  2. 1. Facilitating electron transfer in bioelectrocatalytic systems

    Author : Alina Sekretaryova; Mats Eriksson; Mikhail Vagin; Anthony Turner; Evgeny Katz; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Bioelectrocatalytic systems are based on biological entities, such as enzymes, whole cells, parts of cells or tissues, which catalyse electrochemical processes that involve the interaction between chemical change and electrical energy. In all cases, biocatalysis is implemented by enzymes, isolated or residing inside cells or part of cells. READ MORE

  4. 2. Parameter estimation in heterogeneous catalysis

    Author : Jonas Sjöblom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; microkinetic modelling; Jacobian; Parameter estimation; Latent Variable models; Design of experiments; heterogeneous catalysis; sensitivity analysis; Experimental design;

    Abstract : The detailed modelling of heterogeneous catalytic systems is challenging due to the unknown nature of new catalytic materials as well as the often required transient nature of the resulting models. Thus, this thesis deals with the methodologies involved in the kinetic modelling of heterogeneous catalysis and in particular NOx reduction systems. READ MORE

  5. 3. Chemical intolerance : disability and health aspects from a biopsychosocial perspective

    Author : Anna Söderholm; Ingrid Liljelind; Steven Nordin; Berit Edvardsson; Christer Jansson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chemical intolerance; multiple chemical sensitivity; sensory hyperreactivity; environmental intolerance; International Classification of Functioning; Disability and Health ICF ; questionnaire development; reliability; validity; coping; lived experience; mixed method; Public health; folkhälsa;

    Abstract : Background: Chemical intolerance (CI) is a term used for individuals experiencing symptoms triggered by odorous and pungent substances such as perfume, cleaning agents, mold smell and tobacco smoke. The prevalence of CI range from 0.5-52% depending on definition, and it is overrepresented among women. READ MORE

  6. 4. Development of advanced chemical biology tools for microbiome metabolism : Chemoselective probes for enhanced metabolomics analysis

    Author : Weifeng Lin; Daniel Globisch; Frank Schroeder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chemical biology; Chemoselective modification; Chemical metabolomics; Bioorganic; Microbiome metabolism; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The human microbiome has a profound impact on host physiology by generating highly reactive compounds that can contribute to the development of diseases. These microbial metabolites have a substantial potential that can serve as valuable indicators or biomarkers for different health conditions. READ MORE

  7. 5. Bio-SNG from Thermal Gasification - Process Synthesis, Integration and Performance

    Author : Stefan Heyne; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; process integration; process modelling; performance indicators; biomass; energy systems; synthetic natural gas; gasification;

    Abstract : Biomethane or synthetic natural gas (Bio-SNG) produced from gasified renewable woody biomass is a promising option for replacing fossil natural gas. The complete interchangeability with natural gas in all its conventional applications such as in the power generation, transportation and chemical industry sector is of particular interest. READ MORE
