  2. 1. Optimisation Challenges in Pressurised Hot Water Extraction of Polyphenols: Extraction and Degradation Kinetics

    Author : Jiayin Liu; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Extraction kinetics; degradation kinetics; pressurised hot water extraction; optimisation; and anthocyanins; flavonoids; and polyphenols;

    Abstract : Pressurised hot water is an environmentally friendly alternative to hazardous organic solvents such as methanol and heptane. One of the many applications of using pressurised hot water extraction (PHWE) is to extract polyphenols from plants. The challenges in PHWE lies with the optimisation of extraction yield. READ MORE

  4. 2. Modification of Surface Properties Through Polymer Adsorption. Kinetics, Interaction, Degradation and Stability

    Author : Dries Muller; Fysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TIRF.; protein; poly lactide ; poly ethylene oxide ; gelatin; exchange; enzyme; ellipsometry; desorption; degradation; adsorption; copolymers; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : The interfacial behaviour of polymers in relation to surface modification and polymer degradation was studied. In the first part the interfacial behaviour of amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)–poly(D,L-lactide) (EmLn) diblock copolymers at hydrophilic and hydrophobic substrates from aquous solution was studied.

  5. 3. Hydrolytic and Oxidative Mechanisms Involved in Cellulose Degradation

    Author : Anu Nutt; Jerry Ståhlberg; Henrik Stålbrand; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Biochemistry; cellobiohydrolase; cellulase; cellulose; cellobiose dehydrogenase; endoglucanase; kinetics; synergism; competitive binding; Biokemi;

    Abstract : The enzymatic degradation of cellulose is an important process in nature. This thesis has focused on the degradation of cellulose by enzymes from two cellulose-degrading fungi, Hypocrea jecorina and Phanerochaete chrysosporium, including both the action of the individual enzymes and their synergistic interplay.

  6. 4. Pyrolysis profiles and global kinetics of tropical biomass : coconut and cashew nut shells

    Author : Alberto Júlio Tsamba; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermogravimetry; cashew nut cocnut shells; pyrolysis; kinetics; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Biomass has been recognised as renewable and environmentally friendly source of energy since decades. Tropical biomasses which are available in large quantities as residues in Latin America, Africa and Asia, have high energy potential for exploitation through thermochemical conversion process, as pyrolysis, gasification or combustion.

  7. 5. Heterogeneous Degradation and Recyclability of PP Studied by Imaging Chemiluminescence

    Author : Mikael Hamskog; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Teknik; Technological sciences; recyclability; mapping; surface; heterogeneity; heterogeneous; evaporation; ageing; hamamatsu; russel; ICL; CL; Irganox 1010; Irganox 1076; oxidation; hydroperoxide; radical; carbonyl; luminescence; chemiluminescence; imaging chemiluminescence; recycling; stabilization; polypropylene; degradation;

    Abstract : Oxidative degradation is a serious threat to long-term use and recyclability of polymers. Successful recycling of polymeric quality products requires characterization of the polymer material after reprocessing and use. READ MORE
