  2. 11. Collision- and photon-induced dynamics of complex molecular ions in the gas phase

    Author : Linda Giacomozzi; Henning Zettergren; Jason Greenwood; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PAHs; Porphyrins; Adenine; Flavins; Biomolecules; Collisions; Experiments; Reactions; Non-Statistical Fragmentation; Molecular Dynamics; Photon-Induced Fragmentation; Luminescence; Photoisomerization; Proton Transfer; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In this thesis, I report experiments probing collision- and photon-induced molecular dynamics in the gas phase. Excited molecules formed in such interactions may relax by emitting electrons or photons, isomerization or fragmentation. READ MORE

  4. 12. Biological Treatment of Oily Sludge and Sediments

    Author : Mait Kriipsalu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : bioremediation; refinery; aerobic biotreatment; flocculation-flotation unit FFU ; petroleum hydrocarbons; oily sludge; static biopile; PAHs; sediments;

    Abstract : AbstractOily sludge, generated in refineries or in other industrial sectors, and oil-containing sediments, removed from water bodies during remediation works, pose an environmental problem. A common feature between both is their high water content, and variable content of organic and inorganic contaminants, which complicates their treatment. READ MORE

  5. 13. Cookstoves, Candles, and Phthalates – Real Time Physicochemical Characterization and Human Exposure to Indoor Aerosols

    Author : Christina Andersen; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aerosol particles; OA; BC; cookstoves; candle emissions; phthalates; human exposure; PAHs;

    Abstract : Exposure to air pollution is associated with adverse health effects in humans, with special concern for exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5). The physicochemical properties of aerosols impact the health effects. READ MORE

  6. 14. Use and Development of Diffusive Samplers to Analyse the Fate of Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds, Polychlorinated Biphenyls and Pharmaceuticals in Wastewater Treatment Processes

    Author : Lijana Augulyte; Patrik L. Andersson; Anna Ledin; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioavailable; biologically activated carbon; PRCs; sampling rate; SPMD; sorption; wastewater treatment; diffusive passive samplers; human pharmaceuticals; municipal sewage treatment plant; organic micropollutants; polycyclic aromatic compounds; PAHs; PCBs; POCIS; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Abstract : The efficiency of wastewater treatment systems is commonly measured by the reductions of parameters such as biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total suspended solids (TSS) and/or reductions in levels of selected macro compounds (e.g. long-chained hydrocarbons and inorganic compounds).

  7. 15. Molecular Hole Punching : Impulse Driven Reactions in Molecules and Molecular Clusters

    Author : Michael Gatchell; Henning Zettergren; Henrik Cederquist; Henning Schmidt; Joachim Burgdörfer; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PAHs; Fullernes; Reactions; Clusters; Interstellar Medium; Fragmentation; Non-Statistical Fragmentation; Collisions; Experiments; Molecular Dynamics; Density Functional Theory; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : When molecules are excited by photons or energetic particles, they will cool through the emission of photons, electrons, or by fragmenting. Such processes are often thermal as they occur after the excitation energy has been redistributed across all degrees-of-freedom in the system. READ MORE
