21. Functionalization of Synthetic Polymers for Membrane Bioreactors
Sammanfattning : Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) show great promise for productivity improvement and energy conservation in conventional bioprocesses for wastewater reclamation. In order to attain high productivity in a bioprocess, it is crucial to retain the microorganisms in the bioreactors by preventing wash out. LÄS MER
22. Cu(I) stabilizing polymers for marine anti-fouling applications
Sammanfattning : The growth of marine organisms on immersed surfaces in seawater is known as biofouling and causes several problems for marine transportation. The need to combat fouling is thus of great importance. Copper has to be used in extreme amounts to act as an efficient biocide. LÄS MER
23. Low biocide emission antifouling based on a novel route of barnacle intoxication
Sammanfattning : Marine biofouling can be defined as the colonization of man-made surfaces in seawater by microscopic and macroscopic organisms. This phenomenon can result in great loss of function and effectiveness both for cruising ships and for static constructions. LÄS MER
24. Multi-Agent Mission Planning and Execution for Small Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
Sammanfattning : Our planet is mostly covered in water, most of it still unexplored.In order to understand our environment better, oceanographers have been mapping and monitoring these waters using ship-mounted sensors and wired vehicles with limited range compared to the vastness of the oceans.

25. Neutron Reflectometry Studies of the Hydrated Structure of Polymer Thin Films
Sammanfattning : Polymer coatings are inexpensive surface modifications providing a wide variety of functions. There is an ever-present motivation to improve the films’ performance and to decrease the cost and the environmental footprint of their production. LÄS MER
