  1. 1. Energy and Environmental Factors in Food and Beverage Production Systems : An Analysis of Tomatoes, Whisky, and Beer

    Author : Daniel Danevad; Karl Hillman; Ola Eriksson; Hanna Tuomisto; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; environmental systems analysis; waste management; import; local resources; food production; beverage production; circularity; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : Given the anticipated global population of approximately 10 billion by 2050, the task of ensuring adequate sustenance for all within the constraints of Earth's limited resources presents a significant challenge. The production of food and beverages demands considerable energy investment, as well as other essential resources such as water and nutrients. READ MORE

  4. 4. Study of Paper Dry Strength Additives on Cellulose Fibres

    Author : Mengxiao Zhao; Torbjörn Pettersson; Lars Wågberg; Leif Robertsén; Tekla Tammelin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Paper dry strength additives; adsorption of polymer; polyelectrolyte; birch fibres; model cellulose surface; cellulose beads; filaments; light-weight paper board; polyacrylamide; cationic starch; Torrstyrkekemikalier; polymeradsorption; polyelektrolyter; cellulosafibrer; modellcellulosaytor; cellulosakulor; lättviktsliner; polyakrylamid; katjonstärkelse; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Paper packaging is commonly found in the form of paper and cardboard boxes, but recently paper packing is being used in food packaging, trays, beverage packaging and even paper straws, among others. Paper strength additives have been developed to increase the efficiency of the joint strength and the joint areas and potentially maintain bulk in paper products. READ MORE

  5. 5. Design and development of electrochemical sensors with application in bioanalysis

    Author : Kinga Zor; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bioanalysis; electrochemistry; sensor; biosensor; miniaturization; real sample; immunoassay; μTAS;

    Abstract : There is a continuous search for reliable, robust, easy to use, portable and cost effective analytical tools with applications in food industry, biomedicine, environmental monitoring and homeland security. The main focus of this thesis is the development of electrochemical (bio)sensors and bioanalysis systems (to be applied in two major fields of interest: food & beverage industry and biomedical research) for monitoring key analytes in complex matrices, such as: meat samples, fermentation broths, and cell culture media.
