Sverige satsar lite på biometanol som biobränsle, trots att flera studier visat att metanol från skogsråvara och annan biomassa ger högst energiutbyte och på sätt kan klassas som miljövänligast. Nu tyder nya forskningsresultat från motorlabbet vid Lunds Tekniska Högskola på att något justerade förbränningsmotorer kan köras på rå-metanol, det vill säga den metanol som kommer direkt från förgasnings

Amanda Moberg In Amanda Moberg´s MFA exhibition ”The paths are a pattern only the weaves can see” I was meet by numerous works, all navigating around weaving as a focus point. The works seemed to be engaged with how the notion of weaving comes from language itself and how language can be shifted into new meanings, forms and questions. In French for example, text and textile share the same etymolog

Emma Kritzberg took the train to a meeting on Mallorca. A journey that took 54 hours and cost double what it would have to fly a couple of hours to the Mediterranean island. Yet, flying was never an option. She has not flown once for work or privately in the last six years, a conscious decision she took to reduce her carbon footprint. Emma Kritzberg, professor at the Department of Biology, stepped

When physical geographer Daniel Metcalfe explains what he does in the simplest possible way, he says he examines holes in leaves. However, the project is far more sophisticated than that, and could lead to a better way of caring for the forests of the world in the future. Hanging bridges are practical when studying leaves in tree crowns. Photo taken in Peru. Photo: Jake Bryant Daniel Metcalfe is a
