6. Comparative analysis of pathogen occurrence in wastewater : management strategies for barrier function and microbial control
Sammanfattning : This project was initiated to fill knowledge gaps on the occurrence of pathogens in different streams of wastewater, e.g. greywater and domestic wastewater. LÄS MER
7. Novel and ancient technologies for heating and cooling buildings
Sammanfattning : The basic issue of this thesis concerns one of the fundamental problems of the future of our society: How to meet the energy requirements for a large and growing world population while preserving our environment? This question is important for the world and the answers are complex and interwoven.Conventional energy sources, fossil and fissile, are polluting in the present and in the future: they erode the environment and their resources are limited.

8. Hazardous substances in wastewater management
Sammanfattning : The extensive use of materials and substances in society causes diffuse source emissions that lead to uncontrolled spreading of hazardous substances, largely channelled via wastewater systems, to the surrounding nature. Complex mixtures of substances appear in wastewater as a result of use, wear, and corrosion of goods (e.g. LÄS MER
9. On-site sanitation systems - An integrated assessment of treatment efficiency and sustainability
Sammanfattning : Small on-site sanitation systems for wastewater collection and treatment are prevalent in suburban and rural areas in many countries. However, these systems often underperform, causing potential impact to the receiving waters and increasing the risks to public health, thus hindering the overall sustainability of the systems.
