  1. 1. The Role of Kidney Oxygen Homeostasis for the Development of Kidney Disease

    Author : Carla Carvalho; Fredrik Palm; Peter Hansell; Malou Friederich; Jenny Nyström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oxygen; Kidney mitochondria; Hypoxia-inducible factors; Prolyl hydroxylase; von Hippel-Lindau; Diabetes; Aging; Kidney; Sodium; RAAS; Fysiologi; Physiology;

    Abstract : The relation between oxygen supply and demand determines tissue oxygen tension (PO2). When intrarenal tissue PO2 decreases, any compensatory increase in oxygen supply via increased renal blood flow is likely to increase glomerular filtration rate. READ MORE

  2. 2. Fate of Trace Elements in Thermochemical Conversion of Waste Fuels Using Oxygen Carriers

    Author : Ivana Stanicic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Oxygen Carrier Aided Combustion; X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy; Ash interaction; Chemical Looping Technologies; Thermodynamic Calculations; Waste; Oxygen Carriers; Ilmenite; Trace Elements;

    Abstract : The metals zinc, copper and lead are amongst the more abundant trace elements in waste fuels. The fate of these elements is important to study because they can affect the thermochemical conversion process and end up in ashes. READ MORE

  3. 3. Oxygen carrier aided combustion: Implementation of oxygen carriers to existing industrial settings

    Author : Angelica Gyllén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ilmenite; Oxygen carrier aided combustion; Fluidized-bed; Biomass;

    Abstract : Utilization of biomass and waste to produce heat and power is necessary for a sustainable future energy mix. Thermal conversion of biomass is considered to yield CO2 neutral emissions and the utilization of waste reduces its volumes in a world struggling to dispose of ever-increasing amounts. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Baltic Sea marine system - human impact and natural variations

    Author : Erik Gustafsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Baltic Sea; modelling; salinity; oxygen; nutrients; eutrophication; acidification; climate;

    Abstract : The environmental state of the Baltic Sea system is influenced by both natural and anthropogenic factors. Water exchange with the adjacent ocean and within the system depend on large-scale atmospheric circulation and properties of the straits separating the different sub-basins. READ MORE

  5. 5. 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
