    Sammanfattning : Plastkonsumtionen har ökat markant över tid och har utvecklats till ett viktigt material i dagens samhälle, men med utmaningen att råvaran främst kommer från fossila källor. Användningen av plast är i linje med den linjära ekonomin och den så kallade slit-och-släng-kulturen, vilket bidrar till felaktig hantering av plastavfall och en ineffektiv användning av resurser.

  5. 4. Modelling the chemical recycling of plastic waste via pyrolysis and analysing integration with existing refinery infrastructure

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Författare :Simon Dahl; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Pyrolysis; Recycling; Integration; Modelling; Simulation; Techno-economic; Plastic; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Current plastic management is unsustainable as large amounts of plastic end up landfilled or in the ocean, necessitating an expansion of waste management infrastructure. Pyrolysis is a viable chemical recycling option, and in this report a pyrolysis model is constructed in Aspen Plus. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Formulation and characterisation of novel edible-packaging for fruits and vegetables

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Författare :Lola Sutton; Katerina Papa; [2023]
    Nyckelord :algae; edible packaging; carrageenan; cucumber; REL; oxidative stress; antioxidants; food engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : This master's thesis investigated the potential of algae raw materials, specifically k-carrageenan and to a lesser extent alginate, as film-forming ingredients for the development of a novel edible packaging solutions. The project involved the testing and characterisation of several active ingredients of algal and plant origins both as extracts and as ingredients in films. LÄS MER
