1. 1. Thermal degradation of PFAS in solid matter

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Kemi

   Författare :Tuqa Al-Badri; [2024]
   Nyckelord :PFAS; PFOS; PFOA; thermal degradation; sewage sludge; PFAS; PFOS; PFOA; termisk nedbrytning; avloppsslam;

   Sammanfattning : Per- och Polyfluorerade alkylsubstanser (PFAS) är syntetiskt framställda organiska föreningar som har använts i stor utsträckning i konsument- och industriprodukter. PFAS-substanser besitter attraktiva egenskaper såsom resistans mot väta, fett, fläckar och är dessutom värmetåliga. LÄS MER

3. 2. Temporary Halting of Wind Turbine Rotors toMitigate Effects on Birds

   Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

   Författare :Ola Hedberg; [2024]
   Nyckelord :Bird; mitigation; effect; wind farm; turbine; wind power; halting; collision; risk; birds; power; generation;

   Sammanfattning : This study assesses the viability of temporarily halting wind turbine operations as amitigation measure to protect bird populations during migration periods. Conducted in thenorthern Baltic, it examines the migration patterns, timings, and altitudes of various birdspecies, aiming to identify the most critical times for implementing turbine stoppages.

4. 3. Behaviours of older adults in urban outdoor environments during warm days

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Författare :Sandra Lujic; [2023-08-18]
   Nyckelord :Older adults; urban outdoor environments; behaviour; preferences; thermal comfort;

   Sammanfattning : As a result of climate change, heat waves are expected to increase in frequency, duration, and severity, which is particularly threatening to the urban population. Vulnerable groups, including the older population, are more likely to be affected by adverse health effects due to heat exposure. LÄS MER

5. 4. Trees as heat stress mitigators. The frequency of heat and cold stress in a redevelopment area in Borås, Sweden

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Författare :Simon Wiklund Wagersten; [2023-06-22]
   Nyckelord :Cold stress; heat stress; SOLWEIG; thermal comfort; TreePlanter;

   Sammanfattning : As future climate is predicted to generate higher temperatures as well as more frequent extreme weather scenarios, it is essential to plan to mitigate the effects of climate change. In an attempt to mitigate one effect of climate change, this master’s thesis examines both the heat and cold stress at the area Pulsen in Borås Stad, both as the conditions are today, and after the implementation of a new detail plan.

7. 5. Effects of Energy Performance Improving Measures on a 1990's Brick House in Southern Czech Republic : Computer Simulations using IDA-ICE

   Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

   Författare :Vaclav Panek; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Final energy demand; Primary energy demand; Energy performance; Refurbishment; Single-family house; Space heating;

   Sammanfattning : The residential sector was responsible for 25% of the Final Energy Demand (FED) in the European Union in 2015. Countries in Central and Eastern Europe such as the Czech Republic are particularly concerned with ensuring security of supply at the lowest possible cost in recent years. LÄS MER
