1. Towards Energy-Efficient Drinking Water Production using Biomimicry
Sammanfattning : Water is a prerequisite for life and we therefore need pure drinking water to survive. Yet there are more than half a billion people that do not have access to pure drinking water. Water treatment can be performed in many different ways, one of the most commonly used being filtration. LÄS MER
2. Assessing and optimizing biofilter performance in drinking water treatment
Sammanfattning : Biological filtration is a widely used treatment barrier in drinking water treatment plants to ensure the biological stability of treated water in distribution systems. Biofilters remove particulate and dissolved organic matter (DOM) and biodegradable organic matter from water. LÄS MER
3. Partial renewal of granular activated carbon filters for improved drinking water treatment
Sammanfattning : Drinking water is widely collected from surface water sources. In these water sources, both the quantity and quality of natural organic matter (NOM) have been affected around the world during the last decades, especially in Northern Europe and North America. LÄS MER
4. Simulation and Optimization of Recirculating Aquaculture Systems
Sammanfattning : Recirculating aquaculture -- intensive fish farming with water treatment and reuse -- has great potential as a method for sustainable food production. Benefits over traditional aquaculture include opportunities to reduce nitrogen emissions to water, control of temperature, salinity and pH, reduced environmental impact of escapes and better protection against e.

5. Tracking changes in dissolved natural organic matter composition : evaluating drinking water production using optical and molecular level tools
Sammanfattning : During the last decades, the abundance of dissolved organic matter (DOM), a complex heterogeneous mixture of organic compounds, has increased in many surface waters in Northern Europe and North America. Surface waters are widely used as raw water sources for drinking water production. LÄS MER
