16. Drainage intensity in paddy rice fields : nitrogen flows, salinity, rice yield and greenhouse gas emissions
Sammanfattning : Managing drainage intensity is important in controlling soil moisture and nutrient losses and improving crop yields. This thesis evaluated the effects of drainage intensity on nitrogen losses, salinity and rice grain yield in three cropping seasons, and on gaseous emissions of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) from rice flowering to ripening in one season, on a marshland in semiarid region of Rwanda.

17. Climate-friendly rice - characterisation of rice varieties associated with low-methane emissions and improved bioenergy properties
Sammanfattning : Paddy rice cultivation contributes to global warming by emitting methane into the atmosphere. The aims of the work presented in this thesis were to breed climatefriendly rice varieties, to increase rice straw utilisation to reduce the impact of rice cultivation on the environment. LÄS MER
18. Pyrolysis of Biodegradable Waste for Negative Carbon Emissions
Sammanfattning : Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage represents a crucial technology that enables an energy production with negative carbon emissions, which is needed to achieve global climate goals. Appropriated management of biodegradable waste, including biodegradable lignocellulosic waste, sewage sludge, organic fraction of municipal solid waste, can make this contribution. LÄS MER
19. Anaerobic digestion of crop and waste biomass: Impact of feedstock characteristics on process performance
Sammanfattning : Anaerobic digestion provides an array of positive environmental benefits such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions, replacing mineral fertilizers, producing renewable energy and treating waste. However, pitfalls in anaerobic digestion such as poor methane yields, process instability, process failure and regional shortages of feedstock have limited the full exploitation of the anaerobic digestion process.

20. Evaluation of process parameters and treatments of different raw materials for biogas production
Sammanfattning : The anaerobic digestion process results in the production of biogas from a large diversity of organic residues, which can be used as an alternate source of energy generation and for waste management. However, the biogas production technology is not exploited efficiently due to the characteristics of raw materials, poor methane yields, process instability, limited raw materials and lack of knowledge about the process.
