1. 16. Exploring the functionality of coconut proteins

   Författare :Borges Chambale; Livsmedelsteknik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Coconut; coconut milk; extraction; proteins; emulsions; functional properties; denaturation; gels; yield stress; glass structure;

   Sammanfattning : At present, coconut proteins are discarded as a waste product by the coconut oil industry. If the range of applications of coconut proteins is to be expanded, their potential functionalities should be investigated. Emulsions and gels are of the greatest interest in food industry. LÄS MER

3. 17. Energy Auditing and Efficiency in a Chain Hotel : the Case of Scandic, Järva Krog

   Författare :Branko Simanic; Björn Palm; Folke Björk; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi;

   Sammanfattning :   Energy efficiency and conservation measures in hotels is an area of research at the Department of Energy Technology, Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm (KTH), Sweden. As a continuation of the research work, this project was focused on a hotel's resource-use performance, considering both internal and external factors that influence their consumption. LÄS MER

4. 18. Zeolite adsorbents and catalysts for the recovery and production of biochemicals

   Författare :Abrar Faisal; Mattias Grahn; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Zeolites; Adsorbents; Catalyst; Butanol; Arginine; ZSM-5; Chemical Technology; Kemisk teknologi;

   Sammanfattning : Fossil based energy resources are dominating the world’s primary energy consumption for the last century. However, with decreasing crude oil reservoirs and the role they play in global warming by emitting greenhouse gases, the focus has been turned towards improved utilization of renewable resources and the need for new, sustainable fuels and chemicals is more urgent than ever.

5. 19. Ethanol production from lignocellulose using high local cell density yeast cultures. Investigations of flocculating and encapsulated Saccharomyces cerevisiae

   Författare :Johan Westman; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; yeast; encapsulation; lignocellulose; ethanol; fermentation; flocculation; inhibitors; tolerance; xylose; co-utilisation; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

   Sammanfattning : Efforts are made to change from 1st to 2nd generation bioethanol production, using lignocellulosics as raw materials rather than using raw materials that alternatively can be used as food sources. An issue with lignocellulosics is that a harsh pretreatment step is required in the process of converting them into fermentable sugars. LÄS MER

7. 20. ‘Less But Better’ Meat for Food System Sustainability - Exploring Meanings & Characterisations

   Författare :Kajsa Resare Sahlin; Line Gordon; Annika Carlsson-Kanyama; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ‘less but better’ meat; livestock; food system sustainability;

   Sammanfattning : Livestock systems are key drivers behind a range of pressing sustainability issues; but with that, also present central opportunities for leveraging positive food system change. The aim of this thesis is to contribute to increased understanding of what more sustainable meat production and consumption is, using ‘less but better’ as a framework. LÄS MER
