  1. 1. Production of natural pigments from A. platensis grown on wastewater from local treatment facility.

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Författare :Hana Faulds; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Cyanobacteria; pigments; microalgae; wastewater treatment; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Although microalgae have been considered for the biological treatment of wastewater since the 1950’s, their potential to efficiently remove pollutants from various streams remains largely untapped and is yet to be utilized at large scale. The production of algal biomass and extraction of high-value compounds has, however, become increasingly popular with large scale farms and biorefineries around the world producing many promising alternatives to petroleum-based products and processes.

  4. 3. 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)

    Författare :Alma Fahlén Hammar; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Biogas; anaerobic digestion; AD; Norrland; bioenergy; fossil-free; chemical engineering; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    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.

  5. 4. What is the greenest way to eat your greens?

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Författare :Emy Vijverberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :sustainability; triple bottom line model; local production and consumption; comparative analysis; multi-criteria analysis; Agriculture and Food Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The global food industry is the second main contributor to climate change whilst climate change also poses threats to future food security (Ritchie & Roser, 2020). One of the suggestions to decrease the environmental footprint of consumption and increase the resilience of food systems, is the shift to local production and consumption (Stein & Santini, 2021; Van Gameren et al.
