1. Greenhouse gas emissions from peat soil thawing in spring : a comparison between fertilized and unfertilized soil
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentSammanfattning : Peat soils drained for agriculture and forestry contribute to a significant amount of greenhouse gas emissions. Nitrous oxide is a greenhouse gas with high warming potential and agriculture in general accounts for about 70 % of nitrous oxide emissions. LÄS MER
2. The potential nitrous oxide emissions in a permanent grassland chronosequence
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant PathologySammanfattning : As a part of a larger project (Belowground biodiversity of grasslands – conservation needs and potential to promote sustainable agriculture), this study aims to investigate potential nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and microbial gene abundances needed for the production (nirS and nirK) and reduction (nosZI and nosZII) of nitrous oxide in soil of permanent grasslands of various age. Thegrasslands have at different times been converted to permanent grasslands and are of interest because of the possibility to shed more light about the passage of time’s affects on the soil microbialcommunities and their activity.

3. Utvärdering av driftdata i fullskala för minimering av lustgasutsläpp på Henriksdals Reningsverk
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Lustgas är en växthusgas, ca 300 gånger mer potent än koldioxid och som har potential att bryta ned ozonlagret med sin livslängd på 120 år i atmosfären. Lustgasutsläppen beräknas ha ökat med mellan 20–30% sedan förindustriell tid vilket tros bero på en ökad användning av konstgödsel i jordbrukssektorn men en del av all lustgas som bildas kommer från avloppsreningsverk vilka står för ca 1,6% av lustgasavgången till atmosfären där Henriksdals reningsverk bidrar med lustgasproduktion.

4. Modelling the full-scale N2O emissions from wastewater treatment plants for identifying mitigation strategies
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Sammanfattning : Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, which primarily originate from the biological nitrogen removal process, dominate the release of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). N2O production occurs through dynamic microbial pathways that have a significant impact on the environment compared with other GHG emissions. LÄS MER
5. Some Like It Hot: Pre-heating Prior to Bioreactor Treatment Enhances Nitrogen Removal From Mine Drainage
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapsläraSammanfattning : Ammonium-nitrate based explosives (NH4NO3) used within the operations of Kiruna iron ore mine release nitrate (NO3-) into the environment, potentially having adverse effects on local river-systems. One way of reducing NO3- impacts to the environment is through a woodchip denitrifying bioreactor (DBR). LÄS MER
