  2. 2. Laser-based diagnostics for investigating soot formation in combustion processes

    Author : MANU Mannazhi; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Soot formation; Laser diagnostics; Combustion; Laser-induced Incandescence; Fysicumarkivet A2022:Mannazhi;

    Abstract : In this work, laser-based diagnostic techniques were developed and applied to investigate soot formation in small-scale laboratory burners as well as in practical combustion devices. Quantitative 2D laser-induced incandescence (LII) measurements often use a cylindrical lens to shape the beam and illuminate the planar region of interest. READ MORE

  4. 4. Use and environmental impact of antifouling paints in the Baltic Sea

    Author : Maria Alexandra Bighiu; Ann-Kristin Eriksson-Wiklund; Bethanie Carney Almroth; Manu Soto; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; boats; antifouling paints; metals; XRF; in situ; caging; Theodoxus fluviatilis; toxicity; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Biocide-based antifouling (AF) paints are the most common method for preventing biofouling, i.e. the growth of algae, barnacles and other organisms on boat hulls. AF paints for leisure boats are predominantly based on copper (Cu) as the main biocide, with zinc (Zn) present as a pigment and stabilizer. READ MORE
