  3. 7. The discoloration of polyethylene obtained from chemical separation of laminates: Investigating additives and other potential causes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

    Author : Can Feng; [2021]
    Keywords : Delamination; multilayered packaging; polymer discoloration; plastic film; recycling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : PolyAl, the material composed of laminated polyethylene (PE) films and aluminum (Al) in carton, is a challenge in recycling due to the strong adhesion of the layers and the low value of the end products. In Europe, recent efforts to improve the circularity of carton packages include the chemical separation of PolyAl, in order to obtain higher values of the PE and Al separately. READ MORE

  4. 8. 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

  6. 10. Increased traceability of recycled cardboard and containerboard packaging with the help of blockchain technology

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovationsteknik

    Author : Eric Trulsson; Louise Ragnarsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Blockchain technology; Distributed ledger technology; Sustainability; Supply chain; Recycling; Cardboard and containerboard packaging industry; Technology and Engineering; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : Producers in the cardboard and containerboard packaging industry want to, and are sometimes forced to, increase the amount of recycled fibers in packaging, but there is no way to confirm the actual composition of fibers by examining the material optically or chemically. Blockchain technology is often seen as a promising technology for data storage and it is argued that it can help increase transparency through supply chains. READ MORE
