1. Nutrient use strategies of plants of various life-forms in a subarctic environment : Nutrient conservation as an adaption to infertile habitats
Sammanfattning : Plant performance in relation to limiting nutrients was analysed using the concept of nutrient use efficiency (NUE). NUE can be decomposed into (1) the nutrient productivity (aNP) and (2) the mean residence time (MRT). LÄS MER
2. Anaerobic digestion of horse manure : renewable energy and plant nutrients in a systems perspective
Sammanfattning : In horse keeping horse manure is produced, which can be utilized as a fertilizer or considered a waste. Horse manure constitutes a resource in terms of both plant nutrients and energy. In addition energy policies and objectives aim at replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources. LÄS MER
3. Chemical Properties of FBC Ashes
Sammanfattning : In this thesis several aspects of ash chemistry are discussed. An issue of primary concern for boiler operators is the formation of ash deposits. New biomass fuels are introduced, many of which have unfavourable ash melting behaviour due to high levels of alkali metal species and chlorine. LÄS MER
4. The Technology and Economy of Farm-Scale, High-Solids Anaerobic Digestion of Plant Biomass
Sammanfattning : Anaerobic digestion is a microbially mediated process occurring in nature in the absence of oxygen and other non-carbonaceous electron acceptors. The majority of the carbon of the organic matter degraded in the process is transformed into carbon dioxide and methane. LÄS MER
5. Recycling plant nutrients from waste and by-products : a life cycle perspective
Sammanfattning : Chemical fertilisers contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, fossil fuel use, use of non-renewable phosphate rock and a flow of reactive nitrogen to the biosphere, exceeding the planetary boundaries. Recycling of plant nutrients from waste and by-products from society would reduce the use of chemical fertilisers. LÄS MER
