  1. 21. Removal of Micropollutants from Wastewater in Aerobic Granular Sludge and Activated Sludge Systems

    Författare :Cecilia Burzio; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wastewater; Pharmaceuticals; Aerobic Granular Sludge; Microbial Community; Organic Micropollutants; Biofilm; Transformation; Sorption;

    Sammanfattning : The presence of organic substances in the aquatic environment, such as pharmaceutically active compounds, antibiotics, and personal care products, has become a worldwide issue of increasing environmental concern. As they are present at nano- to microgram per liter concentrations, they are defined as organic micropollutants (OMPs). LÄS MER

  3. 22. Reactors and biosensors for improved microbial degradation of acetonitrile

    Författare :Kristina Håkansson; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; denitrification; nitrification; on-line analysis and control; Clark electrode; biosensor; biofilm process; acetonitrile; microbial degradation;

    Sammanfattning : Biodegradation is becoming an attractive mode of operation for eliminating toxic chemicals released from industrial processes or already present in the environment. One needs, however, not only to identify organisms capable of degrading such chemicals, but also to address the issue of whether these chemicals, after being degraded, will be toxic to the degrading organisms if present in high concentrations.

  4. 23. Experimental studies of ice particle formation with tropospheric relevance

    Författare :Erik Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heterogeneous nucleation; water; freezing; cloud droplets; levitation; electrodynamic balance; light scattering; oxalic acid; kaolinite; dinitrogen pentoxide;

    Sammanfattning : In their fourth assessment report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change points out the influence of particles suspended in air, known as an aerosol, as the main uncertainty in the understanding of the climate system. Aerosols affect climate in a number of ways. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Technology and properties of InP-based photonic crystal structures and devices

    Författare :Naeem Shahid; Srinivasan Anand; Rob W. vad der Heijden; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Integrated optics materials; Photonic crystals; Planar waveguides; Dispersion; Band-gap; Mode-gap; mini-stopband; InP; Nanostructure fabrication; dry etching; mass transport; material reflow; reliability; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Photonic crystals (PhCs) are periodic dielectric structures that exhibit a photonic band gap; a range of wavelengths for which light propagation is forbidden. 2D PhCs exhibit most of the properties as their three dimension counterparts with a compatibility with standard semiconductor processing techniques such as epitaxial growth, electron beam lithography, Plasma deposition/etching and electromechanical lapping/polishing.

  7. 25. 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
