  2. 21. Hydrogen, an Energy Carrier of the Future

    Author : Christian Hulteberg; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical technology and engineering; Catalysts; Aerosols; Gasification; Hydrogen; Systems; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi;

    Abstract : The climate is changing, something that many scientists correlate to increased emissions of greenhouse gases. The effluent that is considered to have the highest impact on global warming is carbon dioxide, when effect and quantity are taken into account. READ MORE

  4. 22. Transmission of Infectious Bioaerosols : Sources, transport and prevention strategies for airborne viruses and bacteria

    Author : Malin Alsved; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bioaerosol; infectious disease; Norovirus; Airborne bacteria; aerosols;

    Abstract : Infectious diseases that can be transmitted via air often spread rapidly, sometimes causing large epidemic and pandemic outbreaks. As an increasing number of people live in crowded urban environments, and with frequent and long-distance traveling across the world, infectious diseases can spread even faster. READ MORE

  5. 23. Particulate and gaseous emissions from residential biomass combustion

    Author : Christoffer Boman; Anders Nordin; Ingwald Obernberger; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry; aerosols; air pollution; emissions; fuel pellets; residential biomass combustion; inorganic characterization; incomplete combustion; particulate matter; polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; trace elements; Kemi; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Biomass is considered to be a sustainable energy source with significant potentials for replacing electricity and fossil fuels, not at least in the residential sector. However, present wood combustion is a major source of ambient concentrations of hydrocarbons (e.g. READ MORE

  6. 24. Aerosol–cloud interactions in a warming Arctic

    Author : Linn Karlsson; Paul Zieger; Radovan Krejci; Annica M. L. Ekman; Birgit Wehner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerosols; clouds; aerosol-cloud interactions; Arctic; climate; field studies; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Atmospheric aerosol particles are small liquid or solid particles suspended in the air. They are present in the atmosphere all around us and affect the planetary energy balance by scattering and absorbing radiation and by interacting with clouds. In model projections of future climate, aerosol–cloud interactions contribute a lot of uncertainty. READ MORE

  7. 25. The variability in Salix BVOC emissions and possible consequences for managed SRC plantations

    Author : Tomas Karlsson; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Salix; BVOCs; varieties; age; branch chamber; leaf chambe; GC-MS; aerosols; Salix; BVOCs; varieties; age; branch chamber; leaf chamber; GC-MS; aerosols;

    Abstract : Willow (Salix spp.) trees have been used commercially since the 1980s to produce renewable energy. Some benefits with these trees are that they can clean soil from heavy metals, reduce the risk of nutrient leakage and eutrophication. READ MORE
