  1. 16. The biodegradable straw - Investigating how enzymes can be used to enhance desired product qualities of drinking devices.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Charlotte Parnefjord Gustafsson; Hanna Liang; [2020]
    Keywords : biodegradable; bioplastics; drinking devices; enzymes; fibre material; PHA; product design; statistical analysis; straws; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The increasing production of single-use plastics negatively affects the climate. The resulting plastic ocean debris has fatal consequences to marine life. As a result, the European Parliament has placed a ban on single-use plastics by 2021, making it essential to study sustainable materials for single-use products such as straws. READ MORE

  3. 18. Demonstrating a phytotechnological design-approach : plant biology in stormwater remediation practice

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Oscar Yachnin; [2019]
    Keywords : phytotechnology; phytoremediation; landscape architecture; stormwater management; contamination; pollution;

    Abstract : In this master’s thesis the field of phytotechnology is investigated. Phytotechnology is a collection of largely unexploited methods and processes that aim to employ the abilities of plants to manage contaminants in our environments. READ MORE

  4. 19. Kinetic Modelling of Fluidised Bed Drying of Enzyme Granules and Effect on Enzyme Stability

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : Edvin Ingmarsson; [2019]
    Keywords : fluidised bed; drying; enzyme; stability; mathematical modelling; biotechnology; bioteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the production of solid enzyme products, the granules are dried in a fluidised bed dryer prior to being coated with a protective salt coating. The coating exhibits a low mass diffusivity, which essentially encapsulates any present moisture inside. During the coating process moisture is inevitably added to the granules. READ MORE

  5. 20. Modelling of a sulfate reducing and metal recovery process, for application within treatment of industrial wastewater

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Author : Kristina Broberg; [2019]
    Keywords : Biotechnology; Wastewater treatment; Process modelling; Bioprocess technology; Sulfate reducing bacteria; Metal sulfides; Simulation; Matlab; SuperPro Designer; Bioteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Denna masteruppsats syftar till utvecklandet av en industriellt, fullskalig modell över en vattenreningsprocess som syftar till simultan sulfatreduktion och tungmetallåtervinning från processvatten vid gruvdrift. Den mängd sulfat som finns tillgänglig i lakvattnet, omvandlas till vätesulfid med hjälp av sulfatreducerande bakterier (SRB). READ MORE
