1. Shifting focus from yields to food supply : an evaluation of the ‘number of people fed per hectare’ indicator at farm and national level
Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular SciencesSammanfattning : The challenge of feeding a growing global population while reducing the pressure on climate and ecosystems has gained much attention in research over the last decades. A crucial yet often overlooked aspect in research addressing this complex challenge is the efficiency of food production in meeting nutritional needs within the constraints of global cropland resources.

2. The active phase of Pt(110) during catalytic CO oxidation
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenSammanfattning : CO oxidation is an important topic in heterogeneous catalysis, due to its role in industrial processes such as pollution reduction in the auto industry, and ethanol or other fuel production. In the automotive catalytic converters CO oxidation reduces the poisonous CO to CO2 by reacting with O2. LÄS MER
3. The Impact of Policy on the Production of Liquid Biofuels
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionenSammanfattning : In the following thesis, the development of the biofuels sector in the United States will be analysed using environmental economics. Around year 2005, there was a significant increase in the production of liquid biofuels. Hence, the thesis aims to explore the reasons behind the increase. LÄS MER
4. Analys av platinaytor och platinatennytor under katalytisk etanoloxidation med röntgenfotoelektronspectroskopi
Magister-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap och tillämpad matematik (MTM)Sammanfattning : Fuel cells are more efficient and cleaner than combustion engines. Ethanol as a fuel has a high energy density and is safer and easier to handle than hydrogen which is normally used in fuel cells. If efficient fuel cells on alcohol were available, they could be used for engines and power sources for electronics. LÄS MER
5. Biogas Potential in the North of Sweden : Inventory and Techno-Economic Assessment of Substrates for an Increased Biogas Production in Norrbotten
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)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.
