2. 1. Purchasing Power and Purchasing Strategies - Insights From the Humanitarian Sector

   Author : Ala Pazirandeh; Teknisk logistik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Humanitarian logistics; Purchainsg; Resource dependency theory; Buyer-supplier power;

   Abstract : In this dissertation, we discuss how buyers practice purchasing strategies in an asymmetric power situation favoring suppliers, and how their purchasing strategies practiced impact their purchasing power and buyer-supplier relationships. Organizations enter exchange relationships to access required resources not produced internally, and are exposed to uncertainty from not being able to fully control or predict flow of resources.

4. 2. Electrification in Process Industry - The Role of Process Integration and Future Energy Market Conditions

   Author : Holger Wiertzema; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrification; bottom-up assessment; energy-intensive process industries; oxo synthesis; oil refining; energy market scenarios; techno-economic assessment; chemical industry;

   Abstract : Electrification of industrial processes is a frequently discussed strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from energy-intensive process industries and is highlighted in many roadmap studies. Electricity is a versatile energy carrier that enables a broad variety of options in which existing process unit operations are replaced with electricity-driven alternatives. READ MORE

5. 3. Corporate and city GHG inventories : Impact on global CO2 emissionswhen considering electricity and CHP-based district heating

   Author : Lena Nordenstam; Björn Karlsson; Louise Ödlund; Danica Djuric Ilic; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : One initiative to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions involves developing standards for GHG inventories. Companies and cities (regions) can use GHG inventories to compile and report their GHG emissions. READ MORE

6. 4. Development of a multi-criteria hierarchical framework for maintenance performance measurement : concepts, issues and challenges

   Author : Aditya Parida; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

   Abstract : Effective management of maintenance process is critical for economic viability and a long term survival of many industries. In fact, an effective and efficient maintenance process is a must for most of industries to assure asset performance often measured in in terms of high asset availability, high level of safety and good quality, besides value addition.

7. 5. Microbial production of 3-hydroxypropionic acid and poly(3-hydroxypropionate): Investigation of Lactobacillus reuteri propanediol utilization pathway enzymes

   Author : Ramin Sabet Azad; Bioteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Platform chemicals; biopolymers; 3-hydroxypropionic acid; 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde; glycerol; poly 3-hydroxypropionate ; polyhydroxyalkanoates; Escherichia coli; Lactobacillus reuteri; propanediol utilization pathway; propionaldehyde dehydrogenase; biotransformation; cofactor regeneration; NADH oxidase;

   Abstract : Concerns regarding environmental issues such as greenhouse gas emissions and climate change have led to a shift within the research community and chemical and energy industry sectors for finding sustainable routes for producing fuels and chemicals from renewable resources, thereby minimizing our dependence on petroleum. The C3-chemical 3-hydroxypropionic acid has been identifed as a top candidate for the biobased chemical industry. READ MORE
