6. Nutrient balance and salinity stress in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
Abstract : Earth’s primary production depends to a considerable extent on the mycorrhizal symbiosis, since mycorrhizal fungi supply their host plant with important mineral nutrients. I examined the influence of different nutrient regimes on the fungal partner in the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis. READ MORE

7. Unlocking Sustainability in Wastewater Denitrification through Waste-Derived Volatile Fatty Acids
Abstract : Carbon sources play a critical role in biological nitrogen removal during wastewater treatment, where strict total nitrogen limits on effluent discharge apply. Organic carbon sources serve as electron donors in the denitrification for heterotrophic denitrifiers. READ MORE

8. Corrosion protection and nanomechanical properties of waterborne acrylate-based coating with and without nanocellulose on carbon steel
Abstract : Corrosion protection is commonly achieved by applying a thin polymer coating on metal surfaces. In this doctoral thesis, a waterborne hydroxyacrylate-melamine copolymer coating was used for this purpose. The first step was to find the optimal curing conditions. READ MORE

9. Microbial nitrate removal from mining waters
Abstract : Mining activities cause high levels of nitrogen in the process water. The nitrogen originates from the blasting procedure, where undetonated explosives in the form of ammonium nitrate dissolve in the water. Part of the water is discharged to receiving water bodies where it may cause environmental problems. READ MORE

10. Comparing effects of endogenous and anthropogenic nitrogen supply on ectomycorrhizal fungi
Abstract : Boreal forests are characterized by strong nutrient limitation and nitrogen is partic-ularly scarce. Ectomycorrhizal fungi acquire nitrogen from the soil in return for car-bon from their tree host and are, thus, pivotal mediators of carbon and nitrogen cy-cling. READ MORE
