  1. 26. Effects of cover crops on nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions in cereal cropping

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Khadija Aziz; [2022]
    Keywords : cover crops; nitrous oxide; C sequestration; greenhouse gases; off-season emissions; freeze-thaw cycles;

    Abstract : More than 60% of anthropogenic nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions are attributed to agricultural activities. N2O production in soils highly depends on the N availability along with other factors such as soil moisture content, which provide suitable conditions for nitrification and denitrification.

  3. 27. Modeling self-heating and dry matter loss in large-scale biomass storage

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Johan Qviström; [2022]
    Keywords : Modell; biomass; storage; self-heating; dry matter loss; Modell; biomassa; förvaring; uppvärmning; torrsubstansförlust;

    Abstract : Materialförluster och självuppvärmning är ett vanligt problem vid lagring av biomassa i stor skala. Biomassan som lagras bryts med tiden ned av mikroorganismer och kemiska processer vilket resulterar i en förlust av torrsubstans, ofta kring 1-4% per månad. READ MORE

  4. 28. Fallstudie av kompostbäddar till mjölkkor i Sverige : hur skötseln och ventilationen påverkar juverhälsan

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Sara Gustavsson; Elin Isaksson; [2022]
    Keywords : vattenavgivning; E. coli; Klebsiella; mastit; pH; temperatur; kokomfort;

    Abstract : Kompostbäddar är ett inhysningssystem där en stor yta med ströbädd kultiveras två gånger per dag. Genom att tillföra syre ner i bädden startar en värmeavgivande, aerob komposteringsprocess där organiskt material bryts ner av mikroorganismer. Bädden strös vanligtvis med spån, vilket blandas med avföring och urin från korna. READ MORE

  5. 29. Laboratory Investigation of Quarry Fines for Use in the Construction Industry

    University essay from KTH/Jord- och bergmekanik

    Author : Antonia Filippidi; [2022]
    Keywords : quarry fines; water content; optimum moisture content; maximum dry density; bearing capacity;

    Abstract : Quarry fines are by-products of the aggregate extraction and productionprocesses. Because such fine material cannot be marketed, it becomes aburden for the aggregate industry, resulting in stockpiles of financiallyunexploited material. READ MORE
