  1. 1. Development of catalysts for natural gas-fired gas turbine combustors

    Author : Sara Eriksson; Magali Boutonnet; Pio Forzatti; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; AZEP; catalytic combustion; CPO; methane oxidation; palladium; rhodium; support effect; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Due to continuously stricter regulations regarding emissions from power generation processes, further development of existing gas turbine combustors is essential. A promising alternative to conventional flame combustion in gas turbines is catalytic combustion, which can result in ultralow emission levels of NOx, CO and unburned hydrocarbons. READ MORE

  2. 2. Catalytic partial oxidation of methane over nickel and ruthenium based catalysts for GTL applications

    Author : Jorge A. Velasco; Magali Boutonnet; Sven Järås; Henrik Kusar; Stan Kolaczkowski; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Catalytic partial oxidation; carbon formation; GTL; nickel; ruthenium; synthesis gas; thermodynamic equilibrium.; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : The Gas to Liquids (GTL) process is an important alternative for monetizing natural gas through the production of long-chain liquid hydrocarbons, e.g. diesel fuel. READ MORE

  3. 3. Speech outcome in children born with cleft lip and palate treated with one-stage palate repair : aspects of function and environment

    Author : Jill Nyberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduction and aims: This project focused on speech outcomes at 5 and 10 years of age after two different surgical protocols and on peer perceptions of speech in children born with cleft palate. The aim was to gain knowledge about speech outcome in children born with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) or cleft palate only (CPO), treated with one-stage palatoplasty at approximately 12 months of age, according to two different surgical protocols: minimal incision technique (MIT) and minimal incision technique with muscle reconstruction (MITmr).

  4. 4. Protection of Biomolecules by Antioxidants - Mechanisms and Applications

    Author : Carl Grey; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dG; antioxidants; mass spectrometry; Analytical chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; DNA; Oxidation; Protein; Fenton reaction;

    Abstract : Reactive oxygen species (ROS) consisting of various oxygen-based free radicals as well as other reactive non-radical species produced in O2-related metabolism or through other processes are involved in the oxidation of such vital biomolecules as DNA, proteins and lipids. The types of oxidation represented here are known to cause many different diseases and disorders in human beings, such as cancer, Alzheimer's disease and ageing. READ MORE

  5. 5. Craniofacial malformations and psychiatric disorders from a neurodevelopmental perspective

    Author : Karin K. Tillman; Fotios Papadopoulos; Lisa Ekselius; Mia Ramklint; Daniel Nowinski; Clara Hellner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Nonsyndromic orofacial clefts; Nonsyndromic craniosynostosis; Neurodevelopmental disorders; Psychiatric disorders; Educational achievements; Child and Youth Psychiatry; Barn- och ungdomspsykiatri;

    Abstract : Orofacial clefts (OFC) and craniosynostosis (CS) are the two most common craniofacial malformations. Of note, craniofacial abnormalities share some overlapping risk factors with psychiatric disorders. Thus, this thesis aimed to study psychiatric and educational outcomes in this group. READ MORE
