  1. 21. Future trends in urban stormwater quality : effects of changes in climate, catchment characteristics and processes and socio-economic factors

    Författare :Matthias Borris; Lian Lundy; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change and progressing urbanization cause numerous environmental concerns, including the impacts on urban drainage. Such impacts were addressed during the last two decades with focus on hydraulic overloading of drainage systems and the means of overload remediation by stormwater management. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Reducing Stormwater Pollution - Performance of Retention Ponds and Street Sweeping

    Författare :Jonas German; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; urban runoff; street sweeping; removal processes; treatment; removal efficiency; sediment; stormwater; BMP; modelling; pond;

    Sammanfattning : Stormwater, in this study defined as surface runoff in urban areas, is known to transport large quantities of toxic substances to receiving waters. Therefore different practices to treat stormwater have been proposed. In Sweden retention ponds have become a common treatment method during the past decade. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Diffusive Combustion of Ethanol in a Dual-Fuel Direct Injection Compression Ignition Engine

    Författare :Nicola Giramondi; Anders Christiansen Erlandsson; Mihai Mihaescu; Anders Jäger; Jan Erik Eismark; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : The impact of climate change due to global warming necessitates rapid and extensive measures to enhance the sustainability of the energy and transport sectors. In this context, there are large environmental and societal benefits to be gained by replacing diesel with renewable fuels for road freight transport. LÄS MER

  5. 24. The Threat to the Baltic Salmon - a Combination of Persistent Pollutants, Parasite and Oxidative Stress

    Författare :Maria Persson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Salmo salar; Atlantic salmon; polychlorinated biphenyls; Animal ecology; akvatisk ekologi; limnologi; Marinbiologi; limnology; aquatic ecology; marine biology; Hydrobiology; Ekologi; Ecology; lake Vänern; lake Vättern; Baltic Sea; Eubothrium crassum; aryl hydrocarbon receptor; AHR; consumption advice; stable isotopes; astaxanthin; EROD; M74; antioxidants; biomagnification; cestodes; parasites; DDT; Djurekologi; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; PCB;

    Sammanfattning : Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) from the Baltic Sea suffer from a reproduction disease known as the M74-syndrome. Newly hatched fry develop nerve disorders and die between 3-5 days after the first symptoms are seen. This is a maternally transmitted disease that is casued by a thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency.

  7. 25. Towards the Control of Microplastic Pollution in Urban Waters

    Författare :Emma Fältström; Stefan Anderberg; Sara Gustafsson; Hans Bertil Wittgren; Marinette Hagman; Sverker Molander; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Water pollution has long been considered a challenge in urban areas, and new types of pollution are continuously introduced to society. Urban wastewater and stormwater act as transport pathways of pollution from urban areas to receiving waterways. LÄS MER
