1. Conservation Laws, Numerical Schemes and Control Strategies for Sedimentation and Wastewater Treatment
Sammanfattning : A consistent theme throughout this thesis is quasilinear partial differential equations (PDEs) appearing in one-dimensional models of sedimentation for solid-liquid separation of suspensions. We mainly focus on continuous sedimentation in so-called clarifier-thickeners (CTs), which are found in mineral processing and wastewater treatment. LÄS MER
2. Long-term changes in macroalgal vegetation on the Swedish coast : An evaluation of eutrophication effects with special emphasis on increased organic sedimentation
Sammanfattning : In this thesis I examine and evaluate the effects of a documented large-scale eutrophication on macroalgal vegetation on the Swedish coast. During the past century the load of nutrients has increased manifold in the Baltic Sea area, increasing primary production and organic sedimentation significantly. LÄS MER
3. Fermentation of undetoxified dilute acid lignocellulose hydrolysate for fuel ethanol production
Sammanfattning : Important aspects of ethanol production from undetoxified dilute acid lignocellulose hydrolysate are covered in this thesis, which primarily focuses on the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker's yeast) as the biocatalyst. Nine different strains of S. LÄS MER
4. Convection-diffusion-reaction models of sedimentation : Numerical approximation, analysis of solutions and inverse problems
Sammanfattning : The core of this Doctoral thesis is mainly based in the studies of one-dimensional initial-boundary value problems, which are given by a single non-linear hyperbolic partial differential equation (PDE) with non-convex flux function, or by a system of strongly degenerate parabolic PDEs, for the simulation of sedimentation processes of solid particles immersed in a fluid. Particular attention is paid to the case of settling in vessels with varying cross-sectional area. LÄS MER
5. Combining limnology and paleolimnology : a refined understanding of environmental sediment signal formation in a varved lake
Sammanfattning : Paleoclimatic archives, such as lake sediments, extend our understanding of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem dynamics in relation to climate variability beyond the period covered by instrumental data. In this context, annually laminated (i.e. LÄS MER
