    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Författare :Marco Tasca; [2023]
    Nyckelord :food waste; behaviour; behavioural economics; theory of planned behaviour; Uppsala; consumers;

    Sammanfattning : Around one-third of the total food provided for human consumption goes to waste every year. Previous literature shows that throughout the entire production-consumption chain, the final household stage generates the largest proportion of food waste compared to all the other stages. LÄS MER

  4. 18. How is triple bottom line thinking included in small-firm decision making? – A study of potato farmers in Östergötland, Sweden : hur påverkas potatisproduktionen av kvalitetskrav?

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Författare :Madeleine Gillheimer; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Food waste; production losses; primary production; triple bottom line; decision theory; garbage can model;

    Sammanfattning : Earlier research has shown a lack of studies on waste in agriculture production. Therefore, there is a need for improved screening for the cause of wastage in primary production. In addition, more research is required on how quality requirements and norms affect wastage and how waste can be prevented. LÄS MER

  5. 19. 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

  7. 20. Utilization of Biomethane in Decarbonising India´s Energy Mix

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Energiteknik

    Författare :Niraj Ravindra Kunkulol; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Anaerobic digestion; biogas; biomethane; membrane filtration; pressure swing adsorption; Anaerob rötning; biogas; biometan; membranfiltrering; trycksvängadsorption;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the potential of biomethane production in India, the impact of its integration into the energy mix, and the corresponding Greenhouse Gases (GHG) emission and potential reduction. India, with its huge population and being an agriculturally rich country, produces gigantic amounts of biodegradable waste from various sources such as Municipal Solid Waste (MSW),agricultural waste, animal husbandry, sugar industry, etc. LÄS MER
