  1. 16. Sediment chemistry and the potential toxicity to benthic invertebrates in sediments affected by acid sulfate soils : A study on freshwater and marine sediments in Västerbotten, Sweden

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : June Johansson; [2020]
    Keywords : Toxicity; Benthic invertebrates; Acid sulfate soils; Sediment chemistry;

    Abstract : The leakages of metals from acid sulfate soils and their potential toxicity to benthic invertebrates were studied in the sediment profiles of Lillkvasjön and Lövselefjärden - a lake and an estuary known to be affected by acid sulfate soils - in Västerbotten, northern Sweden. The concentrations of 25 different elements were analyzed throughout both sediment profiles through X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) Spectrometer analysis. READ MORE

  2. 17. Climate Footprint on Transportation and Storage of Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Jennifer Erlandsson; Fredrik Tannoury; [2020]
    Keywords : BECCS; CCS; LCA; energy use; leakage; BECCS; CCS; LCA; energi användning; läckage;

    Abstract : In order to combat climate change there is a need to achieve negative emissions. Bio-energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is a promising technology that offers the possibility to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the atmosphere. However, this also implies that the BECCS process needs to store more CO2 than it emits. READ MORE

  3. 18. Comparative LCA between biobasedand petroleum-basedlubricants : Identification of data gaps to consider whenproviding decision support

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Patrik William-Olsson; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This report aimed to provide decision support regarding a potential switch from a petroleum-based lubricant to a bio-based lubricant. The support was supposed to be provided based on a comparative lifecycle assessment (LCA) adjusted to encompass the specific situation of the company under consideration. READ MORE

  4. 19. A Standardized Approach for Water Reduction Measures in Industrial Companies : Organizational Constraints and Effects on Economy and Environment

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

    Author : Joakim Koski; [2019]
    Keywords : industrial water use; water use efficiency; organizational constraints; Water Management Hierarchy; water use reduction; water risks; water reduction effects; economic effects; environmental effects; emissions water supply; lack of incentives; pipe leakage; water metering; industriell vattenanvändning; vattenanvändningseffektivitet; organisatoriska begränsningar; vattenminskningshierarki; effekter av vattenminskning; ekonomiska effekter; vattenläckage; utsläpp vattentillförsel; vattenmätning;

    Abstract : The access of water globally is becoming more strained, why the focus on industrial water use is increasing. The present study examined how industries should approach water efficiency projects, what organizational constraints that should be addressed, and what effects water saving measures have on economic costs, environmental impact and influence from water related risks.

  5. 20. Leakage and Value Chain in Relation to Cruise Industry

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskaper

    Author : Huimin Sun; [2019]
    Keywords : leakage; cruise industry;

    Abstract : The Cruise Lines Association draws an optimistic scenario for cruise, and points out the fastest growing market is in Asia, where Chinese are the main force. Cruise travelling, as a new economic engine, is developing rapidly in China. However, among all the cruise terminals in China mainland, WSICT is the sole profitable port. READ MORE
