Aggregation and Toxicity of Amine-functionalized Polystyrene Nanoparticles

Samhällets plastproduktion och –konsumtion har ökat markant sedan 1960-talet, vilket även har resulterat i den korrelerade ökade närvaron av plast i bland annat vattenmiljöer. Dagligen kommer information om de problem plasten orsakar, då exempelvis valar och sälar trasslar in sig i övergivna fisknät eller genom förtäring av plaster till sist dör av svält och undernäring. Genom olika biotiska och aThe use and production of polymeric plastic products have increased immensely since the 1960s, and with it, the correlated presence of plastics in the aquatic environment. Through different biotic and abiotic processes, the plastics will be degraded to smaller pieces, eventually down to the micro- and nanoscale as well. Previously known about these nanoparticles is their ability to enter cells dep

I och med borttagandet av denna regel påverkas cirka 5000 privatpersoner av en högre utgift för sitt boende. Att en bostadsrättsförening klassas som ett oäkta bostadsföretag beror ofta på att de har en stor andel lokalUp until recently, members of co-operative housing associations with a high income deriving from non-housing activities could benefit from a tax exemption rule. This rule was last applied in 2015 and meant that a deduction could be made for the taxable housing benefit.

Den förnybara framtiden - en rättsekonomisk analys av det svenska elcertifikatsystemet

För att uppnå nationella klimat- och miljömål måste den förnybara elproduktionen i Sverige öka inom de närmaste decennierna. Det svenska elcertifikatsystemet är ett marknadsbaserat finansiellt stödsystem med målet att skapa incitament till en ökad förnybar elproduktion.
