  1. 1. Lär vi oss av historien? En kvalitativ studie som undersöker två perspektiv av hållbar utveckling i relation till gruvbrytning i Kiruna

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för globala studier

    Författare :Hanna Thomsen; [2023-10-26]
    Nyckelord :sustainable development; agenda 2030; indigenous; sami; mining; postcolonial theory; justice; global studies; development studies;

    Sammanfattning : To meet the contemporary demands of sustainable development, enterprises aim to undergo a green transition in order to handle the threats of climate change. Through the lens of postcolonial theories questioning the knowledge apprised from western societies, a new light can be shed on alternative approaches to global conventions such as Agenda 2030.

  3. 2. Unveiling Contradictions: The Green Energy Transition and Sámi Indigenous Rights in the Per Geijer Expansion, Kiruna, Sweden

    Magister-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för Urbana Studier (US)

    Författare :Maria Svensson; Maria Schmidt; [2023]
    Nyckelord :green energy transition; Indigenous rights; extractive industries; mining; sustainable development; Sámi; social sustainability;

    Sammanfattning : In recent decades, there has been a growing recognition of Indigenous rights over traditional territories and natural resources, alongside the intensification of extractive activities on Indigenous lands, often in violation of their rights.The paradox is driven by several factors, including escalating global commodity prices, energy security concerns, and the shift towards green energy.

  4. 3. The Promise of a Green Revolution : Conceptions of climate change and sustainability in local movements objecting to mining establishment

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kulturantropologi och etnologi

    Författare :Caroline Reinhammar; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This study explores how vernacular understandings of climate change and sustainability are formed in relation to local disputes concerning mineral exploration. In a search for a solution to climate change, the interest in rare earth elements (REEs), and other metals used in green technology has resulted in granting mining companies processing concessions in Sweden.

  5. 4. Synthesis and Characterization of Multi-component Metal Oxides based on Ru-Co-Mo as Oxygen Evolving Electrocatalysts

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Författare :Jonas Tejbo; [2023]
    Nyckelord :catalyst; metal-oxide; electrolysis;

    Sammanfattning : Finding materials based on non-rare earth metals is vital for the global transition to a more sustainable economy. Discovering useful properties in common metal oxides is a promising avenue for new materials. LÄS MER

  7. 5. A numerical comparison of the thermoacoustics for different equivalence ratios for n-dodecane using LES

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Författare :Björn Jarfors; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Computational Fluid Dynamics; Bluff-body stabilised flames; Large Eddy Simulation; Thermoacoustics; Acoustics; NEUMANN Project; Jet engines; Aero engines; Airplanes; Combustion; Numerics; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Klimatförändringarna påverkar vår värld och det behövs ett mer hållbart samhälle. Flygindustrin är i behov av förändring, men flygmotorer är mycket komplexa och tar tid att utveckla. Termoakustiska instabiliteter har kraften att förstöra en motor, men också att minska miljöpåverkan. LÄS MER
