3. Modelling the chemical recycling of plastic waste via pyrolysis and analysing integration with existing refinery infrastructure
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)Sammanfattning : Current plastic management is unsustainable as large amounts of plastic end up landfilled or in the ocean, necessitating an expansion of waste management infrastructure. Pyrolysis is a viable chemical recycling option, and in this report a pyrolysis model is constructed in Aspen Plus. LÄS MER
4. Varnishing of Fiber-based Closures
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/FörpackningslogistikSammanfattning : This research aims to investigate water-based varnishes and technologies to coat fiber-based closures to attain water barrier properties. To ensure recyclability the repulpability of coated and uncoated lids is tested. The research approach is exploratory. LÄS MER
5. Microplastics in Scanian wetlands : Sege river & Kävlinge river
Kandidat-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för Urbana Studier (US)Sammanfattning : It is estimated that 75 million tons of plastics waste is currently in the ocean and expects to increase in line with plastic consumption. Plastic items in natural or aquatic environments are fragmented into smaller pieces called microplastics. Microplastics can enter rivers and lakes through sewage water to end up in wetlands where they sediment. LÄS MER
