2. 1. Antibiotic resistance in biogas processes

   Author : He Sun; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a well-established technology that can play a key role in development of a sustainable society. In AD, organic wastes such as animal manure, food waste and crop residues are used as substrate and converted to biogas and digestate, which represent green energy and a biofertiliser. READ MORE

4. 2. Chemical characterization in the biorefinery of lignocellulose : Formation and management of oxalic acid and analysis of feedstocks for bioethanol production

   Author : Anders Sjöde; Nils-Olof Nilvebrant; Leif J. Jönsson; Arthur J. Ragauskas; Karlstads universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; biorefinery; enzymes; ethanol; lignocellulosic feedstocks; oxalic acid; scaling; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : The pulp and paper industry is entering a new era. Pulp mills will be transformed to biorefineries that produce not only pulp, but also biofuels and novel products from lignocellulose. This thesis addresses problems connected with the industrial transition to environmental-friendly technologies and the implementation of the biorefinery concept. READ MORE

5. 3. Closed-loop strategy for valorization of starch : From starch to functionalized starch biomaterials and bioplastics

   Abstract : The desire to utilize renewable resources and avoid wastes drives us to develop new concepts for material design. Non-edible starch feedstocks and starch bioplastic wastes were previously considered useless. READ MORE

6. 4. No time to waste : Pre-hospital actions and time delays in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction – temporal trends and prognostic impact on short- and long-term survival

   Author : Maria Ericsson; Ingela Thylén; Anna Strömberg; Sofia Sederholm Lawesson; Emil Hagström; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Background: In ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, a rapid diagnosis is imperative to reduce total ischaemic time minimizing risk for heart failure, serious arrhythmias, or death. Prehospital context is complex, and the patient delay constitute major part of the pre-hospital phase. READ MORE
