  1. 6. Life Cycle Thinking in Environmentally Preferable Procurement

    Författare :Elisabeth Hochschorner; Göran Finnveden; Anna Björklund; Ann-Marie Tillman; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Life Cycle Thinking; Life Cycle Assessment; Environmental Procurement; Life Cycle Costing; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Products generate environmental impacts during their life cycle by consuming raw materials and energy, releasing emissions and producing waste. A procurement organisation can be a considerable driving force for more environmentally friendly products e.g. by requiring that products meet certain environmental criteria. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Kind of turquoise : Effects of seafood eco-certification and sustainable consumption

    Författare :Malin Jonell; Patrik Rönnbäck; Max Troell; Michael Tlusty; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; eco-certification; eco-labeling; seafood; aquaculture; shrimp; LCA; consumer behavior; marin ekotoxikologi; Marine Ecotoxicology;

    Sammanfattning : Aquaculture and fisheries hold promise for supplying a growing world population with healthy food produced without undermining the earth’s carrying capacity. However, just as livestock production and agriculture, seafood production can have negative environmental impacts and if a continuous or even increased supply is to be guaranteed, the pressure on affected ecosystems needs to be limited.

  4. 8. The Use of Sustainability Criteria : In the Case of the EU Legislation on Biofuels in the Transport Sector

    Författare :Evgenia Pavlovskaia; Juridiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; miljörätt; biobränsle; miljöskydd; hållbar utveckling; hållbarhetskriterier; environmental law; Directive 2015 1513; Directive 2009 28 EC; transport biofuels; environmental protection; sustainable development; sustainability criteria; EU energy law;

    Sammanfattning : In the licentiate thesis, it is researched and analyzed how sustainability criteria may be used in a legal framework, with the purpose to promote and safeguard sustainable products and their production. The research and analysis are conducted on the basis of the EU approach to use sustainability criteria for biofuels in the transport sector, legally expressed in Directive 2009/28/EC, and its amendments in Directive 2015/1513.

  5. 9. Emissions from realistic operation of residential wood pellets heating systems

    Författare :Kaung Myat Win; Rebei Bel Fdhila; Tomas Persson; Erik Dahlquist; Henrik Thunman; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood pellet; Heating; Combustion; boiler; stove; emissions; particulate matter; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik; SWX-Energi; Integrerade system för sol och biobränsle;

    Sammanfattning : Emissions from residential combustion appliances vary significantly depending on the firing behaviours and combustion conditions, in addition to combustion technologies and fuel quality. Although wood pellet combustion in residential heating boilers is efficient, the combustion conditions during start-up and stop phases are not optimal and produce significantly high emissions such as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon from incomplete combustion.
