31. Multielement Urban Geochemistry : Exporing the Expected, the Unexpected and the Unknown
Sammanfattning : Urban areas are hot-spots for the human use of most elements. These elements are the building blocks of our various goods and chemicals and are used both purposely and in a more unaware fashion. There are many ways in which the elements get dispersed from the human use. Commonly acknowledged and evident processes of dispersion are point sources (e. LÄS MER
32. Monitoring persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in sub-Arctic and Arctic marine mammals, 1984 - 2009
Sammanfattning : The Arctic has become an important indicator region for assessing persistence and bioaccumulation properties of persistent organic pollutants (POPs). This thesis is aimed at evaluating the occurrence of persistent halogenated POPs in seven species of sub-Arctic and Arctic marine mammals over a 25-year period. LÄS MER
33. Environmental assessment of municipal solid waste incinerator bottom ash in road constructions
Sammanfattning : There are several incentives for using bottom ash from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI bottom ash) as a construction material, such as for road construction. These incentives include decreased disposal of material on landfills and a reduced amount of raw material extracted for road building purposes. LÄS MER
34. Simplifying complex models : Application of modeling tools in exposure assessment of organic pollutants
Sammanfattning : Thousands of chemicals are used in society, but the exposure to humans and other organisms has been measured only for a small number of compounds. Modeling tools constitute low-cost and effective alternatives to measurements for the assessment of exposure. LÄS MER
35. Hydrolysis and photolysis of brominated flame retardants and some traditional persistent organic pollutants : Reactivity as a tool in fate assessement of chemicals
Sammanfattning : An organic compound that remains in the environment for a long time is regarded as a persistent organic pollutant (POP). Still, persistency is not a well defined property with a firm definition. Instead it is a conceptual property of chemicals for which DDT and PCB are typical representatives. LÄS MER
