  1. 1. Mercury immobilization : a requirement for permanent disposal of mercury waste in Sweden

    Author : Margareta Svensson; Bert Allard; Anders Düker; Björn Öhlander; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; mercury; mercury sulphide; cinnabar; stabilization; solidification; encapsulation; monolith leaching; solubility; mercury speciation; diffusion; apparent diffusion coefficient; Chemistry; Kemi; Enviromental Science; Miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : The Swedish Government states that mercury in the Swedish industry and private use shall be collected and waste containing more than 1% of mercury shall be conditioned for permanent storage in proposed groundwater-saturated repository in deep bedrock. The owners of mercury waste in Sweden are responsible for finding ways to the conversion of the mercury waste to insoluble forms. READ MORE

  2. 2. Enzyme immobilization in mesoporous silica

    Author : Hanna Gustafsson; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pH probe; Mesoporous silica; particle morphology; immobilization; pore size; quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring; enzyme; biocatalysis;

    Abstract : Enzymes are highly effective and versatile biological catalysts, with a high chemo-, stereo- and regioselectivity while operating under mild conditions, such as physiological temperature and pH and atmospheric pressure. Therefore, enzymes are a sustainable alternative to conventional catalysts in organic synthesis processes. READ MORE

  3. 3. Enzyme Immobilization in Mesoporous Silica

    Author : Hanna Gustafsson; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; immobilization; lipase; Mesoporous; particle morphology; feruloyl esterase; enzyme; encapsulation; silica; pore size; trypsin;

    Abstract : Catalysts are widely used in many industries for production of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, fuels and energy. There is a need for more sustainable production processes, with reduced energy and raw material consumption together with a reduction in waste and toxic by-products. READ MORE

  4. 4. Near field immobilization of selenium oxyanions

    Author : Anders Puranen; Mats Jonsson; Christophe Jegou; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Se-79; Selenium; Immobilization; Redox; Iron; Corrosion; Palladium; Catalyst; Spent Nuclear Fuel; Repository; Nuclear chemistry; Kärnkemi;

    Abstract : The topic of this doctoral thesis is the potential near field immobilization of the radionuclide 79Se after intrusion of groundwater into a spent nuclear fuel canister in a repository. 79Se is a non naturally occurring long lived selenium isotope formed as a result of fission in nuclear fuel.

  5. 5. Microbial mobilization and immobilization of soil nitrogen

    Author : Per Bengtson; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; Ekologi; growth rate; microbial activity; respiration; assimilation; immobilization; Nitrogen; mineralization;

    Abstract : Microorganisms in forest ecosystems normally recycle nitrogen (N), such that gaseous losses and leaching are limited. Mobilization of organic N, including microbial N, and immobilization of inorganic N, especially NH4+, are the quantitatively most important N transformation processes. Various factors influence their rates, e.g. READ MORE
