1. Accelerator Mass Spectrometry of 36Cl and 129I : Analytical Aspects and Applications
Sammanfattning : Two long-lived halogen radionuclides (36Cl, T1/2 = 301 kyr, and 129I, T1/2 = 15.7 Myr) have been studied by means of Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) at the Uppsala Tandem Laboratory. The 36Cl measurements in natural samples using a medium-sized tandem accelerator (~1 MeV/amu) have been considered. LÄS MER
2. Stabilization remediation of soils contaminated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs)
Sammanfattning : Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a major global concern in pollution of drinking water sources and aquatic environments. Due to the high persistence and mobility of these compounds, remediation methods for PFAS-contaminated soils are urgently needed to protect the surrounding environment and drinking water source areas.

3. Residential biomass combustion - emissions of organic compounds to air from wood pellets and other new alternatives
Sammanfattning : It is important to increase the use of biofuels for residential heating in order to decrease the use of fossil fuels and their impact on global warming. The smoke from the combustion of biomass contains a large number of compounds, which to varying degrees can affect the environment and human health. LÄS MER
4. Leaching and solvent extraction of rare earth metals from fluorescent lamp waste
Sammanfattning : With the rapid advancement of technology, the demand for elements such as rare earth metals (REMs) has increased considerably during the last decade. Many countries are facing problems securing sustainable supplies, a fact acknowledged in many publications. LÄS MER
5. Degradation Pathways of Dimethylmercury in Natural Waters
Sammanfattning : Mercury (Hg) is a naturally occurring toxic trace metal whose release into the environment has been (and still is) exacerbated by human activities. The bioavailability of Hg is tied to its chemical speciation, with monomethylmercury (MMHg) being the primary form of Hg that bioaccumulates and biomagnifies. LÄS MER
