  1. 1. Fouling modelling in a UHT unit based on plant data.

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

    Author : Thai Lam; [2023]
    Keywords : UHT; dairy; tubular heat exchanger; fouling development; fouling removal; food engineering; Technology and Engineering; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Abstract : Heat treatment of dairy products is essential for food safety, one way to perform this is ultra-high temperature (UHT) processing. During the process, macronutrients and minerals form fouling deposits which impairs heat transfer. Eventually the fouling needs to be removed chemically by alkaline and acidic detergents. READ MORE

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

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    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

  3. 3. Membrane screening to identify optimal properties when separating organic matter from Bolmen water

    Abstract : In many places across the northern hemisphere, drinking water treatment plants (WTPs) need to avert the effects of deteriorating quality in surface water sources caused by increasing lev-els of natural organic matter (NOM). The two major factors responsible for this phenomenon, also called brownification, are the greenhouse effect and changes in soil acidification. READ MORE
