1. Air diffusion and solid contaminant behaviour in room ventilation : a CFD based integrated approach
Sammanfattning : One of the most fundamental human needs is fresh air. It has been estimated that people spend comparatively much time in indoor premises. That creates an elevated need for high-quality ventilation systems in buildings. The ventilation airflow rate is recognised as the main parameter for measuring the indoor air quality. LÄS MER
2. Targeted and untargeted analysis of organic contaminants from on-site sewage treatment facilities : Removal, fate and environmental impact
Sammanfattning : On-site sewage treatment facilities (OSSFs) are widely used all over the world to treat wastewater when large-scale sewage treatment plants (STPs) are not economically feasible. Although there is great awareness that the release of untreated wastewater into the environment can lead to water-related diseases and eutrophication, little is known about organic contaminants and their removal by OSSFs, environmental load and fate.

3. Towards sustainable solid waste management in Jordan
Sammanfattning : Jordan is a country with a growing population that is undergoing rapid modernization. The increased volume of solid waste and associated logistical difficulties, the steady growth in the cost of waste management and the risk to human health are sources of concern. LÄS MER
4. Characterisation of residues : Release of contaminants from slags and ashes
Sammanfattning : Residues from industrial processes as well as from energy production utilities have in many cases properties similar to geological materials. They can be used as filling and construction materials if the net environmental impact and the technical properties are acceptable. LÄS MER
5. Removal of endocrine-disrupting compounds from wastewater using molecular imprinting
Sammanfattning : Endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) such as hormones and certain pharmaceuticals (i.e. birth control pills, oestrogen replacement products and other steroids) can interfere with the regulatory systems of humans and wildlife. Many of these compounds are excreted by humans and released with sewage. LÄS MER
