  1. 1. Sustainable food packaging based on polyhydroxyalkanoate

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

    Författare :Safana Al-Ashor; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Biopolymers; Sustainable food packaging; Circular economy; Biobased and biodegradable materials; Food packaging; Processing technologies; Food quality; Shelf-life;

    Sammanfattning : The Norwegian Food Research Institute (Nofima) and the University of Borås worked together to develop this project. The commonly used packaging materials pose a serious threat to the environment, as they are produced from nonrenewable crude oil and cannot decompose naturally. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Environmental tool evaluation and databased benchmarking of sustainable packaging materials for Micvac technology

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Förpackningslogistik

    Författare :Uvejs Preza; [2023]
    Nyckelord :sustainable packaging; ready meals; in-pack microwave pasteurization; evaluation tool; environmental impact; material investigation; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years, microwave applications in the food products have attracted increasing attention by the food packaging industry and the consumers due to their convenience, low energy and water usage and short processing time giving them a sustainable advantage over competing technologies. In-pack pasteurization represents one of the fastest developing technologies in preparing and delivering safe and high quality ready-to-eat meals. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Formulation and characterisation of novel edible-packaging for fruits and vegetables

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Författare :Lola Sutton; Katerina Papa; [2023]
    Nyckelord :algae; edible packaging; carrageenan; cucumber; REL; oxidative stress; antioxidants; food engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : This master's thesis investigated the potential of algae raw materials, specifically k-carrageenan and to a lesser extent alginate, as film-forming ingredients for the development of a novel edible packaging solutions. The project involved the testing and characterisation of several active ingredients of algal and plant origins both as extracts and as ingredients in films. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Quality Assurance of Recycled HDPE in the Plastic Packaging Industry

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Författare :Tora Abrahamsson; Juliana Kalling; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Thermoforming; Plastics; Recycling; Packaging Industry; HDPE; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The recycling of plastic has the potential to support circular material use, thus decreasing the need for virgin plastics. However, there is an existing issue with assuring quality of recycled plastic materials, causing finished products to perform with poorer properties and unexpected deviations. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Micromechanical Characterization of Thin Paper Materials

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Lunds Tekniska Högskola

    Författare :Linus Bengtsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Micromechanical characterization; SEM; In situ tensile testing; Paper deformation; Fiber orientation; Paper mechanics; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Hur ser framtidens hållbara förpackning ut och vad är den tillverkad av? För att besvara denna fråga blir mikromekanisk karakterisering av material en viktig parameter att utforska och förstå. I synnerhet är mikromekaniken hos tunna pappersmaterial intressant då materialet har användningspotential i flera förpackningsapplikationer. LÄS MER
