  1. 31. Betulin-modified cellulosic textile fibers with improved water repellency, hydrophobicity and antibacterial properties

    Författare :Tianxiao Huang; Monica Ek; Mats Johansson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibacterial; Betulin; Biorefinery; Cellulose; Grafting; Coating; Hydrophobicity; Textile; Water repellency; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Textiles made from natural sources, such as cotton and flax, have advantages over those made of synthetic fibers in terms of sustainability. Unlike major synthetic fibers that have a negative impact on the environment due to poor biodegradability, cotton cellulose is a renewable material. LÄS MER

  3. 32. Indigenous microalgae-activated sludge cultivation system for wastewater treatment

    Författare :Anbarasan Anbalagan; Emma Nehrenheim; Carl-Fredrik Lindberg; Sebastian Schwede; Raquel Labrero; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The municipal wastewater is mainly composed of water containing anthropogenic wastes that are rich in nutrients such as carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous. The cost for biological treatment of wastewater is increasing globally due to the population growth in urban cities. LÄS MER

  4. 33. Characterization and Directed Evolution of an Alcohol Dehydrogenase : A Study Towards Understanding of Three Central Aspects of Substrate Selectivity

    Författare :Emil Hamnevik; Mikael Widersten; Gerrit Poelarends; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Alcohol dehydrogenase; ADH-A; Biocatalysis; Directed evolution; Enantioselectivity; Enzyme kinetics; Enzyme mechanisms; Protein Engineering; Regioselectivity; Substrate selectivity; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Many different chemicals are used in the everyday life, like detergents and pharmaceuticals. However, their production has a big impact on health and environment as much of the raw materials are not renewable and the standard ways of production in many cases includes toxic and environmentally hazardous components.

  5. 34. Kraft lignin valorization by hydrotreatment over Mo-based sulfided catalysts

    Författare :Muhammad Abdus Salam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Char; Bio-oil; Kraft Lignin; Hydrodeoxygenation; Y-zeolite; Metal sulfide; Depolymerization; Acidity;

    Sammanfattning : The production of green fuels and chemicals from bio-based feedstock can suppress the dependency on fossil resources and help mitigate global climate challenges. Kraft lignin is a thermochemically modified natural lignin obtained from the pulping process as a byproduct. LÄS MER

  7. 35. Strategies for Utilizing Biobased and Recycled Resources for Polylactide Plasticization

    Författare :Xi Yang; Minna Hakkarainen; Karin Odelius; Youssef Habibi; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polylactide; poly 3-hydroxybutyrate ; poly butylene succinate-co-adipate ; bio-based; microwave; reactive extrusion; recycling; plasticizing; migration resistance; crystallization; polylaktid; poly 3-hydroxibutyrat ; poly butylen succinat-sam-adipat ; biobaserade; mikrovågsugn; reaktiv extrudering; återvinning; mjukgörare; migrationsmotstånd; kristallisering; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : There are many aspects that should be considered to achieve truly "environmental friendly" and "sustainable" materials. These include the raw material resource, the energy consumption, the chemicals generated and used, the emissions during production, processing, transportation, disposal and so on. LÄS MER
