Jordbruksgrödor används huvudsakligen som livsmedel, men som en konsekvens av en strävan efter ett mer fossilfritt samhälle sker ett ständigt sökande efter andra användningsområden, i synnerhet för biprodukter inom livsmedelssektorn. En sådan biprodukt från sockerindustrin är melass. Melass består mestadels av socker men också av bl.a. andra organiska föreningar och salter, och har traditionellt aThis project aims to compare the effect of viscosity on flux for high viscosity liquids. The performance of two different viscous solutions was studied in a plate-and-frame membrane module. The solutions used were based on molasses, which is a liquid containing mainly low-molar mass components and konjac glucomannan (KGM) which is a substance with high molar mass. The change of the mass transport

In recent years, as Internet of Things (IoT) and machine learning technologies have advanced, there has been increasing interest in the study of energy-efficient and flexible architectures for embedded systems. To bridge the performance gap between microprocessors and memory systems, Near-Data Processing (NDP) was introduced. Although some works have implemented NDP, few of them utilize the microp

Energy renovations are an important measure for achieving the European Union’s target of climate neutrality by 2050. To meet the EU goal, Estonia needs to fully renovate 14 000 multi-family buildings by that time, affecting the indoor environment conditions of a large number of people. To gain knowledge for the upcoming renovations, the experience of the people living in the multi-family buildings

Denna uppsats ämnar att besvara frågan hur unga vuxna ser på identitetsskapande kring det vita snuset respektive tobakssnuset. Genom intervjuer och deltagande observationer som gjordes under våren 2023 framkom det hur klass- och genusprocesser skapades samtidigt som identiteten. Genom att bearbeta det insamlade materialet sammanvävt med teorier och tidigare forskning framkom det att snuset blir en

Levande organismer är mycket avancerade biokemiska system, där ett otal kemiska reaktioner sker hela tiden. I dessa reaktioner omvandlas molekyler (substrat), till en annan molekyl (produkt) under milda betingelser; med detta menas till exempel neutralt pH, atmosfärstryck och kroppstemperatur. Detta är möjligt på grund av biologiska katalysatorer, kallade enzymer, då dessa reaktioner utförs i det Metalloenzymes have the ability to enhance oxidation reactions within biological systems, which have spurred efforts to synthesize biomimetic FeII complexes. That being said, two N4Py-derivative ligands N-((6-(4-chlorophenyl)pyridine-2-yl)methyl)-1,1-di(pyridine-2-yl)-N-(pyridine-2-ylmethyl)methanamine (L1) and N,N-bis((6-(4-chlorophenyl)pyridin-2-yl)methyl)-1,1-di(pyridin-2-yl)methanamine (L2) we

This research explores how young audiences in Georgia perceive and engage with Russian Soft Power in the context of the media platform Alt-info. Alt-info is a privately-owned right-wing TV company and online media outlet founded in 2019 in Georgia. The study delves into the complex relationship between Russian Soft Power, the media landscape, and the perspectives of Georgia's youth. Using a c

Plants are exposed to harsh environments due to climate changes, which lead to reduction in productivity and yield of the crops. In order to promote stress tolerance in plants, several chemical, microbial and pulsed power methods are applied in agriculture. Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) is an alternative non-chemical and environmentally friendly technology that can be applied to promote the growth o

Malaria har över spannet av tusentals år påverkat miljontals människor och resulterade år 2021 i över 600 000 dödsfall, primärt på den afrikanska kontinenten. Symptom orsakas av 5 olika arter av parasitsläktet Plasmodium, som sprids mellan människor via myggor av släktet Anopheles. Efter en förökningsfas i levern invaderar Plasmodium röda blodceller och bryter ner hemoglobin i födovakuolen för attIntroduction: The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that malaria, the parasitic infection caused by Plasmodium spp., resulted in the deaths of 600,000 people in 2023, predominantly affecting the African region. Background: In an effort to combat the disease, scientists have turned to heavy metal complexes in search of novel antimalarials. With a rise of resistance against existing antipla

Arbetet söker besvara frågan: ger gällande rätt ett adekvat svar på det psykiska partnervåldets uppfattade allvar? Ur tillgänglig statistik framgår att psykiskt våld är den mest förekommande formen av partnervåld. Trots detta har det haft en perifer roll i debatt, lagstiftning och tillämpning tills nyligen. Frågan bygger på tesen att svensk straffrätt möter svårigheter i hantering av psykiskt paThis thesis seeks an answer to the question: does current criminal law adequately answer the perceived problem of psychological partner violence? Based on available statistics psychological violence is the most common form of partner violence, despite this its’ role in public debate, legislation and applied law has been peripheral until recently. The main question stems from the hypothesis that Sw

This thesis examines the role of political satire in the Bulgarian public sphere through the case of the satirical newspaper Pras Press. The bi-weekly publication is centered around political cartooning and reports on public affairs issues from pop culture to current events. It relies on online dissemination as its print editions have been, and continue to be, the object of censorship for the news

This research examines the factors contributing to the diminishing Muslim identity among young Hui Muslims in China, particularly those with higher education, and the tensions and conflicts arising from these identity changes. Through a historical survey of Hui Muslims and ethnographic fieldwork in Yinchuan City, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, the study identifies both internal and external factor

The present study explores how Danish-Iranian Women living in Copenhagen witness and take part in the connective Woman Life Freedom movement, online and from afar. It seeks to investigate their emotional engagement with Instagram, their political participation and their sense of belonging in this process. With a media studies perspective, the study works in the intersection between civic engagemen

In the long history of fan culture and audience studies, fans as media consumers have been the focus of research. However, as the other side of the coin, the anti-fan, has been relatively marginalised in the academic field. The public perception of "anti-fans" is still critical, and they are often labelled as "pathological, irrational, excessively emotional. This study aims to analy

This bachelor thesis aims to study the ethnic and socioeconomic deficiency in the current Swedish fashion industry. As Scandinavian fashion has grown nationally and globally the industry is now viewed more than ever. Sweden is today enriched by diversity and with this study we aim to investigate the lack of diversity within the Swedish fashion industry. More than ever, we see companies and magazin

Since around 2015 there has been a huge vinyl revival going on world wide. The group which is responsible for this resurgence is mainly gen- eration-z. When you ask someone of this generation what they associate with this format you will often hear the word “nostalgic”. This “nostalgic” revival comes, however, with consequences. The material vinyl record is made of is an highly unstable mater

The growing demand for network cameras to support real-time image processing and machine-learning applications has created a need for low-power solutions. Although technology scaling makes complex computations feasible, voltage scaling is limited, leading to higher power density and dark silicon problems. One potential solution is the use of Approximate Arithmetic Circuits (AACs). This effectively

Från Nya Zeeland så har en borrkärna från den största och yngsta vulkanen i Aucklands vulkaniska fält (Auckland volcanic field, AVF) extraherats för att undersöka vulkanfältets förflutna. Detta fält består till största delen av basalt och började bildas för ca 200 000 år sedan och består av ca 50 utdöda vulkaner. Den största av dessa vulkaner, Rangitoto utgör 41% av fältets vulkaniska material och
