11. Chemical characteristics of atmospheric aerosols : the influence of natural and man-made sources and sinks
Sammanfattning : In order to improve the understanding of the climatic and environmental effects of atmospheric aerosol particles, knowledge about their sources, sinks, chemical and physical characteristics as well as transportation in the atmosphere is needed. This thesis examines the water-soluble chemical characteristics of aerosol particles and precipitation and their interaction with trace gases. LÄS MER

Sammanfattning : Heavy metal pollutants, discharged into the ecosystem as waste by anthropogenic activities, contaminate drinking water for millions of people and animals in many regions of the world. Long term exposure to these metals, leads to several lethal diseases like cancer, keratosis, gangrene, diabetes, cardio- vascular disorders, etc. LÄS MER
13. Safe Nutrient Recovery from Human Urine - System and Hygiene Evaluation of Alkaline Urine Dehydration
Sammanfattning : Only 7% of the world’s wastewater receives tertiary treatment, while the rest is causing eutrophication, hypoxia and climate change through the plant nutrients found in excreta, particularly urine. If managed adequately, urine can be used as a fertiliser because it contains the same nutrients as the fertilisers used to produce food world-wide. LÄS MER
