  1. 1. Techno-economic analysis and simulation of low temperature district heating networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Ilia Iarkov; [2023]
    Keywords : Low-temperature district heating; Modelica; BTES; LCA; LCC; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. READ MORE

  3. 2. Urban Trees : A case study in central Umeå

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för geografi

    Author : Maria Sundelin; [2023]
    Keywords : Urban trees; canopy cover; i-Tree Canopy;

    Abstract : Urban trees are crucial to a healthy environment. The benefits range from good air quality to storm water management and public health. The aim of this thesis was to study urban trees in Umeå city. Umeå is in a process of densification and has a vision to increase in population to 200 000 by the year 2050. READ MORE

  4. 3. Towards Sustainable Coffee Packaging: A Comparative Study of Current and Future Materials for Zoégas Coffee

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

    Author : Alexandra Karlsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Food packaging; coffee; permeability; recyclability; shelf life.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : An important factor in preventing food waste is the ability to provide a product with a package according to its needs. The packaging material, in turn, needs to be recyclable in order to contribute to a circular use of materials rather than becoming waste. READ MORE

  5. 4. Life Cycle Assessment of Urban Underground Oyster Mushroom Farming

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Emile Lemaitre; [2022]
    Keywords : Life cycle assessment LCA ; Urban mushroom farming; Oyster mushrooms; Urban agriculture; Livscykelanalys LCA ; Urban svampodling; Ostronskivling; Stadsodling;

    Abstract : Global food production has been recognized as the single largest driver of environmental degradation and transgression of planetary boundaries. Providing healthy food sustainably to a growing, mostly urban population will require radical changes to the food system. READ MORE

  6. 5. Towards a Cooper pair splitter in InAs nanowires with crystal-phase defined quantum dots

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Lunds Tekniska Högskola

    Author : Louise Olausson; [2022]
    Keywords : Cooper pair splitter; quantum dot; nanowire; superconductivity; InAs; crystal-phase; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Cooper pair splitting (CPS) is a process in which the two spin-entangled electrons of a Cooper pair in a superconductor are split into two spatially separated electrons. If the separated electrons are still entangled, CPS can be studied to increase the knowledge of non-locality in quantum systems. READ MORE
