  1. 1. Methanobacterium cauma sp. nov., a hydrogenotrophic, halotolerant methanogen from an active serpintinization system at Chimaera seep

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Aubree Stephens; [2023]
    Keywords : methanogen; archaea; hydrogenotroph; halotolerant; Methanobacterium; Chimaera seep; methanogenesis;

    Abstract : The archaeal branch of life represents some of the oldest life forms on Earth. Archaea are believed to have diverged from Prokaryotes roughly 3.5 billion years ago and it’s theorized that biological methane production started around this time as well. This would make methanogenesis one of the oldest metabolisms on our planet. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigation of enzymatic mediated CO2 capture : A computational study of enzymatic systems

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

    Author : Amelie Grunditz; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Enzymes converting CO2 can be helpful with battling today’s environmental problems with global warming due to greenhouse gases. It can also contribute to make industrial processes cheaper and cleaner. During this project, enzymes have been studied to understand the process better. READ MORE

  3. 3. The initial steps in the pursuit to diagnose trimethylaminuria with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and UniSpray ionization at CMMS

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Cristian Fransson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Trimethylaminuria is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a decreased oxidation capacity of trimethylamine to trimethylamine-N-oxide in the liver. The condition is diagnosed by estimating concentrations of trimethylamine and trimethylamine-N-oxide in human urine and then evaluating their respective creatinine ratios and the oxidation efficiency percentage.

  4. 4. Monitoring illicit drugs of abuse in wastewater from Umeå, Örebro, Örebro University and Örebro University Hospital

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Tove Slettvoll; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Illicit drugs constitute a class of contaminants whose emissions to the environment has drawn attention due their potent pharmacological and biological activities. The monitoring of illicit drugs in wastewater and surface waters provides a powerful tool to investigate the presence, trends and to estimate the consumption of these psychoactive substances at the community level.

  5. 5. Aqua Ammonia as Secondary Fluid in Ice Rink Applications

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Brianna Kilberg; [2020]
    Keywords : Ice rink; secondary fluid; aqua ammonia; ammonia water; thermophysical properties; corrosion; pressure drop; pumping power; refrigeration;

    Abstract : Refrigerant management is crucial in the attempts to slow climate change. Emissions from the refrigeration sector are primarily due to poor management and unsafe destruction of refrigerants currently in circulation. Safe refrigerant management and improving system operating efficiency can result in a reduction of emissions. READ MORE
