  1. 21. Performance monitoring of systems for airpuricationAuthor:Anders

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Anders Gustafson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are often the cause of malodor. The compounds which are the main causes of the odor is hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia(NH3), mercaptans (RSH) and volatile organic compounds (V OC) [1]. The odorous air can be analyzed to determine the concentration of the odorants. READ MORE

  3. 22. Plant-plant communication - possible mechanisms and benefits

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Maria Hedsén; [2019]
    Keywords : plant-plant communication; plant interactions by VOC; plant interactions by sound; photomorphogenesis; thigomorphogenesis; bioacoustics;

    Abstract : Plants interact with their environment in many ways. They can emit and receive volatile organic compounds (VOC) and sound. They can reflect specific wavelengths of light and detect these light signals, reflected by other plants. They can also feel when they are touched and distinguish different types of touch. READ MORE

  4. 23. CFD and Experimental Study of Refuelling and Venting a Fuel System

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Aditya Naronikar; Anton Riström; [2019]
    Keywords : CFD; VOF; multiphase; refuelling; gasoline; ORVR; automotive; volvo;

    Abstract : In 1999, California Air Resources Board (CARB) implemented a regulation that required all gasoline cars sold in California be fitted with an Onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery System (ORVR). The ORVR system is designed to prevent Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from escaping into the atmosphere during refuelling by storing the gas vapours in a carbon canister. READ MORE

  6. 25. Early season BVOC emission for young potted Norway spruce (Picea abies)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Erica Jaakkola; [2019]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; BVOC; Norway spruce; PTR-TOFMS; photosynthesis; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) are emitted naturally from the biosphere to the atmosphere and are a part of the global carbon emissions. BVOCs are contributing to around 5-10% of the total net carbon exchange to the atmosphere. READ MORE
