   Sammanfattning : Great investments are planned in the north of Sweden the coming years, not the least in the county of Norrbotten where the projects collectively are referred to as the green transition due to the focus on fossil-free techniques. But to be able to secure a sustainable energy supply and reach the goal set by the member states of the European Union of a carbon dioxide neutral union in 2050 the production of alternative energy sources needs to intensify.

3. 7. Risk Factors of Food Loss and Waste, and Life Cycle Assessment of waste management strategies in the Brazilian Leafy Vegetable Supply Chain

   Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

   Författare :Nathalie Garavito; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Behavioural causes; carbon footprint; causal mapping; mitigation strategies; prevention; root-cause analysis; take-back agreements;

   Sammanfattning : Food loss and waste (FLW) occurring early in the food supply chain (FSC) leads to increased resource wastage, including land, water, fertilisers, pesticides, fuel, packaging, energy, and labour. Targeting FLW prevention benefits various aspects such as food security, productivity, economic growth, climate change mitigation, resource conservation, and food waste management. LÄS MER

4. 8. 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

5. 9. Exploring Coordination Mechanisms and Product Characteristics for Food Waste Reduction Principles: A Case Study in Physical Distribution

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk logistik

   Författare :Zacharias Samuelsson; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Food Waste; Food Waste Mitigation; Food Supply Chain; Food Retailing; Food Waste Mitigation in Distribution; Technology and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : Title: Exploring Coordination Mechanisms and Product Characteristics for Food Waste Reduction Principles: A Case Study in Physical Distribution Author: Zacharias Samuelsson Thesis supervisor: Eva Berg, Faculty of Engineering at Lund University Thesis Purpose: Identify food waste causes in a global distribution network and develop an improvement proposal for minimizing food waste. Method: This study develops a food waste mitigation framework based on a literature review and assess it through a case at a company. LÄS MER

7. 10. Deep neural networks for food waste analysis and classification : Subtraction-based methods for the case of data scarcity

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Signaler och system

   Författare :David Brunell; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Siamese network; convolutional neural network;

   Sammanfattning : Machine learning generally requires large amounts of data, however data is often limited. On the whole the amount of data needed grows with the complexity of the problem to be solved. Utilising transfer learning, data augmentation and problem reduction, acceptable performance can be achieved with limited data for a multitude of tasks. LÄS MER
