1. Chlorine Cycling in Terrestrial Environments
Sammanfattning : Chlorinated organic compounds (Clorg) are produced naturally in soil. Formation and degradation of Clorg affect the chlorine (Cl) cycling in terrestrial environments and chlorine can be retained or released from soil. LÄS MER
2. Effects of fertilisation with biogas residues on crop yield, soil microbiology and greenhouse gas emissions : recycling of plant nutrients from bioenergy production
Sammanfattning : The amount of residues generated by biogas production has increased dramatically due to worldwide interest in using renewable energy. Biogas residues (BRs) originate from anaerobic degradation of different types of rural and urban organic wastes and have been proposed as organic fertilisers because of their high content of ammonium and other valuable macro- and micro-nutrients.

3. Recycling plant nutrients from waste and by-products : a life cycle perspective
Sammanfattning : Chemical fertilisers contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, fossil fuel use, use of non-renewable phosphate rock and a flow of reactive nitrogen to the biosphere, exceeding the planetary boundaries. Recycling of plant nutrients from waste and by-products from society would reduce the use of chemical fertilisers. LÄS MER
4. Dormancy in reproductive vegetative buds in creeping perennials dominating the agricultural weed flora in Scandinavia
Sammanfattning : Dormancy, which is the inability to initiate normal growth under otherwise favourable conditions, is an adaptation to escape sprouting prior to seasonal cold temperatures and/or drought in areas where winters are harsh or summers dry. Dormancy in woody perennials of northern temperate areas is, in general, induced by photoperiodic and/or temperature changes, and released after prolonged exposure to chilling. LÄS MER
5. From waste problem to renewable energy resource : exploring horse manure as feedstock for anaerobic digestion
Sammanfattning : A sustainable energy system requires, according to energy policies, reduced emissions of greenhouse gases, increased ratio of renewable sources of energy and more efficient use of energy. Horse manure could be regarded as waste, but also as a resource for renewable energy and plant nutrients. LÄS MER
