  1. 1. Evaluating the transport and composition of gully pot sediments : Under changing anthropogenic activities and rainfall regimes

    Författare :Haoyu Wei; Lian Lundy; Maria Viklander; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering; Centre - Centre for Stormwater Management DRIZZLE ; Centrumbildning - Centrum för dagvattenhantering DRIZZLE ;

    Sammanfattning : Gully pots are a fundamental runoff quality and quantity control measure installed in urban catchments around the world. However, their ubiquitous use in urban catchments also incurs a substantial resource demand in terms of routine maintenance if their continuous performance is to be assured. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Navigating Troubled Waters : An analysis of how urban water regimes in the global South reproduce inequality

    Författare :Maryam Nastar; LUCSUS; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Water Access; Inequality; Transition Framework; Urban Water Regimes; World City; Contentious Politics; Hyderabad; India; Johannesburg; South Africa;

    Sammanfattning : This research is an attempt to conceptualize the underlying forces behind persistent and ubiquitous problems of inequality in access to water in cities of the global south. Inequality in water access is hypothesized to result from urban water regimes that tend to prioritize the right to water access or to provide preferential terms of access for some groups in society, while marginalizing others.

  3. 3. Impacts on sewer performance due to changes to inputs in domestic wastewater

    Författare :Jonathan Mattsson; David Butler; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The impacts of changes in domestic wastewater inputs on sewer performance have been debated since the dawn of the great sewer construction movement in the 1850s. Nowadays, typical household wastewater that enters sewers can generally be divided into streams from the WC, shower and/or bathtub, kitchen sink, washing machine and dishwasher. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Understanding the Roles of Stakeholders in the Water and Sanitation Sector- Implementation and Operation of Water Supply and Sanitation Systems in the Kanata metropolitan region, Bolivia

    Författare :Ida Helgegren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Community management; SDG 6; Transition; Wastewater; Urban areas; Adoption; Universal access; Service providers; Socio-technical regimes; Households;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to understand how distinct population segments access safe water and sanitation services, including the role of CBOs and individual households. A qualitative case study approach of the water and sanitation sector of the Kanata metropolitan region, Bolivia was selected. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Black Death - Blue Skies - White Clouds : Water Vapour Uptake of Particles Produced from Traffic Exhaust and their Effect on Climate

    Författare :Cerina Wittbom; MERGE: ModElling the Regional and Global Earth system; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CCN ACTIVATION; Soot; water vapour; climate; SOA; Traffic emission; Fysicumarkivet A:2017:Wittbom;

    Sammanfattning : Aerosol particles are everywhere in the air around us, regardless of whether you are in a busy city or in the serene Arctic. Airborne particles can be produced naturally or anthropogenically, and their properties changes during the time they spend in the atmosphere. LÄS MER
