Three potential filter materials, granular activated carbon, bone meal and iron fines, were evaluated for treatment of heavy metal contaminated landfill leachate. All materials could sorb some metals to a high extent; more than 90 % of some metals were removed. However, all filters suffered from the drawback of releasing unwanted substances. Geochemical modelling was used to elucidate sorption mec

Digital systems are integrated in our environment and have become a natural part of our every day life. As we rely more on these systems our expectations on them increases. We expect them to perform new tasks, communicate and cooperate. The complexity of these systems are increasing. The increasing complexity and the requirement for flexibility, which allows the system to adapt and evolve over tim

Reading is based on the idea of Cultural Patterns, which happen to be the mostimportant tool of Cultural Criticism Forms. This means that reading has taken asystematic path to the Cultural Criticism that led to explosion of research in the most important Blogs in the Arab and Humanistic Heritage. Taking cue from this insight, researches argue that, the book of Kalila and Domna demonstrates the exi

As a growing problem in the world, negative emotions caused by awareness of environmental and climate changes are seen as one of the biggest mental health crises of our generation. This study examines young women's relationship to eco-emotions through a thematic analysis to improve understanding of how this group can be affected by these emotions and how they can live with them. Women and youn

Allergic contact dermatitis to rubber is caused by residues of chemicals used in manufacturing a rubber product. Several different additives are used to achieve a final product of the desired characteristics. Accelerators such as thiurams, dithiocarbamates, and mercaptobenzothiazoles are often among the additives responsible for allergic reactions recognized by dermatologists. The chemistry of the

The aim of this project was to generate knowledge to enable us to take advantage of heat storage in heavy building structures with regard to as energy savings, better thermal indoor climate, and reduced peak powers. This could include buildings that can function without energy input during cold periods, buildings that give a robust indoor climate without installed cooling, and buildings with good

Information about the risks involved shall be distributed to the people living in the area nearby to potentially dangerous installation. Swedish law stipulates strict requirements on what information should be supplied, but the law itself does not give any guidance on presentation. The main purpose of the study is to give recommendations on how to improve the information brochures. Within the stud
