  2. 16. Stolen genes, a shortcut to success : Evolution of metabolic and detoxification capacities in Diplomonads

    Author : Alejandro Jimenez-Gonzalez; Jan Andersson; Thomas A. Richards; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Diplomonads; Parasitism; Evolutionary Genomics; Metabolism; Lateral Gene Transfer;

    Abstract : Parasites do not represent a single evolutionary lineage meaning that they have evolved several times. The changes that parasites have undergone to adapt to such a lifestyle are not entirely understood. READ MORE

  4. 17. Sulphur-Utilizing Microorganisms in Biotechnological Applications - Rubber Recycling and Vanadium Reduction

    Author : Katarina Bredberg; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pyrococcus furiosus; Acidithiobacillus; microbial vanadium reduction; microbial detoxification; rubber recycling; devulcanization; Biotechnological desulphurization; waste rubber materials; Biotechnology; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : Biotechnological processes offer environmentally friendly and sometimes cost-effective alternatives to traditional chemical and mechanical methods. It is important to take advantages of the opportunities these processes provide to fulfil the demands and expectations of a future environmentally sustainable society. READ MORE

  5. 18. Chemical mixtures and interactions with detoxification mechanisms and biomarker responses in fish

    Author : Johanna Gräns; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fish; AhR; CYP1A; PXR; Chemical mixtures; Chemical interaction; Biomarker;

    Abstract : Several classes of anthropogenic chemicals are present as mixtures in the aquatic environment. However, information of how wildlife species, including fish, are affected by exposures to chemical mixtures is limited. READ MORE

  6. 19. Pyrolysis and Detoxification of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) for Feedstock Recycling

    Author : Panagiotis Evangelopoulos; Weihong Yang; Efthymios Kantarelis; Tobias Richards; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pyrolysis; WEEE; solvent extraction; brominated flame retardants; Tetrabromobisphenol A; Auger reactor; Πυρόλυση; ΑΗΗΕ; εκχύλιση με διαλύτη; βρωμιωμένα επιβραδυντικά φλόγας; Τετραβρωμοδιφαινόλη Α; Pyrolys; WEEE; lösningsmedelsextraktion; bromerade flamskyddsmedel; tetrabrombisfenol A; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : The trends in waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) generation shows that their volume constantly increases, while the current waste management technologies have proven to be insufficient in order to meet the strict criteria and the new legislations of the European Union. Pyrolysis and thermal treatment in general could be a valuable solution for closing the loop of materials and could contribute to the energy demands of modern society. READ MORE

  7. 20. Biorefining of lignocellulose : Detoxification of inhibitory hydrolysates and potential utilization of residual streams for production of enzymes

    Author : Adnan Cavka; Leif J. Jönsson; John N. Saddler; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable resource that can be utilized for the production of biofuels, chemicals, and bio-based materials. Biochemical conversion of lignocellulose to advanced biofuels, such as cellulosic ethanol, is generally performed through microbial fermentation of sugars generated by thermochemical pretreatment of the biomass followed by an enzymatic hydrolysis of the cellulose.
