2. 1. Alkali-containing aerosol particles-release during biomass combustion and ambient air concentrations

   Author : Borka Kovacevik; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerosol; alkali metal; sodium; potassium; pyrolysis; combustion; biomass burning.;

   Abstract : Air pollution in the form of particles has considerable influence on human health and climate. Atmospheric aerosol particles arise from direct emissions of particles and from the conversion of certain gases to particles in the atmosphere. READ MORE

4. 2. Alkali Metal Stripping and Plating in Liquid Electrolytes

   Author : Josef Rizell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Highly Concentrated Electrolytes; Stripping; Lithium; Potassium; Nucleation; Plating; Metal anodes;

   Abstract : Batteries have relatively modest energy densities compared to fossil fuels. In the efforts to make battery-driven transport solutions and technologies competitive with gasoline-powered alternatives, it is important to develop batteries with higher energy densities. READ MORE

5. 3. Cisplatin-resistance and cell death in malignant pleural mesothelioma cells

   Author : Veronica Janson; Kjell Grankvist; Roger Henriksson; Parviz Behnam-Motlagh; Anders Johansson; Boris Zhivotovsky; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; apoptosis; BH3-only proteins; caspase; cell morphology; potassium transport; protein kinase B PKB Akt ; signalling pathways; time; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi;

   Abstract : Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive, treatment-resistant tumour. Cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II)) is the best single-agent chemotherapy for MPM, but platinum-based combination therapies give the best overall response rates. However, cisplatin use is limited by resistance and severe side effects. READ MORE

6. 4. The Survey of Ash Agglomeration Phenomena in a Commercial Circulating Fluidised Bed (CFB)

   Author : Ann Charlotte Tranvik; Mehri Sanati; Britt-Marie Steenari; Växjö universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFB; combustion; biomass; agglomeration; ash; silicate; potassium; bed material; layer; deposition; Thermal energy engineering; Termisk energiteknik;

   Abstract : Renewable energy sources will act an important roll in the development of sustainability in the future in order to protect environment and ecological cycle.Amongst the Kyoto protocol conclusions there is an agreements for the EU a reduction of 8 % of greenhouse gas emissions (corresponding of around 6 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents ) between 2008-2012 (compared to 1990 level).

7. 5. Water and alkali salts in the hydrating and hardened green cement-based materials: Hydration process, moisture content and transport

   Author : Liming Huang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Formation factor; Electrical conductivity; Moisture transport; Pore structure; Sustainable cement-based materials; Hydration; Alkali salts; Supplementary cementitious materials;

   Abstract : Reducing CO2 emissions in the production of cementitious binder is the most effective way to decrease the environmental impact of the construction industry, so a large amount of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) has been used in the green concrete. Both the SCMs and alkali salts in binders influence the hydration process and the structure in hardened cement-based materials. READ MORE
