11. Creating value from bio-residuals : Biogas solutions for biobased industries in Scandinavia
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on biogas solutions for biobased industries as substrate management or energy providers. It investigates how such solutions are set up, what factors are important for their development, the effects on society and biobased industries, and the possibility of having biogas solutions as part of a sustainability strategy for biobased industries.

12. Resource efficient products in a circular economy – The case of consumables. From environmental and resource assessment to design guidelines
Sammanfattning : The circular economy (CE) is a concept to challenge the unsustainable production, consumption, and waste management of products, through the recirculation of resources and products through various means while reducing environmental impact. Within this concept, many measures are recommended for reducing environmental impact and resource use. LÄS MER
13. Adaptiveness, Asynchrony, and Resource Efficiency in Parallel Stochastic Gradient Descent
Sammanfattning : Accelerated digitalization and sensor deployment in society in recent years poses critical challenges for associated data processing and analysis infrastructure to scale, and the field of big data, targeting methods for storing, processing, and revealing patterns in huge data sets, has surged. Artificial Intelligence (AI) models are used diligently in standard Big Data pipelines due to their tremendous success across various data analysis tasks, however exponential growth in Volume, Variety and Velocity of Big Data (known as its three V’s) in recent years require associated complexity in the AI models that analyze it, as well as the Machine Learning (ML) processes required to train them.

14. Assessing Mineral Resource Scarcity in a Circular Economy Context
Sammanfattning : Due to humanity’s dependence on metal resources there are growing concerns regarding impacts related to their potential scarcity, both for current and future generations. The vision of a more circular economy suggests that extending the functional use of metals through measures aiming for resource-efficiency (RE) such as increasing technical lifetime, repairing and recycling could reduce mineral resource scarcity.

15. Incentivising Innovation in the Swedish Construction Industry
Sammanfattning : Almost 40 percent of global final energy use and CO2 emissions are connected to buildings and building-related activities; it is therefore important to incentivise the design and construction of resource-efficient buildings. Unfortunately, energy demand and associated emissions in the sector continue to grow. LÄS MER
