  1. 16. Blue biotechnology : its role in the future of food

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Andrea Lundh; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Aquaculture; blue biotechnology; aquatic resources; SDG; sustainable development goals; blue growth; zero hunger; food security; agenda 2030;

    Sammanfattning : To provide healthy food and livelihoods to a growing population on Earth, while environmental issues becoming more adverse, as well as climate change becoming more critical, is one of today’s greatest challenges. By 2015 the United Nations come up with 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) to tackle global challenges as poverty, global hunger, climate resilience, population growth control, achieving food security, and promotion of sustainable agriculture.

  3. 17. Sensitivity analysis of pluvial flood modelling tools for dense urban areas : A case study in Lundby-Lindholmen, Gothenburg

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Författare :Johanna Eriksson; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Flood Modelling; MIKE FLOOD; Sensitivity Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : As a result of the global climate change, extreme precipitation is occurring more frequently which increases the risk of flooding, especially in urban areas. Urbanisation is widely discussed regarding urban flooding where an increase of impervious surfaces limits the infiltration and increases the surface runoff. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Feasibility Study for Production of Biogas from Wastewater and Sewage Sludge : Development of a Sustainability Assessment Framework and its Application

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Energiteknik

    Författare :Akash Som Gupta; [2020]
    Nyckelord :resource recovery; wastewater treatment; biogas; anaerobic digestion; energy recovery; sustainability assessment; SDG;

    Sammanfattning : Clean water and renewable energy are essential requirements to build resilience towards the adverse effects of climate change and global warming. Advanced wastewater treatment options may provide a unique opportunity to recover various useful resources such as energy (biogas), fertilizers, minerals, and metals embedded in the wastewater stream.

  5. 19. Decreasing organic nitrogen concentrations in European water bodies - links to organic carbon trends and land cover

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Alexis Cazorla; [2020]
    Nyckelord :geography; GIS; physical geography; organic nitrogen; organic carbon; land cover; eutrophication; Europe; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : European rivers experience increasing concentrations of total organic carbon (TOC) from terrestrial sources due to factors involving changes in land use, climate and soil acidity. However, low interest is given to the evolution of total organic nitrogen (TON) concentrations in surface waters, the links with TOC concentrations and the influence of the surrounding land cover on nutrient inputs.

  7. 20. Enabling Circular Economy in Local Solid Waste Management - The Case of Muang Kalasin Municipality, Thailand

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Pornpimon Somneuk; [2020]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The volume and complexity of solid waste have increased locally and globally. Waste pollution has environmental, social, and economic impacts on every country, such as mistreatment of waste caused air quality and water contamination, plastic particles from human activities are carried out to the seas and harm marine creatures, people can face health problems from polluted air and water as well as plastic-contaminated seafood.
