  1. 1. Aluminum levels in the O-horizon of soils near Sundsvall, Sweden : Are levels of Al elevated due to smelter emission?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Författare :Mattias Sundin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Aluminium; Smelter emissions; O-horizon; Al concentration; Scots’ pine needles;

    Sammanfattning : Aluminum (Al) is a potentially toxic element for humans, animals, and plants. Al emitted from smelter plants is one source of Al that may be responsible for increased exposure to humans and the environment. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Increasing ecosystem services at an industrial area : A study applied to Rönnskärsverken

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

    Författare :Lisa Larsson; Petra Ljunggren; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Green areas; Biodiversity; Environmental regulation; Nature Based Solutions; Stormwater management;

    Sammanfattning : What are ecosystem services, what are the possibilities to use them as a solution to remediate environmental problems, and how can they be increased in an industrial area such as Rönnskärsverken? The aim of this master thesis was to investigate the potential and the incentive for increasing ecosystem services in Rönnskärsverken’s industrial area through green areas and nature based stormwater management solutions on the site.  Ecosystem services is a concept that was put on the political agenda in the UN in 2005 in order to create a common definition and valuation to raise awareness of the values that nature provides to human beings.

  4. 3. Optimal joint operation of wind and hydropower

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för data- och systemvetenskap

    Författare :Evangelos Bikis; [2022]
    Nyckelord :VRES integration; hydropower; wind power; business analytics; optimization; linear programming; clustering;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change drives policymakers to reduce emissions and enhance the integration of variable renewable energy sources (VRES) into the power system. Wind power is considered among the most beneficial VRES as it can generate cost-effectively carbon-free electricity but comes with inherent intermittency. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Diffuse dust at Boliden Bergsöe investigated through X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Författare :Linnea Savér; Marcus Norlin; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Multi-metals monitoring; On-line monitoring; Aerosols; Diffuse dust; Environmental management; Secondary lead smelting; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Boliden Bergsöe operates a secondary lead smelter for recycling of lead-acid batteries, located in the industrial area of Landskrona. Measurements to monitor levels of airborne particles have been conducted in several locations in Landskrona since 1977. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Livscykelanalys av en härvsats

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Miljövetenskap

    Författare :Gustav Brodin; Klara Mia Johanna Johansson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Life cycle assessment; Cradle to gate; Coil; Environmental Impact; GWP; ADP; AP; Livscykelanalys; Vagga till grind; Härvsats; Miljöpåverkan; global uppvärmning; abiotisk resursutarmning; försurning;

    Sammanfattning : Livscykelanalys (LCA) används för att beräkna produktsystemets potentiella miljöpåverkan och identifiera hotspots i livscykeln. Resultatet kan användas för att tilllämpaåtgärder på produktsystemets hotspots för en minskad potentiell miljöpåverkan. LÄS MER
