1. 1. Water Governance : Policy, Politics and Regulation in Honduras

   Författare :Patricia Phumpiu; Jan-Erik Gustafsson; Cecilia Scharp; Jose Esteban Castro; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Water Governance; Honduras; Institutions; Policy; Politics; Regulatory Governance; Regulatory State; Water engineering; Vattenteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Water governance exerts an impact on the socio-politic life of Honduras. For instance, the new legal framework changes institutions. New water organisations are created, and new processes and proceedings are proposed. LÄS MER

3. 2. Enlightening Water : Science, market & regulation of mineral waters in eighteenth-century France

   Författare :Armel Cornu; H. Otto Sibum; Hjalmar Fors; Sven Widmalm; Jakob Vogel; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Mineral waters; Eighteenth century; French Enlightenment; History of science; History of chemistry; Social history; Société de Médecine; History of Sciences and Ideas; Idé- och lärdomshistoria;

   Sammanfattning : My thesis investigates the process through which French mineral waters were conceptually and materially transformed by the forces of market, regulation, and science during the Enlightenment. Tracing this process deepens current understandings of eighteenth-century societies, and presents a novel image of the development of medicine and chemistry. LÄS MER

4. 3. Challenges and Opportunities For Safe Water Supply in Mozambique

   Författare :Nelson Matsinhe; Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; service quality; sustainability.; water treatment; water supply;

   Sammanfattning : In Mozambique, despite considerable investments in the promotion of drinking water supplies, the access to quality water of sufficient quantity for the majority of people is still far from optimal. Current official figures report that nearly half of the country´s population and about 45 per cent of urban residents do not have access to safe water. LÄS MER

5. 4. Streams, Steams, and Steels : A Transnational History of Risk Regulation in Nuclear Power Plants (1850–1985)

   Författare :Siegfried Evens; Per Högselius; Kati Lindström; Anna Storm; Scott Knowles; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Nuclear; risk; water; steam; steel; regulation; safety; Nucléaire; risque; eau; vapeur; acier; sûreté; réglementation; Kärnkraft; risk; vatten; ånga; stål; säkerhet; History of Science; Technology and Environment; Historiska studier av teknik; vetenskap och miljö;

   Sammanfattning : Water is essential to produce nuclear energy and prevent nuclear disasters. As light water reactors are increasingly seen as a solution to achieving a sustainable energy transition and battling the climate crisis, it is more important than ever to investigate the risks of using water for nuclear power production.

7. 5. Effects of Watershed Dynamics on Water Reservoir Operation Planning : Considering the Dynamic Effects of Streamflow in Hydropower Operation

   Författare :Nicholas Zmijewski; Anders Wörman; Andrea Bottacin-Busolin; Francesca Pianosi; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; reservoir operation; dispersion processes; wave diffusion; multi-objective operation; water resource management; discharge variability; power spectrum analysis; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : Water reservoirs are used to regulate river discharge for a variety of reasons, such as flood mitigation, water availability for irrigation, municipal consumption and power production purposes. Recent efforts to increase the amount of renewable power production have seen an increase in intermittent climate-variable power production due to wind and solar power production. LÄS MER
