1. A comparative cost analysis of conventional wrought steel and powder metallurgy (PM) gear manufacturing technologies
Sammanfattning : The transportation industry landscape is going through a massive transformation due to trends such as autonomous and electrified vehicles. The electrification trend has already started to display its ample influence on the automotive industry. LÄS MER
2. Towards renewable chemicals production in cyanobacteria
Sammanfattning : The intensive fossil fuel combustion by humanity resulted in the increase of atmospheric CO2 concentration creating the greenhouse effect, which in turn causes severe environmental problems. Thus, humanity should find solutions to decrease dependency on fossil hydrocarbons in order to lower CO2 emission into the atmosphere. LÄS MER
3. Harnessing the potential of filamentous fungi for sustainable and healthy food system
Sammanfattning : Food systems have the potential to improve human health while contributing to environmental sustainability; however, they are currently endangering both. The current food system, which is often based on animal farming, is responsible for global greenhouse gas emissions, and increases the incidence of, and mortality from, non-communicable diseases.

4. Metabolic engineering strategies to increase n-butanol production from cyanobacteria
Sammanfattning : The development of sustainable replacements for fossil fuels has been spurred by concerns over global warming effects. Biofuels are typically produced through fermentation of edible crops, or forest or agricultural residues requiring cost-intensive pretreatment. LÄS MER
5. Hydrolases as Catalysts for Green Chemistry and Industrial Applications - Esterase, Lipase and Phytase
Sammanfattning : The use of enzymes in industrial applications has been recognised for providing clean processes with minimal impact on the environment. This thesis presents studies on engineering of enzymes and enzyme-based processes in the light of green chemistry and environmental sustainability, and focuses on three hydrolases: esterase, lipase and phytase.
