  1. 21. Release to the Gas Phase of Potassium, Chlorine, and Sulfur from Biomass Fuels under Dual Fluidized Bed Gasification Conditions

    Författare :Placid Tchoffor Atongka; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : The transformation and release of ash-forming elements during the thermal conversion of biomass are conducive to ash-related problems, for example, agglomeration of the bed material in fluidized beds. The occurrence and severity of ash-related problems largely depend on the extents to which potassium (K), chlorine (Cl), and sulfur (S) are released from biomass fuels to the gas phase during thermal conversion processes.

  3. 22. Deterioration Models and Road Capital as Tools in Performance Contracts for Pavement Maintenance

    Författare :Peter Ekdahl; Trafik och väg; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknik; pavement management system; performance contract; pavement maintenance; deterioration model; Technological sciences; road capital; Social sciences; Samhällsvetenskaper;

    Sammanfattning : A reorganization of the Swedish National Road Administration (SNRA) has urged a demand to work as a professional agency only, without any work by direct labor. This structure has enforced a change in how to handle the pavement maintenance and performance contracts are being promoted since they encourage product development and sustainability. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Prescribed physical activity. A health economic analysis

    Författare :Åsa Romé; Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabilitering; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; physical activity; inactivity; costs; cost-effectiveness; quality of life; exercise referral; QALY; willingness to pay.;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to estimate health economic consequences of the four-month primary care program ”Physical Activity on Prescription (PAP)”. Inactivity means a highly increased independent risk factor for public health diseases and morbidity, and is an economic burden to society. LÄS MER
