3. Biocatalysis in Pickering emulsions
University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)Abstract : Employing enzymes as catalysts in the production of chiral amines that are both used as building blocks and active pharmaceutical ingredients might be promising due to milder reaction conditions compared to non-biological catalysts, exclusion of heavy metals, high selectivity towards substrates and precision in chirality of the products. Transaminases are attractive for the use in this process. READ MORE

4. Heat recovery from low emission steel production through electrolysis and hydrogen reduction
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaperAbstract : The steel industry is a large emitter of carbon dioxide and uses a lot of energy. Because of an increased awareness of the detrimental effects of climate change, research in alternative ways to operate steel plants have been made. It is now possible to build plants with far less emissions by using electrolysis and hydrogen reduction. READ MORE
