  2. 1. Quantification of mineral weathering rates in sulfidic mine tailings under water-saturated conditions

    Author : Magdalena Gleisner; Docent Roger Herbert; Professor Emeritus Rolf Hallberg; Dr. Magnus Land; Professor Patrick Crill; Mats Åström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mine tailings; pyrite; sulfides; weathering; oxygen availability; Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : Tailings are a fine-grained waste product produced during the metal recovery process. Tailings consist mostly of different silicates but also sulfides (e.g. pyrite), since 100 % metal recovery is not possible. READ MORE

  4. 2. Private Rivers : Politics of Renewable Energy and the Rise of Water Struggles in Turkey

    Author : Mine Islar; LUCSUS; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Renewable energy; neoliberal state; water rights; privatisation; Turkey; sustainability;

    Abstract : Private Rivers is a study of contested processes whereby use rights to water are privatised for electricity production. It engages with the issues of renewable energy solutions and the sustainability of run-of-river hydro projects in Turkey by investigating the connection between these policies and justice for rural populations, whose livelihood depends on the rivers.

  5. 3. Fractionation of Cu and Fe isotopes in metal-rich mine sites : biotic and abiotic processes

    Author : Nathalie Pérez Rodríguez; Magnus Land; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cu and Fe isotopes; fractionation; tailings; plants; phytoremediation; organic amendments; soil bacteria; Cu and Fe cycle; covellite; redox processes; Applied Geology; Tillämpad geologi;

    Abstract : After mineral exploitation the residual grinded and milled material, rich in sulphide minerals and heavy metals, is often left exposed to the atmospheric variables. This weathered mine waste material can lead to the formation of acid mine drainage (AMD) which has negative effects to the environment. READ MORE

  7. 5. Land Mine Detection using Dual-Band Electro-Optical Sensing

    Author : Magnus Lundberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; land mines; regularization; nuisance parameters; detection; infrared imaging; occlusion modeling; multi-spectral imaging; prior knowledge; Signalbehandling;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the detection of buried and partially occluded land mines using electro-optical sensing. According to the Red Cross approximately 10000 people are killed and another 30000 are injured each year in mine related accidents. READ MORE
