  1. 11. Comparison of two methods in deriving aquatic predicted no-effect concentration (PNEC) for α-Amylcinnamaldehyde, 1-Tridecanol and Paracetamol

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

    Author : Emma Holmén; [2019]
    Keywords : PNEC; Environmental risk assessment; ERA; α-Amylcinnamaldehyde; 1- tridecanol; paracetamol; Species Sensitivity Distributions; SSD; ECHA; Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : This study is evaluating two methods in order to calculate predicted no effect concentrations (PNECs) used in environmental risk assessment for three chemicals (α-Amylcinnamaldehyde, 1-tridecanol and paracetamol). The methods used are Species Sensitivity Distributions (SSD) and the guideline from European Chemicals Agency (ECHA): “Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment”. READ MORE

  2. 12. Development of a configurable model for temperature distribution estimation in multifamily houses with limited amount of sensors

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad termodynamik och kylteknik

    Author : Federica Bozzi; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The biggest environmental challenge of the current century is limiting the CO2 emissions in order to contrast the global warming and keep the temperature increase below 2.0K with respect to the pre-industrial age. For succeeding in this goal, significant changes are required in all sectors, including the energy one. READ MORE

  3. 13. Dissolution and fibre spinning of cellulose from an ionic liquid

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Erika Andersson; [2018]
    Keywords : Cellulose; scattering; ionic liquid; dissolution; regenerated cellulose fibre; structure-property relationship; materials chemistry; materialkemi; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Regenerated cellulose fibres can become a sustainable alternative to cotton and polyester in textile applications. One method of producing such is dissolution of cellulose in an ionic liquid (IL) and regeneration through air-gap spinning. READ MORE

  4. 14. Multi-objective optimization and performance evaluation of active, semi-active and passive suspensions for forestry machines

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Federico Baez; [2014]
    Keywords : Forestry machine; suspension; multi-objective optimization; forwarder; pendulum arm; active; semi-active; passive; XT28; Multibody Dynamics; soil-friendly; off-road; Skogsmaskin; fjädring; optimering; skotare; pendelarm; aktiv; semi-aktiv; passiv; XT28; flerkroppsdynamik; markvänlig; off-road;

    Abstract : The development of forestry machines is currently heading towards new solutions that reduce their impact on the environment and in particular on the soft forest soil in which the machines operate. The terrain conditions that forestry machines encounter in their regular duties can be very rough, and if the vehicle-ground interaction is not properly controlled cumulative damage can progressively aggravate these conditions and potentially render a route or a zone impracticable, apart from causing a detrimental effect in the forest environment.

  5. 15. Effects of Heat Transfer Fluid from District Heating Networks on Activated Sludge : A respirometric analysis using a dilution series to assess disruption of biological treatment processes in wastewater treatment facilities

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för biologi och miljö (BOM)

    Author : Victor Bergseije; [2014]
    Keywords : activated sludge; respirometry; district heating; industrial waste water;

    Abstract : District heating has a long standing tradition in Sweden and today it is the most common way of producing and transporting heat. A District heating system (DH system) is divided into three parts: a production facility, distribution network (DH network) and one more heat stations. READ MORE
