  1. 6. Farm-based technologies for management of risks from irrigation with wastewater-polluted sources in Cochabamba, Bolivia

    Författare :Luis Fernando Perez Mercado; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Wastewater irrigation is a global practice that allows reusing water and nutrients in agriculture, but also poses risks of introducing pathogens/pollutants into agricultural systems and food. In order to manage these risks, on-farm measures can be implemented as barriers along the pathway that pathogens/pollutants must follow to reach the population/place at risk, in cases where treatment plants are not a viable option.

  3. 7. Precipitation, Raw Water Quality, Drinking Water Treatment and Gastrointestinal Illness

    Författare :Andreas Tornevi; Bertil Forsberg; Gordon Langston Nichols; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; epidemiologi; Epidemiology;

    Sammanfattning : Background On numerous occasions, outbreaks of acute gastrointestinal illnesses (AGI) have been linked to municipal drinking water in the industrialised world. Many of the reported outbreaks were observed after heavy rainfall events, which suggests that such events could result in a deterioration in the quality of drinking water. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Phytoremediation of mercury by terrestrial plants

    Författare :Yaodong Wang; Maria Greger; Lena Kautsky; Douglas Godbold; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phytoremediation; phytoextraction; phytostabilization; bioavailability; willow; Hg; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Mercury (Hg) pollution is a global environmental problem. Numerous Hg-contaminated sites exist in the world and new techniques for remediation are urgently needed. LÄS MER

  5. 9. District Heating and CHP : Local Possibilities for Global Climate Change Mitigation

    Författare :Kristina Difs; G. Björn Karlsson; Louise Trygg; Thomas B. Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :District heating; combined heat and power; carbon dioxide emissions; optimisation; energy policies; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Global warming, in combination with increasing energy demand and higher energy prices, makes it necessary to change the energy use. To secure the energy supply and to develop sustainable societies, construction of energy-efficient systems is at the same time most vital. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Relationships between global operations networks and product architectures

    Författare :Sebastian Pashaei; Teknisk logistik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Supply chain; Integral; Modular; Multiple-case study; survey;

    Sammanfattning : Globalization has resulted in more segments and product configurations to meet the needs of various customers in different markets. For manufacturers to keep up, the operations footprint has become more global to source from the most appropriate suppliers but also have manufacturing sites in close proximity to the main local markets.
