  1. 1. Techno-economic and environmental analysis of alternative pathways for urea fertilizer production.

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

    Författare :Wilson Rodriguez; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Urea fertilizer; ammonia; natural gas; biogas; GWP; PE; hydrogen; nitrogen; technologies.;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing global population has placed significant pressure on meeting food demands, leading to the widespread use of fertilizers to enhance crop yields. Urea, being the most used fertilizer globally, has contributed to improved agricultural productivity. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Livscykelanalys av avloppsreningsverk : En jämförande studie mellan MBR och aktivslammetoden

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Ella Heinonen; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Membrane bioreactor; Environmental Impacts; Construction; Sewage treatment; Membranbioreaktor; Aktivt slam; Miljöpåverkan; Vattenrening; Konstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : Avloppsreningsverk är en viktig del av vattnets kretslopp och skyddar mottagande miljö från föroreningar i avloppsvattnet. Det finns olika tekniker att rena avloppsvattnet på och denna studie jämför den potentiella miljöpåverkan från MBR och aktivslammetoden ur ett livscykelperspektiv. LÄS MER

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Coupling of Material Flow Analysis and Life Cycle Assessment to Analyze the Urban Metabolism of a Swedish City

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Maria Lívia Real de Almeida; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Urban Metabolism; Material and Energy Flow Analysis; Life Cycle Assessment; Environmental impact; Sustainable cities;

    Sammanfattning : Cities are responsible for an increasingly large share of environmental impacts linked to their resource consumption and production of waste. Understanding how the flows of materials and energy in urban systems contribute to environmental impacts is fundamental for urban sustainability. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Cradle-to-Gate LCA of Water Treatment Alternatives : A case study performed for Norrvatten’s future waterwork expansion

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Siddharth Selvarajan; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Life cycle assessment; Water purification method; Potable water production; Microbiological barrier; Activated carbon; Sludge separation; Livscykelbedömning; Vattenreningsmetod; Produktion av dricksvatten; Mikrobiologisk barriär; Aktivt kol; Slamavskiljnin;

    Sammanfattning : Norrvatten is a municipal association which owns a water treatment plant capable of supplying good quality drinking water to the consumers in the associated neighbouring municipalities. After preliminary investigations for the future year of 2050, there were estimates which suggest a potential water quality degradation in the lake which supplies the raw water for treatment due to uncertain future climatic conditions and other forms of pollutions from the surrounding.
