  1. 26. Production of polymers from a papermills wastewater using HTC substrate. : Investigating the viability of using wastewater sludge from Skoghalls’ papermill in combination with filtrate from HTC of sewage sludge to produce biological plastic producing polymers.

    Kandidat-uppsats, Karlstads universitet/Avdelningen för energi-, miljö- och byggteknik

    Författare :Regan George; [2023]
    Nyckelord :PHA; HTC-substrate; Polymer;

    Sammanfattning : Since their conception, plastics have been a dominant product due to the versatility of use, and readily available raw materials. However, the production and consumption of synthetic plastics have continued to increase over the years, leading to a significant rise in plastic waste and its associated environmental impacts, such as the detrimental effects plastic waste has on ecosystems, including the presence of toxic microplastics and risks to marine life, are becoming the focus of criticism.

  3. 27. Biocatalysis in Pickering emulsions

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Författare :Christine Vera Isabel Schmidt; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Enzymes; Pickering emulsion; Amine Transaminases; Green Chemistry; Stereoselectivity; Biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Employing enzymes as catalysts in the production of chiral amines that are both used as building blocks and active pharmaceutical ingredients might be promising due to milder reaction conditions compared to non-biological catalysts, exclusion of heavy metals, high selectivity towards substrates and precision in chirality of the products. Transaminases are attractive for the use in this process. LÄS MER

  4. 28. Using biological conversion to increase the value of short-chain fatty acids by mixed cultures

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

    Författare :Elisabeth Beach; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Ethanol; Mixed culture; Volatile fatty acids; Anaerobic digestion;

    Sammanfattning : The development of anaerobic digestion processes has gained recognition for its potential for producing volatile fatty acids alongside bio-alcohols. In addition, the fermentation process and the products produced from biological fermentation have the possibility to overcome the abundance of organic waste in our society, which is potentially immensely rich in untapped valuable potential products.

  5. 29. Etablering av rötningsanläggning för biogasproduktion i gårdsskala : En teknoekonomisk analys utifrån platsspecifika förutsättningar

    Master-uppsats, Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Författare :Adrian Nilsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Förnyelsebar energi är en nyckelfaktor för en hållbar utveckling. Biogas möjliggör för verksamheter med organiska restflöden att etablera egen energiproduktion av förnyelsebara energi. Problemet med etablering av mindre rötningsanläggningar är begränsad biogasproduktion till höga investeringskostnader. LÄS MER

  7. 30. Isolation of an ammonia-tolerant syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium originating from a thermophilic biogas digester

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Malin Tiefensee; [2023]
    Nyckelord :thermophilic; ammonia-tolerant; syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium;

    Sammanfattning : Syntrophic relationships between fatty acid degrading bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens are important for a well-functioning anaerobic degradation process during biogas production from organic waste material. This is particularly important in biogas processes fed protein-rich material as their degradation gives rise to high levels of ammonia, which inhibits many microorganisms. LÄS MER
