  1. 1. Designing intermediate community use during Brownfield phytoremediation in the post-industrial urban redevelopment project : a Case Study in Nyhamnen, Malmö

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Rie Chimura; [2023]
    Keywords : applicability analysis of phytoremediation; brownfield; intermediate community use; landscape architecture; post-industrial city of Malmö; sense of place;

    Abstract : Malmö, once flourished with industries, has been transitioning since its decline in the 1980s. The redevelopment of Nyhamnen, one of the post-industrial areas, started in 2018 to accommodate the expected increasing population until 2050. The City of Malmö focuses on redeveloping within instead of expanding the city. READ MORE

  3. 2. Remediation of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in contaminated water by sorption to pine- and spruce bark

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Rebecka Ayranci Dahlberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances; sorption; pine bark; spruce bark; ultra-short-chain PFAS; short-and long-chain PFAS; elemental analysis; field-test;

    Abstract : PFAS are anthropogenic substances used in many different industrial operations and products because of their unique properties. Due to their negative impact on human health and environmental bioaccumulative characteristics different authorities have addressed the issue. In Sweden the limit is4 ng/L for four different PFAS in drinking water. READ MORE

  4. 3. Electrochemical oxidation of PFAS in soil conditions : Using Boron-doped diamond electrodes and iron electrodes

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Alexander Öhberg; [2022]
    Keywords : PFAS ELECTROCHEMICAL OXIDATION IN-SITU DESTRUCTION MINERALISATION REMOVAL;

    Abstract : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a rising topic in the field of contaminated sites around the world, with destruction of these being an area in dire need of innovation. Previous experiments of destructive character have been proven efficient using boron doped diamond electrodes (BDD) in small scale electrochemical cells. READ MORE

  5. 4. Long-term Effect of Metallic Iron Sorbents on Arsenic Mobility in an Anoxic Aquifer : An assessment based on long-term column experiments

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Stéphanie Nyström; [2022]
    Keywords : Zero valent iron; ZVI; Remediation; Anoxic; Column tests; ICP-MS;

    Abstract : Zero valent iron (ZVI) sorbents have successfully remediated soils burdened with different groups of contaminants. When working to alleviate arsenic (As) contamination, the location-specific subsurface chemistry greatly affects the efficiency of the sorbents as it controls the speciation of As and the transformation of the ZVI, as well as the interaction between these (remediating mechanisms).

  6. 5. Stabilisation of arsenic in contaminated soil using iron distributed by electricity

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Kajsa Engström; [2021]
    Keywords : Chemical stabilisation; soil remediation; contaminated soil; in situ pilot scale; sacrificial iron;

    Abstract : In Boden, northern part of Sweden, there is a site called Solgårdarna which has been used for wood impregnation. The activities on the site have led to soil contamination with chrome (Cr), copper (Cu) and arsenic (As), where the arsenic contamination is the most problematic. READ MORE
