  1. 21. Contaminated sediments: Methods to assess release and toxicity of organic chemical mixtures

    Författare :Lukas Mustajärvi; Anna Sobek; Jarkko Akkanen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sediment; Hydrophobic organic contaminants; Flux; Bioturbation; Passive sampling; Passive dosing; Mixture toxicity; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Bottom sediments around the world store large amounts of legacy hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs), forming mixtures of unknown chemical composition. Primary emissions to the environment of many HOCs have been reduced as a consequence of regulation. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Management and Treatment of Organotin and Metal Contaminated Dredged Sediment

    Författare :Anna Norén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tributyltin TBT ; electrolysis; metals; stabilization and solidification S S ; life cycle assessment LCA ; dredged sediment; copper Cu ; multicriteria analysis MCA ; zinc Zn ; Fenton’s reagent;

    Sammanfattning : Modern society is dependent on international trade and most traded goods are transported by sea. To enable this, regular dredging must be done to maintain water depth in ports and waterways, resulting in large quantities of often contaminated sediment that must be handled. LÄS MER

  4. 23. A Deep Dive into Sediments : Exploring approaches to assess environmental risks and achieving environmental goals in management of contaminated sediments in Sweden

    Författare :Peter Bruce; Clare Bradshaw; Yvonne Ohlsson; Anna Sobek; Sabine Apitz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sediment; risk assessment; risk evaluation; risk management; contaminants; regulations; weight of evidence; line of evidence; environmental goals; environmental management; guidelines; marin ekotoxikologi; Marine Ecotoxicology;

    Sammanfattning : Contaminated sediments are common, especially near urban and industrialized areas, and they can have negative ecological effects. In three studies, I explore the challenges for environmental management of contaminated sediments, focusing on environmental risk assessment (ERA) in Sweden. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) in a river ecosystem

    Författare :Gudrun Bremle; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrobiology; dredging; landfill; cleanup; remedial action; air; fish; sediment; Persistent organic pollutants; freshwater; marine biology; aquatic ecology; limnology; Marinbiologi; limnologi; akvatisk ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Atmospheric deposition is one source of persistent pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) in aquatic environments. Other point sources can also contribute to the PCB loadings in the water. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Local and global contaminants in Swedish waters : studies on PCBs, DDTs, 4,5,6-trichloroguaiacol and their transformation products in fish and sediments

    Författare :Maria Söderström; Åke Bergman; Bert van Bavel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PCB; DDT; HCB; trichloroguaiacol; transformation products; dimerisation; bromination; environmental pollutants; eutrophication; lakes; fresh water; baltic sea; monitoring; sediments; fish; phytoplankton; PCB; DDT; HCB; triklorguajakol; omvandlingsprodukter; dimerisering; bromering; miljöföroreningar; eutrofiering; sjöar; sötvatten; östersjön; miljöövervakning; sediment; fisk; fytoplankton; miljökemi; Environmental Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on studies on the environmental fate and methodological improvements for determination of the global contaminants, PCBs and DDTs, and locally discharged phenolics, e.g. 4,5,6-trichloroguaiacol (4,5,6-TCG), and their transformation products. LÄS MER
