    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sustainable sanitation; sand filter; phosphorus filter; package plant; cold climate; treatment process; system analysis; sustainability indicators; decentralization; centralization; historical development; on-site; resource recovery; source separation; source-separating systems; blackwater; urine; greywater; hållbarthetsanalys; små avlopp system; enskilda avlopp; markbädd; minireningsverk; kallt klimat; systemanalys; fosforfälla; fosforfilter; indikator; urin sortering; svartvatten; toalettvatten; gråvatten; BDT; VA-teknik; Urban Water Engineering;

    Abstract : Current socio-technical wastewater system paradigms are being challenged by emerging global issues such as climate change, environmental degradation and scarcity of resources. Thus, exploration of innovative new urban water management solutions is required that enable closure of resource loops. READ MORE

  2. 2. Lake Hydrodynamics and Pollution Transport under Climate Change : The Case of Lake Victoria

    Author : Seema Paul; Henrik Ernstson; Zahra Kalantari; Abhijit Mukherjee; KTH; []

    Abstract : A very small part of the total earth’s water is freshwater (only 2.5 %). Unfortunately, due to climate change and pervasive manmade activities, surface freshwater quality in many places of the world has become degraded. READ MORE

  3. 3. Nonpoint source water pollution management : Monitoring, assessment and wetland treatment

    Author : Lorin Reinelt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Abstract : The management of nonpoint (diffuse) sources of-water pollution has received increased attention during the past decade. New techniques that aid in the identification and assessment of these diffuse sources can increase the chances for success of nonpoint source control efforts. READ MORE

  4. 4. Water-based Tape Casting of Ceramics and Fabrication of Ceramic Laminates

    Author : Annika Kristoffersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; water-based tape casting; latex binders; high solids loading; silicon carbide; colloidal stability; polyelectrolyte dispersants; alumina; ceramic laminates; rheology;

    Abstract : The objective of the work presented in this dissertation has been twofold: to develop a water-based system for tape casting and to build laminar structures from the tapes. A set of requirements on the binder was specified and latexes were identified as suitable for water-based tape casting, mainly owing to their low viscosity and high polymeric content. READ MORE

  5. 5. Early diagnosis, treatment, and Health-Related Quality of Life in women with mild Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema

    Author : Katarina Blom; Rehabilitering och hållbar hälsa; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lymphedema; breast cancer; compression garment; Diagnosis; treatment; health-related quality of life;

    Abstract : Background: Early diagnosis and treatment of Breast Cancer-RelatedLymphedema (BCRL) are important to prevent lymphedema progress and impacton Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL). The treatment includes self-care andtreatment with compression garment. In mild BCRL, the lymphedema can be local, without an increase in arm volume. READ MORE
