  1. 16. Compaction and thaw deformation of frozen soil : permeability and structural effects due to freezing and thawing

    Author : Peter Viklander; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geoteknik; Soil Mechanics;

    Abstract : This thesis is the result of the two projects:"Deformations in winter compacted soils" and "Permeability changes in a fine-grained till due to freeze/thaw". The aim of the first project was to study whether it is possible to compact frozen soils, in road embankments etc. READ MORE

  2. 17. Use of chemical denitrification for nitrogen removal from landfill leachates

    Author : Aleksandra Nikolic; KTH; []
    Keywords : Chemical denitrification; conductivity; evaporation drying; freezing thawing; leachate; nitrogen removal;

    Abstract : Landfill leachate usually has a high concentration ofammonium nitrogen and heavy metals, but too low alkalinitycontent for full biological nitrification, as well as a too lowconcentration of biologically degradable organic carbon forbiological denitrification, and at the same time very variablecomposition (quantity and quality) with time. These factorsresult in serious problems for treating leachate with existingsystems. READ MORE

  3. 18. Low Portland cement content concretes at freezing and subfreezing temperatures

    Author : Ankit Kothari; Andrzej Cwirzen; Hans Hedlund; Karin Habermehl-Cwirzen; Aleksandra Radlinska; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggmaterial; Building Materials;

    Abstract : Concrete is the most used building material. With the increasing growth of industries and urbanization globally; the demand for concrete is increasing significantly. Ordinary Portland Cement (PC) is the binder used to produce typical concrete. Unfortunately, for every ton of manufactured cement about 0. READ MORE

  4. 19. Organization of Nanoparticles in Solution-A TEM Study

    Author : Olivier Balmes; Lunds universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Materiallära; materialteknik; Material technology; organisation; plunge freezing; TEM; nanoparticle; transmission electron microscopy;

    Abstract : A new approach to the study of nanoparticle systems has been introduced. Nanoparticle systems in aqueous and organic solutions have been synthesized and studied by transmission electron microscopy. These systems include nanoparticles of gold, silver, palladium, ruthenium, and platinum which have been stabilized using various ligands. READ MORE

  5. 20. Adsorption, aggregation and phase separation in colloidal systems

    Author : Jing Dai; Istvan Furo; Peter Griffiths; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NMR; chemical shift; spin relaxation; self-diffusion; micelle; core freezing; segregation; solubilization; release; adsorption; binding; surfactant; carbon nanotube; block copolymer; dispersion; competitive adsorption; nanocomposite; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The thesis presents work regarding amphiphilic molecules associated in aqueous solution or at the liquid/solid interface. Two main topics are included: the temperature-dependent behavior of micelles and the adsorption of dispersants on carbon nanotube (CNT) surfaces. READ MORE
