The work presented here aims at producing hydrogen for proton-exchange fuel-cell applications from hydrocarbons. This thesis describes an integrated catalytic converter comprising a steam-reforming reactor (heat of reaction supplied by catalytic combustion), a water-gas shift reactor and a preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide reactor, and the work performed on the fuel processing catalysts th
Popular Abstract in Swedish Fotosyntesen är nödvändig för vårt liv på jordklotet. Fotosyntes utförs huvudsakligen av gröna växter och dessutom av vissa bakterier. Dessa organismer absorberar energin i solljuset och omvandlar den till kemisk energi i form av till exempel kolhydrater och fett som vi människor och djur sedan kan förbränna och utvinna energi ifrån. Fotosyntesen utförs av ett flertal pPSII catalyses the light-induced water splitting process which leads to electron transfer through the thylakoid membrane and formation of energy rich molecules. Several redox components including a Mn4Ca, an amino acid residueYZ, two special Chl molecules P680, two Pheo and two quinone molecules participate in this process. Another component of PSII which interacts magnetically with Mn4Ca is D2-Ty
The current form-giving activity in industrial design is characterized by explorations that depend on the individual capability to mentally manipulate a solution space from which to select and express the intended result. Designers often rely on artistic experimentation, aesthetic inspiration, or product specifications. These approaches often lead to satisfactory results, but they could be augment
Popular science summary: Is RpS6 activation important for leukemia cell progression? Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is the most common acute blood cancer in adults. It is characterized by a rapid increase of leukemic cells in the bone marrow, compromising the development of new blood cells. Despite improvement in treatments and advancements in supportive care, the overall 5-years survival of AML i
Popular science summary: New approaches for treating lakes with ammonia pollution Extract of Yucca shidigera, a desert plant, has been used in aquaculture to control ammonia in the water. Microalgae has been proved effective in removing ammonia and phosphorous from wastewater of agriculture and aquaculture. Therefore, it is possible that they could remove ammonia from lakes. Hence, several fish t

Background: Many blood group antigens are carried by red cell surface proteins, thefunctions of which are not yet fully characterized or in some cases completelyunknown. By investigating red cells with naturally-occurring blood group variants,much has been learnt about the underlying molecules. However, interindividualvariation affecting other molecules than the one(s) of interest may confound oro
The use of Penman-Monteith (PM) equation in thermal remote sensing based surface energy balance modeling is not prevalent due to the unavailability of any direct method to integrate thermal data into the PM equation and due to the lack of physical models expressing the surface (or stomatal) and boundary layer conductances (g(S) and g(B)) as a function of surface temperature. Here we demonstrate a
In order to simplify and/or improve determination of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) the clearances of iohexol, 51Cr-EDTA and endogenous creatinine were simultaneously determined with different techniques in 21 anesthetized landrace pigs. Their GFR had been reduced to about 1/3 or less of normal GFR. After an intravenous bolus of the GFR markers, their plasma concentration curves were followed fo
The transfer of 210Po and 210Pb between various compartments in the terrestrial environment has been analysed by using various published data. The average activity concentration of 210Po in soil is 61 ± 14 Bq.kg-1 d.w. with a median (50%) value of 44 Bq.kg-1 d.w. Ground water concentrations of 210Po in drilled wells might be as high as 6.5 Bq/l. But in regular drinking water it is just about 3-5
Klimatet har varit relativt stabilt under den nuvarande interglaciala epoken (Holocen) som inleddes för ungefär 11 700 år sedan. Genom klimatrekonstruktioner från olika geologiska arkiv såsom iskärnor, sjösediment och torvmossar har det ändå påvisats att snabba förändringar i klimatet har inträffat under denna epok. En sådan tidsperiod inträffade för omkring 2800 år sedan och den är intressant ur Geological archives have shown periods of abrupt climate change in the relatively stable Holocene epoch (last ca. 11 700 years). One of these periods was around 2800 cal BP. Several records, mainly from Europe, reveal a shift towards wetter, cooler and windier conditions. There are, however, indications for a global extent of the climate change. The climate change coincides with a distinct increas
In order to reach the climate targets for the society, with significant lower proportions of CO2 emissions than today, certain actions are required. To be able to decrease the emissions, one alternative is to increase the amount of people who uses public transportation as opposed to using cars. The municipality of Åstorp is one of the districts that emits most CO2 per person and day in Scania, and
Background: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common organ anomaly in humans affecting approximately 1:125 newborns worldwide. Early diagnosis enables postnatal stabilisation and may improve outcomes, especially in critical CHD, in which the circulation is dependent on patency of the arterial duct. Detection of CHD in newborns remains incomplete and current screening programs do not aim t
This thesis explores crystal-phase engineering of nanowires to fabricate advanced quantum structures for charge and spin transport studies. Quantum dots formed by crystal-phase tuning during epitaxial growth of InAs nanowires were used as a starting point to realize and electrically characterize two different types of parallel-coupled quantum dots; electron-hole quantum dots and electron-elect
The paper/presentation gives an overview of Peer-Assisted Study Schemes (SI-PASS) in Higher Education in Europe. SI-PASS is a method of improving student performance in “difficult” courses combining “how to learn” with “what to learn”. SI-PASS sessions are scheduled parallel to the regular education and are guided and facilitated by a “senior” student, the SI-PASS leader. The sessions are based on
