  1. 1. Thermal degradation of PFAS in solid matter

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Tuqa Al-Badri; [2024]
    Keywords : PFAS; PFOS; PFOA; thermal degradation; sewage sludge; PFAS; PFOS; PFOA; termisk nedbrytning; avloppsslam;

    Abstract : Per- och Polyfluorerade alkylsubstanser (PFAS) är syntetiskt framställda organiska föreningar som har använts i stor utsträckning i konsument- och industriprodukter. PFAS-substanser besitter attraktiva egenskaper såsom resistans mot väta, fett, fläckar och är dessutom värmetåliga. READ MORE

  3. 2. The development of an acoustic insulation solution using mushroom mycelium as an alternative to synthetic foams

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Industridesign

    Author : Adrián Brito Guerrero de Escalante; [2023]
    Keywords : mycelium composites; design thinking; design for emotion; sustainability; acoustic insulation; fungi; mushrooms.;

    Abstract : In the past decades, humanity is facing the consequences of the irresponsible production of plastics and the expansion of industries such as industrial agriculture, Therefore, the development of new sustainable alternative materials has become increasingly popular as a science field. That is the case of mycelium composites, a biodegradable material made out of agricultural and the thread-like roots of mushrooms called mycelium. READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of protecting coatings for composites in an aero-engine

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Julien Mertz; [2021]
    Keywords : composites; coatings; aerospace; aero-engine; lightning strike; fire; erosion;

    Abstract : Carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials exhibit high specificstrength and stiffness therefore they can be a lightweight alternative to metalliccomponents for the front section of an aero-engine. Despite the benefit of CFRP composite materials for aero-engine applications, there arealso new challenges due to their inherent properties compared to conventionalaerospace metallic structures, such as a lower erosion resistance, poor thermalresistance, and poor electrical conductivity.

  5. 4. MYCELIUM MILLENNIUM

    University essay from Konstfack/Industridesign

    Author : Maria Pita Guerreiro; [2020]
    Keywords : mycelium; fungi; millennium; biofabrication; craft; fungal technology; material revolution; circular design;

    Abstract : MYCELIUM MILLENNIUM imagines a new era in which biological resources, specifically Fungi and Mycelium, are used to grow a collection of objects for everyday domestic rituals, merging biofabrication and traditional craft. The project is an effort to demystify the transformation of an organism to a biomaterial and at the same time raise questions of aesthetics and cultural acceptance. READ MORE

  6. 5. How can artificial intelligence-based sorting solutions support the realisation of circular economy and closed loop recycling of scrap tyres : A case study at Ragn-Sells

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Sara Kilander; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Tyre rubber is a lightweight, elastic, shock- and noise absorbing, UV resistant, insulating material with high tensile strength that perform well in a broad range of temperatures. These are all valuable qualities that point to the benefit of recycling and reusing the material in high quality products and applications for as long as possible. READ MORE
