  1. 11. Anaerobic degradation of volatile fatty acids in continuous biogas reactors at very short hydraulic retention times.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Anna Lea Auguste Weimer; [2019]
    Keywords : Anaerobic digestion; hydraulic retention time; organic loading rate; biogas; applied microbiology; teknisk mikrobiologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : There is an increasing demand for safe, affordable and above allsustainable energy, due to the exhaustion of fossil fuels and increasing greenhousegas emissions. In this context, anaerobic digestion is of growing interest, as it enablesthe production of the versatile renewable energy source biogas from various types oforganic wastes. READ MORE

  3. 12. The Impact of Elevator Usage and Zoning on High-Rise Building Evacuation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Miqdad Kilpady; [2019]
    Keywords : Elevator; waiting time; elevator zoning; total evacuation time; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : For decades, the use of elevators has been prohibited during emergencies but with the ever-increasing heights of the buildings, safe and timely vertical evacuation by the conventional means of stairs seems more and more of a challenge. With the recent push for a better understanding of the pros and cons of use of elevators for evacuation by various concerned parties, it is imperative that there is a better understanding of the performance, advantages and risks involved with this evacuation strategy.

  4. 13. Potentialities of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Hydraulic Modelling : Drone remote sensing through photogrammetry for 1D flow numerical modelling

    University essay from KTH/Byggvetenskap

    Author : Andrea Reali; [2018]
    Keywords : UAV; remote sensing; structure from motion; photogrammetry; 1D steady flow hydraulic numerical modelling; hydraulic modelling;

    Abstract : In civil and environmental engineering numerous are the applications that require prior collection of data on the ground. When it comes to hydraulic modelling, valuable topographic and morphology features of the region are one of the most useful of them, yet often unavailable, expensive or difficult to obtain.

  5. 14. Numerical Simulation of Saltwater Intrusion Caused by Land-Use Change and Groundwater Pumping in a Salinity-Affected Coastal Aquifer, Japan

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : Keisuke Konishi; [2017]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Lowering of groundwater level may cause saltwater intrusion in coastal aquifers. Since decrease in groundwater recharge rate and overpumping lower groundwater level, recharge rate and pumping rate are main factors of saltwater intrusion In the study area, the land-use has been changing since a university campus was newly constructed.
