  1. 1. Characterisation of green-glued wood adhesive bonds

    Author : Magdalena Sterley; Erik Serrano; Hans Petersson; Klaus Richter; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; green gluing; finger jointing; durability; shear strength; wood failure percentage; fracture energy; tensile strength; PUR adhesive; Byggteknik; Civil engineering;

    Abstract : The gluing of unseasoned wood, called green gluing, is a relatively new sawmill process, implying a radically changed order of material flow in the production of value-added wood-based products. It facilitates the enhancement of raw material recovery and value yield by integrating defect elimination and gluing already before kiln drying. READ MORE

  2. 2. Climate Finance and the Point of Green Bonds

    Author : Kristina Forsbacka; Malou Larsson Klevhill; Stefan Lindskog; Soili Nysten-Haarala; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Law; Rättsvetenskap;

    Abstract : The emergence of green bonds in 2008 has been perceived as an important means to move towards green and sustainable investments, and the green and sustainable bond markets have also grown exponentially. The purpose of my thesis is to analyse the green bond instrument and the role that it plays at climate finance. READ MORE

  3. 3. Treatment of Textile Wastewater by Combining Biological Processes and Advanced Oxidation

    Author : Marisa Punzi; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Azo dye; textile wastewater; biological treatment; biofilm; microbial community; DGGE; green algae; photo-Fenton; ozone; toxicity; mutagenicity; LCA; cost analysis;

    Abstract : Treatment of textile wastewater is challenging because the water contains toxic compounds that have low biodegradability. Dyes, detergents, surfactants, biocides and more are used to improve the textile process and to make the clothes resistant to physical, chemical and biological agents. READ MORE

  4. 4. Structure-property investigation of ZnSb, ZnAs, and SiB3 : - binary semiconductors with electron poor framework structures

    Author : Daniel Eklöf; Ulrich Häussermann; Oliver Orckler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thermoelectric; Waste heat harvesting; Semiconductor; X-ray powder diffraction; SEM; Electron poor framework; EPFS; Green house effect; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : In today’s society, where energy conservation and green energy are buzz words, new scientific discoveries in green energy harvesting is key. This work focuses on materials capable of recycling low value thermal energy. READ MORE

  5. 5. Fundamental Aspects of Lignin Carbohydrate Complexes (LCC) : Mechanisms, Recalcitrance and Material concepts

    Author : Nicola Giummarella; Martin Lawoko; Gunnar Henriksson; Arthur J. Ragauskas; KTH; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Lignin Carbohydrates Complexes; Phenyl Glycosides; Benzyl Ethers; Benzyl and γ-esters; Universal Mild Quantitative fractionation; LCC mechanism formation; Extracellular lignin; Dehydogenation polymer; Autohydrolysis; Recalcitrance; Acetylation role; HSQC; HMBC; HSQC-TOCSY; 13C; 31P NMR; Thioacidolysis-GC; SEC; Green; Biomimetic; One-pot-lignin functionalization; Lignin platform material.; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Covalent bonds between lignin and carbohydrates, forming a matrix referred to as lignin carbohydrate complexes (LCC), remain one of the most controversial topics in wood chemistry. A key issue is whether they are formed during chemical and mechanical pretreatments of the compact wood structure or actually present in wood prior to isolation. READ MORE
