  1. 1. Production of natural pigments from A. platensis grown on wastewater from local treatment facility.

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

    Author : Hana Faulds; [2023]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; pigments; microalgae; wastewater treatment; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Although microalgae have been considered for the biological treatment of wastewater since the 1950’s, their potential to efficiently remove pollutants from various streams remains largely untapped and is yet to be utilized at large scale. The production of algal biomass and extraction of high-value compounds has, however, become increasingly popular with large scale farms and biorefineries around the world producing many promising alternatives to petroleum-based products and processes.

  2. 2. Waste Analysis on a Production Line - A Case Study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell Produktion

    Author : Sanna Treptow; Déspina Karida; [2023]
    Keywords : Sustainable manufacturing systems; Sustainable production; Lean production; Just in Time Production JiT ; Kanban; Waste; Environmental Value Stream Mapping EVSM ; Production Performance Matrix PPM ; Key Performance Index KPI ; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study aims to assist Swedish company Clemondo AB in reducing waste in production, where the goal is to determine where waste appears as well as make suggestions for potential improvements, which are presented as Key Performance Indices (KPIs) and minimized manufacturing costs. Citation chaining is used to retrieve extant literature, while other productions and process-related information are gathered through observations and discussions. READ MORE

  3. 3. Simulation and optimisation of a manufacturing process : A case study of a high mix and low volume manufacturing process at Atlas Copco

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Industriell teknik

    Author : Axel Lund Borg; [2023]
    Keywords : Bottleneck analysis; simulation; value stream map; production management;

    Abstract : Companies are constantly seeking new ways to increase their efficiency and flexibility to be able to meet the market demand, industry 4.0 has provided companies with new tools that enables them to better track the performance of a process and more easily optimise it. READ MORE

  4. 4. Streamlining processes : The Role of Digitalization in Value Stream Mapping

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för informatik (IK)

    Author : Marcus Johansson; Rhys Sahlin; [2023]
    Keywords : Digitalization; Value Stream Mapping VSM ; Lean principles; Mapping; Large enterprise LE ;

    Abstract : This study investigates the implementation of Lean principles to Value Stream Mapping (VSM). The study also explores the benefits and challenges of applying VSM as a mapping model for preliminary work in the context of digitalization within assembly lines. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modelling Gas Flow Behaviour in Gas Atomizer

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Aravind Senan Vasanthasenan Reji; [2022]
    Keywords : Gas atomization; Nozzle; Velocity; Static pressure; Discrete phase model; Gasatomisering; Munstycke; Hastighet; Statiskt tryck; Diskret fasmodell;

    Abstract : Gas atomization is regarded as a reliable method for creating high-quality metal powders from molten metal. The liquid metal is fed into the chamber as a free-falling stream through a nozzle, where it is impinged by high-velocity gas jets, causing degeneration and production of metal droplets, which solidify to create metal powders.
