  1. 1. Specific Precipitation of Biomolecules Using Synthetic Polymers

    Author : Per-Olof Wahlund; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; Polymerteknik; RNA; plasmid DNA; DNA; polyelectrolyte complexes; synthetic polymers; precipitation; affinity precipotation; Bioteknik; Polymer technology; biopolymers;

    Abstract : Purification is a very important stage in biotechnological processes. The traditionally used precipitation techniques are generally nonspecific and thus one or more chromatographic steps are normally required. There is thus a need for new approaches to improve existing techniques. READ MORE

  2. 2. Environmental and health hazards of chemicals in plastic polymers and products

    Abstract : Plastics are extremely diverse in terms of chemical composition, properties and possible applications, and are widely distributed in the society and the environment. In the last 15 years the global annual production has doubled, reaching 245 million tons in 2008. READ MORE

  3. 3. Functionalization of Synthetic Polymers for Membrane Bioreactors

    Author : Hamidreza Barghi; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bioreactor; Functionalization; Hydrophilic; Membrane; Polyamide 46; Synthetic polymer; Resursåtervinning; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

    Abstract : Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) show great promise for productivity improvement and energy conservation in conventional bioprocesses for wastewater reclamation. In order to attain high productivity in a bioprocess, it is crucial to retain the microorganisms in the bioreactors by preventing wash out. READ MORE

    Abstract : Organic electrode materials represent an intriguing alternative to their inorganic counterparts due to their sustainable and environmental-friendly properties. Their plastic character allows for the realization of light-weight, versatile and disposable devices for energy storage. READ MORE

  5. 5. Functional Degradable Polymers : from the monomeric point of view

    Author : Peter Olsén; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Karin Docent; Andrew Dove; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Degradable polymers is key, within the future vison, of creating a sustainable society were all aspects, cradle to grave, can be realized in a sustainable way. It is imperative to consider, how the monomer is formed, its polymerization, the material properties created and the final degradation behavior. READ MORE
