  1. 6. Towards finding model pollutants for predicting CEC adsorption on biochars : The suitability of using dyes as proxies for CEC removal efficiency to enable wastewater reuse

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Alexandra Aveling; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study evaluated the use of common dyes as model pollutants for adsorption on biochar. Pollutant removal efficiency of five dyes and three CECs on three different biochars (SWP-550, SWP-700, NDG-SW) was evaluated, using both UV-VIS spectrophotometry and LC-MS/MS, to examine similarities and differences in adsorption performance.

  2. 7. Exploration of ways to utilize wheat chaff through fungal substrate conversion : a base for animal feed or substrate for cultivation of edible mushrooms

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Caroline Sandberg; [2022]
    Keywords : harvest residues; chaff; oyster mushroom; agro-waste reduction; mushroom production;

    Abstract : The shift towards a more sustainable food system emphasises a need for increased circularity and valorisation of available resources. Chaff constitutes one of three main fractions obtained upon harvest of certain crops, during which it is generally discarded on the field. READ MORE

  3. 8. Alkaline Protein Extraction of Oat Bran and Oat Endosperm Flour - the Effect of pH during Extraction and Precipitation

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

    Author : Bella Nielsen; Alva Rodhe; [2021]
    Keywords : Oats; Protein; Alkaline extraction; Protein extraction; Plant-based proteins; Oat protein; Oat bran; Oat endosperm; Iso-electric precipitation; Food engineering; Technology and Engineering; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : An increased understanding of the negative impacts of animal-based proteins, on both environment and health, has led to a rise in the demand for plant-based proteins. To meet the demands, conventional crops must be efficiently utilized. READ MORE

  4. 9. GAC filter Design Criteria for Wastewater Treatment for Removal of Organic Micropollutants – A Literature Review

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Bhargav Reddy Elavarthi; [2021]
    Keywords : micropollutants; activated carbon filtration; empty bed contact time EBCT ; pharmaceuticals; breakthrough curves; adsorption; PFOS; carbon use; water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is nowadays suggested as a fourth (quaternary) treatment step at municipal wastewater treatment plants to remove certain chemicals and particularly organic micropollutants (OMPs). This work investigated the different factors that affect the performance of the GAC filter for the removal of micropollutants in a municipal wastewater treatment plant. READ MORE

  5. 10. Improved prediction of biogas production at Uddebo wastewater treatment plant : Substrate modelling in SIMCA

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Isak Gullman; [2021]
    Keywords : Anaerobic digestion; Biogas; Industrial waste; Modelling; Sewage sludge;

    Abstract : Anaerobic digestion is a complex process, dependent on multiple factors, which can be made more stable and efficient with the help of process models. A more stable process could reduce biogas torching, which increases the amount of renewable energy available for heat- and electricity production and vehicle fuel. READ MORE
