  1. 21. Growing on the roof : But in what? Examing substrates/growing media for rooftop farming

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Författare :Mikael Brocki; [2023]
    Nyckelord :urban rooftop agriculture; URTA; green roof; substrate; growing medium; organic matter; compost; vegetable; crop; yield; lettuce; tomato; pore; pore-size distribution;

    Sammanfattning : Urban Rooftop Agriculture (URTA) is a novel field within urban vegetable production, which can help create access to local food in a rapidly urbanizing world. For these systems to succeed, it is vital to implement a proper choice of substrate/growing medium (SGM). LÄS MER

  3. 22. The use of hyperspectral sensors for quality assessment : A quantitative study of moisture content in indoor vertical farming

    Master-uppsats, Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Författare :Arezo Ahaddi; Zeineb Al-Husseini; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Hyperspectral Imaging; lettuce; moisture content; NIR; near-infrared spectroscopy; shelf life; quality assessment; vertical farming; MicroNIR;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: This research will study how hyperspectral sensoring can assess the moisture content of lettuce by monitoring its growth in indoor vertical farming. Research questions: “What accuracy can be achieved when using hyperspectral sensoring for assessing the moisture content of lettuce leaves grown in vertical farming?” “How can vertical farming contribute to sustainability in conjunction with integration of NIR spectroscopy?” Methodology: This study is an experimental study with a deductive approach in which experiments have been performed using the hyperspectral technologies singlespot sensor and the hyperspectral camera Specim FX17 to collect spectral data.

  4. 23. Vattenbruket

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Författare :Lukas Bergengren Hammarskiöld; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Arkitektur; Tång; Produktion; Arts and Architecture;

    Sammanfattning : Avståndet mellan produktion och konsumtion av livsmedel är långt. Dagens komplexa matsystem har försvagat vår relation till råvarors ursprung och dess värde. Industrier hamnar allt längre bort i periferin och blir otillgängliga för stadens invånare. LÄS MER

  5. 24. What is the greenest way to eat your greens?

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Författare :Emy Vijverberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :sustainability; triple bottom line model; local production and consumption; comparative analysis; multi-criteria analysis; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The global food industry is the second main contributor to climate change whilst climate change also poses threats to future food security (Ritchie & Roser, 2020). One of the suggestions to decrease the environmental footprint of consumption and increase the resilience of food systems, is the shift to local production and consumption (Stein & Santini, 2021; Van Gameren et al.

  7. 25. Towards Sustainable Coffee Packaging: A Comparative Study of Current and Future Materials for Zoégas Coffee

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

    Författare :Alexandra Karlsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Food packaging; coffee; permeability; recyclability; shelf life.; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : An important factor in preventing food waste is the ability to provide a product with a package according to its needs. The packaging material, in turn, needs to be recyclable in order to contribute to a circular use of materials rather than becoming waste. LÄS MER
