  1. 1. Biopolymers processed and used as enzyme carriers

    University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

    Author : Dániel Mészáros; [2023]
    Keywords : Biobased materials; plasticized sodium alginate; water stability; extraction kinetics; enzyme carrier; Biobaserade material; Mjukgjort natriumalginat; Vattenstabilitet; extraktionskinetik; Enzymbärare;

    Abstract : Syftet med detta masterprojekt var att undersöka möjligheten att använda biobaserat, mjukgjort natriumalginat (NaAlg) som enzymbärare. Alginaterna görs traditionellt bearbetbara genom att tillsätta olika mjukgörare, såsom polyoler (glycerol, sorbitol, etc.), i detta arbete användes glycerol. READ MORE

  3. 2. Creating A Chicken Analogue with Mycoprotein

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

    Author : Jiayi Zheng; [2022]
    Keywords : meat analogue; mycoprotein; product development; sodium alginate; food technology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : To meet the growing demand of meat alternatives, this project was dedicated to creating a chicken analogue prototype with mycoprotein. Within the project, two approaches of alginate gelation, external (diffusion) crosslinking and internal crosslinking, were studied in this particular food matrix. READ MORE

  4. 3. 3D printing of alginates into tubular structures resembling human airways

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Tomasz Syski; [2021]
    Keywords : Tissue Engineering; Bioprinting; FRESH; Bioengineering; Alginate; Bioink; Biomaterial ink; Biomaterial; Airway; Regeneration; Hydrogel; 3D printing.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Tissue shortage for lung transplantation remains a problem worldwide as lung transplantation is often the only available option with numerous possible complications. Generating lung tissue ex-vivo has been proposed as one way to potentially overcome this shortage. READ MORE

  5. 4. Ultrasonic Assisted Drying and its Effect on 3D Printability of Minced Beef and Other Foods

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

    Author : Viktor Lindström; [2020]
    Keywords : Drying; Convection drying; Ultrasound; Ultrasonic drying; 3D-Printing; 3D-Printability; Food; Meat; Beef; Food technology; Livsmedelsteknologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this master thesis project was to investigate the impact on drying kinetics of ultrasound during air drying by a new ultrasonic transducer, on which a patent application has been filed by CSIRO. Convection drying using hot air is currently the conventional method of drying in the industry due to its simplicity and low cost. READ MORE

  6. 5. Additive manufacturing of lunar regolith simulant using direct ink writing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

    Author : Billy Grundström; [2020]
    Keywords : 3D printing; additive manufacturing; lunar regolith simulant; european space agency; ESA; in situ resource utilisation; ISRU; direct ink writing; sintering;

    Abstract : In this work, the use of a lunar regolith simulant as feedstock for the direct ink writing additive manufacturing process is explored, the purpose of which is to enable future lunar in-situ resource utilisation. The feasibility of this approach is demonstrated in a laboratory setting by manufacturing objects with different geometries using methyl cellulose or sodium alginate as binding agents and water as liquid phase together with the lunar regolith simulant EAC-1A to create a viscous, printable ‘ink’ that is used in combination with a custom three-axis gantry system to produce green bodies for subsequent sintering.
