2. The effects of trace elements on the microbial communities of thermophilic biogas production
University essay from SLU/Dept. of MicrobiologyAbstract : The increasing need for alternatives to fossil fuels and traditional waste management systems can be simultaneously addressed by the production of biogas using organic waste as input material. The biogas produced can be used directly for energy production or upgraded to increase methane purity for use in the engines of motor vehicles. READ MORE

3. Sources of organic carbon fueling carbon emissions from tropical reservoirs
University essay fromAbstract : For a sustainable energy supply, it is of importance to be aware about the environmental impacts from the different energy sources. Hydroelectric reservoirs in tropical areas have been found to emit more greenhouse gases (GHG) than reservoirs from boreal regions. READ MORE

4. Cleaning process of abattoir wastewater with focus on bacterial pathogens
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public HealthAbstract : This study was conducted at the City Abattoir in Kampala, Uganda to evaluate the cleaning process, with focus on bacterial pathogens, in a pilot scale integrated bioprocess. This consisted of four steps: anaerobic sequencing batch reactors; aerobic/anoxic sequencing batch reactors; a high performance temperature controlled methanogenesis digester and a constructed wetland.

5. Observation of methanogenesis and potential iron-dependent anaerobic oxidation of methane in old lake sediments, a study of two boreal forest lakes.
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Organic and inorganic carbon can enter inland waters in different ways, and often a considerable amount of this carbon is coming from terrestrial input. Once this terrestrial carbon enters a lake, the carbon may be degraded, mineralized or eventually buried in the sediment. READ MORE
