  1. 16. Effects of Forest Ditch Cleaning on Surface Water Quality

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Emeli Arvidsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ditch cleaning; forest clear-cut; water quality; water chemistry;

    Abstract : Ditch cleaning (DC) is recommended by authorities to Swedish landowners to maintain forest productivity after forest harvest by lowering groundwater tables of catchment soils. Knowledge regarding the impact of this practice on surface water quality is limited, and results from previous research vary. READ MORE

  3. 17. Geological characterization of rock samples by LIBS and ME-XRT analytical techniques

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geovetenskap och miljöteknik

    Author : Nsioh Elvis Nkioh; [2022]
    Keywords : geological characterization; analytical techniques; LIBS; ME-XRT; SEM; element maps; SEM-EDS; secondary electrons; rock samples; automated ore microscopy; SEM-Zeiss Merlin; element weight percentages; element oxide percentages; scanning techniques; analytical methods; laser induced breakdown spectrometry; multi energy x-ray transmission; scanning electron microscope; carbon coating; mineralogical classification; element composition; rock chemistry; rock chemical composition;

    Abstract : One of the major challenges in earth sciences and mineral exploration has been to determine with high accuracy and at a fast rate the elemental composition as well as the general chemistry of a rock sample. Many analytical techniques e.g. READ MORE

  4. 18. Nanoscale characterisation of model Ni-Mo catalyst active phases

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Jonas Elmroth Nordlander; [2022]
    Keywords : Ni-Mo catalysts; Hydrodeoxygenation; TEM; PXRD; Materials chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : An important stepping stone in transitioning from a fossil-fuel based transportation system is the production of bio-fuels such as bio-oils. For bio-oils to be commercially viable, catalytic upgrading via hydrodeoxygenation is required, typically using Ni-Mo oxide or sulfide catalysts. READ MORE

  5. 19. Exploring Regioselective 5N-acylation of Neuraminic acid

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simon Hans Lilje; [2022]
    Keywords : acylation; amide; antibacterial drugs; regioselective deprotection; sialic acid; organic chemistry; Chemistry;

    Abstract : In this project, a regioselective method to deprotect and acylate the amide on C5 of sialic acid is explored. Sialic acid is one of the most complex monosaccharides and is an important ligand in many higher organisms in intercellular cell communication. The most prominent example is related to the immune system. READ MORE

  6. 20. Phase and Interface Design in Potential Earth-Abundant Multi-Component Photocatalysts

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : David Llorens Rauret; [2022]
    Keywords : Facet control; in-situ TEM; nanoparticle heterostructures; phase transformation; transition metal phosphides; inorganic nanomaterials; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Transition metal phosphides are low-cost, earth-abundant semiconductors with promising properties for photocatalysis, including water-splitting. When combined with other semiconductors or noble metals in nanoparticles, their photocatalytic performance can be drastically enhanced. READ MORE
