  1. 1. Modelling Micropollutant Removal Through Ozonation in Wastewater

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Maximiliano Andrés Oportus Foster; [2023]
    Keywords : Micropollutants; water reuse; wastewater treatment models; ozonation; computer modeling; water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Proper management of water resources is a key to climate change adaptation and resilience in modern societies. Adequate treatment of wastewater is essential for ensuring the sustainability of the water cycle and the health of the environment and the ecosystems that inhabit it. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigation of the impact of different sugar compositions on the moisture absorption of hard candy when exposed to a humid environment

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Gila van den Eijnde; [2023]
    Keywords : Hard candy; Sugar composition; Hygroscopicity; Moisture absorption; Shelf life; Product stability; Food technology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Hard candy is hygroscopic, implying that hard candy readily absorbs moisture from the environment, resulting in adverse changes in the texture and appearance of the candy. This thesis investigates the impact of different sugar compositions on the moisture absorption of hard candy when exposed to a humid environment. READ MORE

  4. 3. Identifying factors that correlate with Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal upsets at Lundåkraverket

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Rounak Niranjan; [2021]
    Keywords : Enhanced biological phosphorus removal; polyphosphate accumulating organisms; glycogen accumulating organisms; sludge content in aeration basin; nitrates in aeration basin; pH of incoming water; principal component analysis; pairwise correlations; inhibition factors;

    Abstract : The Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal (EBPR) process is characterized as the most sustainable process to remove phosphorus from wastewater albeit with high variability in performance efficiency. Thus, unpredictable upsets in the EBPR system is the norm across several wastewater treatment plants throughout Sweden, forcing the hand of the operators to dose higher volume of chemicals to reach the effluent requirements.

  5. 4. Development of headspace solid phase microextraction gas chromatography mass spectrometry method for analysis of volatile organic compounds in board samples : Correlation study between chromatographic data and flavor properties

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

    Author : Thea Zethelius; [2021]
    Keywords : Solid phase microextraction SPME ; method development; volatile organic compounds VOCs ; food contact material FCM ; flavor experience; design of experiment DoE ; multivariate analysis;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis work was to develop a headspace solid phase microextraction gas chromatography mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) method to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in board samples and to statistically investigate potential correlation between chromatographic data and flavor data obtained from a trained panel. The developed method would hopefully serve as a complement to the already established routine analyses at Stora Enso and gain an increased understanding of which VOCs in the board influence its flavor properties.

  6. 5. Characterization of the Electrical Resistivity and Water Sorption Properties of a Semiconducting Swelling Tape

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Maria Nicte Polanco Olsen; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : I närvaro av fukt och lokaliserade fältförbättringar kan vattenträd utvecklas inom polymerisoleringen av HV subsea kraftkablar. Vattenträd tenderar att växa obemärligt och försämra isolationsegenskaperna med tiden. Fuktigheten i isoleringen kan effektivt reduceras genom applicering av halvledande svällningsband. READ MORE
