1. Environmental Considerations in the Zero-waste Valorisation of Bauxite Residue : A Life Cycle Perspective
Sammanfattning : Bauxite residue, also known as red mud, is produced in large quantities as a result of alumina refining (the first stage in aluminium production), and is one of the world’s most abundant and important industrial wastes. As demand for aluminium continues to increase and space to store this residue diminishes, the potential to utilise bauxite residue as a secondary resource is increasingly being considered by the alumina industry.

2. Protecting food with poison : Exploring ecotoxicity of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals
Sammanfattning : Chemicals are being emitted into the environment through human activities, such as agriculture or animal husbandry. Emissions can either occur intentionally, as pesticide application of crops, or inadvertently, such as pharmaceutical residues in wastewater effluents. LÄS MER
3. A Life Cycle Approach to Environmental Sustainability in Aggregate Production Systems
Sammanfattning : Rock materials, such as sand, gravel, and crushed rock, serve as the foundation of our society. Known collectively as aggregates, these materials are essential for building foundations, concrete, and roads, making them the second most extracted material globally after water. LÄS MER
4. Performance Measures of Road Infrastructures
Sammanfattning : Roads are transport infrastructures that play a fundamental role in the development of societies and businesses. They are valuable assets, as they connect places, provide mobility, create jobs and stimulate economic prosperity. LÄS MER
5. Utilization of local bioresources for transport fuels - System analysis for decision support
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a comprehensive system analysis of the utilization of biowaste and forest industry residues to produce transportation fuels. It explores various aspects such as the constraints to the production system’s value chain development, the utilization of the geographical proximity of biofuel technology innovation system components, environmental impacts, and economic costs.
