  1. 6. Selected PFAS in the water treatment at the waste-to-energy plant in Umeå : Investigating concentration and composition of selected PFAS in different water treatment steps

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Amanda Carlund; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The present study investigated the changes in concentration and composition of five selected PFAS substances in the water treatment at the waste-to-energy plant in Umeå. The five PFAS were PFHxA, PFHpA, PFOA, PFHxS and PFOS. As PFAS exists in a variety of consumer products, they will to some extent end up in waste incineration. READ MORE

  3. 7. Additives in a steam engine to decrease friction : Friction testing of solid lubricants in powder form

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Author : Viktor Lange; [2023]
    Keywords : Tribology; friction; wear; steam; steam engine; ranotor; invencon; invencon AB; steel; contact mechanics; hexagonal boron nitride; molybdenum disulfide; tungsten disulfide; lubricants; solid lubricants; Tribologi; friktion; nötning; ånga; ångmotor; stål; kontaktmekanik; smörjning; smörjmedel; fasta smörjmedel;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate the coefficient of friction between steel on steel contacts with the addition of solid lubricants such as h-BN, WS2, MoS2 in powder form, in dry conditions and wet conditions. More specifically, the purpose is to enhance the sliding between the piston rings and cylinder block in a modern high temperature steam engine developed by RANOTOR. READ MORE

  4. 8. Stability improvement to a ruthenium catalyst for partial oxidation of methane

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Melker Axelsson; [2023]
    Keywords : catalysis; reaction engineering; kinetics; partial oxidation; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Catalytic partial oxidation of methane (CPOM) is an energy-efficient alternative to steam reforming, the currently prevailing method for energy production from natural gas. Hulteberg Chemistry & Engineering AB has developed a catalyst for the partial oxidation of methane into syngas, for use in solid oxide fuel cells. READ MORE

  5. 9. Research of appropriate luminance level of monitor screens in workplace

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Informatik

    Author : Mengfei Wang; Shiqi Shu; [2023]
    Keywords : Screen brightness; Paradigm Color; Lighting conditions; Human eye preference; skärmens ljusstyrka; Paradigm färg; ljusförhållanden; Mänskliga ögonpreferenser;

    Abstract : MÅL: Huvudsyftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur naturligt ljus påverkar det mänskliga ögats preferens för skärmens ljusstyrka när man tittar på en datorskärm. METODER: Tre experiment genomförs för att mäta i vilken utsträckning solljus förändrar bakgrundsljuset i form av solstrålning. READ MORE

  6. 10. Localized and extended states in finite-sized mosaic Wannier-Stark lattices

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Emrah Tortumlu; [2023]
    Keywords : Applied Physics; Condensed matter physics; quantum technology; quantum nanophotonics; localization; mobility edge; phase transition; Tillämpad Fysik; Kondenserade materiens fysik; kvantteknologi; kvantnanofotonik; lokalisering; fasövergång;

    Abstract : Anderson localization occurs when an otherwise conductive solid becomes insulatingdue to a sufficiently large degree of disorder in the medium. The electron band energy(as a function of disorder) at which this transition between extended and localizedelectron states occur is called the mobility edge (ME) and is energy-dependent only in3-dimensional systems.
