  1. 16. Synthesis and characterization of lactic acid-based elastomers

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Afsaneh Makhdoumi; [2023]
    Keywords : Lactic acid; Elastomer; Bio-based elastomer; Renewable resource;

    Abstract : Synthesized polymer from bio-based and renewable resources reported as an attractive substitution for fossil-fuel based polymers. Therefore, this work has focused on using sustainable material for production of elastomers to reduce the environmental impact of fossil-based elastomers and overcome the shortage of non-renewable fuels.

  2. 17. Production of textile fibres from filamentous fungi grown on apple pomace : invertase pre-treatment

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Sofia Berg; [2023]
    Keywords : apple pomace; invertase; fibres; filamentous fungi; dry gel spinning;

    Abstract : In this work Rhizopus Delemar was grown on an apple pomace medium, a waste product from the juice industry. The apple pomace was pre-treated with the enzyme invertase to hydrolyse the sucrose available in the waste to glucose and fructose, which are digestible by the fungus. READ MORE

  3. 18. Reduction of Explosion Effects by Use of a Sandwich Wall

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Annie Bohman; [2023]
    Keywords : Explosion Blast load Sandwich wall Energy absorption; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : It was recently decided that a new hospital is to be built in Växjö. It is important that hospitals can be utilised no matter the circumstances, even in situations of threat. New reports have been published concerning how hospitals are to be designed. In this, it is mentioned that explosions are a threat that should be considered. READ MORE

  4. 19. Quality Assurance of Recycled HDPE in the Plastic Packaging Industry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Juliana Kalling; Tora Abrahamsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Thermoforming; Plastics; Recycling; Packaging Industry; HDPE; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The recycling of plastic has the potential to support circular material use, thus decreasing the need for virgin plastics. However, there is an existing issue with assuring quality of recycled plastic materials, causing finished products to perform with poorer properties and unexpected deviations. READ MORE

  5. 20. Study on Decolorization of Reactive-dyed Cotton through Fenton-oxidation as a Pre-treatment for Textile Recycling

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Elise Meurs; [2023]
    Keywords : Fenton-oxidation; advanced oxidation processes; decolorization; textile recycling; cotton; reactive dye;

    Abstract : In this master thesis, the feasibility of Fenton-oxidation for the decolorization of reactive dyed cotton is investigated as a potentially environmental-friendly preparatory treatment for mechanical/chemical recycling. Raw, knitted cotton is dyed with a black and a blue dye, whereafter preliminary tests are performed to investigate the influence of increasing Fenton- solution concentrations and different iron-sources on the efficiency of the discoloration, without carrying out complete optimization of the process-parameters.
