2. 1. Long-term Properties of Sustainable Polymeric Materials : Mechanical Recycling and Use of Renewable Resources

   Author : Emma Strömberg; Sigbritt Karlsson; Amparo Ribes-Greus; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sustainable materials; mechanical recycling; polyolefin; reprocessing; accelerated ageing; chromatography; biofilm; microenvironment chamber; environmental degradation; biocomposite; nanocomposite; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

   Abstract : New strategies for management of the accumulating amounts of plastic waste are required, to achieve a sustainable development in terms of material production and use. After service life, the materials should be recovered and recycled efficiently to provide a valuable resource for future applications. READ MORE

4. 2. Continuity of care after hospitalization due to cardiac conditions : Patients' perceptions, validity and reliability of a measure, and associations with outcomes

   Author : Emma Säfström; Anna Strömberg; Tiny Jaarsma; Maria Liljeroos; Lena Nordgren; Anna Forsberg; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiac disease; Conceptual models of nursing; Continuity of care; Discharge planning; Perceived control; Psychometrics; Quality of care; Quality of life; Self-care; Validation studies;

   Abstract : Background: Cardiac conditions are a common cause of hospitalization worldwide. The need for healthcare continues after hospital discharge and most commonly includes follow-up within primary healthcare centers or specialized outpatient cardiology clinics. READ MORE

5. 3. Sustainable Aluminum and Iron Production

   Author : Reza Beheshti; Emma Strömberg; Jafar Safarian; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sustainability; Optimization; Black Dross; Salt removal; Steel flux agent; Waste processing; Greenhouse gases; Direct reduction; COMSOL Multiphysics®; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : Aluminium recycling requires 95% less energy than primary production with no loss of quality. The Black Dross (BD) produced during secondary aluminium production contains high amounts of water-soluble compounds, therefore it is considered as a toxic waste. READ MORE

6. 4. Water purification using polyelectrolyte modified cellulose fibers and filters to adsorb bacteria

   Author : Anna Ottenhall; Monica Ek; Joydeep Dutta; Emma Strömberg; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bacterial adsorption; cellulose filter; Layer-by-Layer; water treatment; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

   Abstract : Clean water is necessary for human survival and there is a need for development of cheap and easy water purification techniques to use in emergency situations when there is no access to safe drinking water. Bacteria contaminated water can cause lethal diarrheal diseases and is globally the second most common cause of death among children less than five years of age. READ MORE

7. 5. Surface reactivity, stability, and mobility of metal nanoparticles in aqueous solutions : Influence of natural organic matter and implications on particle dispersion preparation

   Author : Sulena Pradhan; Inger Odnevall Wallinder; Jonas Hedberg; Eva Blomberg; Emma Strömberg; Kerstin Forsberg; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanoparticles; freshwater; di-hydroxybenzoic acid; humic acid; copper; aluminium; manganese; dissolution; agglomeration; stability; complexation; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : The growing development of nanotechnology has resulted in an increased use of nanoparticles (NPs) in various applications ranging from medicine, military, to daily consumer products. There is a concern that NPs can be dispersed into the environment in various ways, for example to air and water during manufacture, use, incineration or recycling of products and thus pose a risk to health and the environment.
