cases involving common building materials. The FED levels calculated by the conversion factor [1] based on carbon monoxide are compared with the direct calculation by way of mass fraction of carbon monoxide, hydrogen cyanide and carbon dioxide.
