1. The measurement of chemical persistence in the field by benchmarking : Theory and Experiment
Sammanfattning : Persistence is one of the core criteria in chemical exposure and hazard assessment. It is often defined as the half-life for the removal of a chemical from a specified environment by transformation. Chemicals with long transformation half-lives may pose high risks for wildlife or humans and be subject to long-range transport to remote areas. LÄS MER
2. The measurement of chemical persistence in lakes using benchmarking techniques
Sammanfattning : The persistence of a chemical that indicates resistance to degradation is one of the core criteria for exposure and hazard assessment of chemicals. However, it is rarely measured in the real environment because of the lack of appropriate methods. LÄS MER
3. Thermal Aspects and Electrolyte Mass Transport in Lithium-ion Batteries
Sammanfattning : Temperature is one of the most important parameters for the performance, safety, and aging of lithium-ion batteries and has been linked to all main barriers for widespread commercial success of electric vehicles.The aim of this thesis is to highlight the importance of temperature effects, as well as to provide engineering tools to study these. LÄS MER
4. Reactions of aqueous radiolysis products with oxide surfaces : An experimental and DFT study
Sammanfattning : The reactions between aqueous radiolysis products and oxide surfaces are important in nuclear technology in many ways. In solid-liquid systems, they affect (and at the same time are dependent on) both the solution chemistry and the stability of materials under the influence of ionizing radiation. LÄS MER
5. Toxicometabolomics and biotransformation product screening in single zebrafish embryos
Sammanfattning : Over the last decade environmental agencies worldwide have escalated their work to phase out animal testing for the purposes of chemical regulation. Meanwhile the number of commercially available chemicals and the requirements for hazard assessments have both increased, creating a large need for substitution of traditional in vivo assays with in vitro tests.
