I takt med att hållbarhet blir viktigare söker många företag inom jordbrukssektorn lösningar för att fasa ut fossila drivmedel. Utmaningen blir ännu mer komplex när ersättningen ska vara kompatibel med en existerande fordonsflotta, utan investering i nya fordon. Denna studie jämförde fyra kommersiellt tillgängliga och förnybara drivmedel med referensbränslet diesel. De undersökta drivmedlen är HVAs sustainability becomes more important in today's society, many companies in the agricultural sector are looking for new alternatives to fossil fuels. The challenge becomes even more complex when the replacement must be compatible with an existing vehicle fleet, without requiring new investments in vehicles. This report compares four commercially available and renewable fuels, using convent

Plant-based ice cream and whipping cream are increasingly popular as sustainable alternatives to traditional dairy products. Their low fat content makes them much healthier than high-fat dairy products. However, achieving desirable texture and stability in plant-based desserts remains a challenge. This study investigated how different processing conditions (homogenization pressure, upstream/downst

This study evaluated the efficacy of reduced-temperature pasteurization in preserving the nutritional, sensory, and microbial integrity of two fruit juice products: a standard orange juice and a probiotic mango juice enriched with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v, conducted at Österlenmejeriet AB in Lunnarp, a subsidiary of Danone. Laboratory-scale thermal treatments were applied at temperatures

Fruit-based beverages, such as juices and ciders, are widely consumed due to their nutritional value, but are also susceptible to microbial spoilage, contributing to food waste. This study aimed to investigate the presence and behaviour of spoilage microorganisms along the production lines of two fruit-based beverages: apple cider and a pear fruit drink. Sampling was conducted at various proce

Bangladesh faces recurrent and severe flooding due to its low-lying topography and intense monsoon climate, making it one of the most flood-prone countries in the world. These floods pose significant threats to human life, infrastructure, and economic stability which is projected to intensify under future climate change scenarios. This thesis presents a flood susceptibility assessment using the An

Stair width, riser height, tread depth and design may vary between different stairs. This study investigated how stairs with a variation of dimensions and designs affect people’s walking patterns, walking speed, and risk of falling. The thesis involved conducting observations and video recordings in six stairways with varying width, riser height, tread depth, and design, in addition to a brief lit

The transition towards renewable energy technologies is essential to mitigate climate change. However, the intermittency of Variable Renewable Energy (VRE) such as wind and solar creates seasonal imbalances in the electricity supply. To address this, inter-seasonal energy storage solutions are needed. Produced via electrolysis from excess electricity, hydrogen offers a promising storage medium. Ho

This thesis explores the implementation of horizontal policies through the legal framework of public procurement, focusing on the case of youth employment policies in Sweden. Youth unemployment is a serious societal issue attracting significant media and academic attention. Apart from its original function as an instrument of purchase for public needs, public procurement is also a powerful policy

For those who experience development-induced displacement and involuntary resettlement, they have to confront a range of adverse consequences, including the impoverishment risks, lifestyle and livelihood changes, and the precarity brought by asymmetrical power relations. Based on a case study of the Three Gorges Project (TGP), this research investigates the role of state law in shaping the identit

This thesis critically examines the Swedish ‘Security Zones’ legislation, the associated governmental discourse on organised criminality, and their implications for equality and racial justice.

IPH, specifically men's lethal violence against females, persists as a persuasive issue, both internationally and nationally. This is despite political reforms such as the 2020 legal amendment addressing such violence.

This thesis investigates the changing debate over legitimacy in digital platform governance using the well-publicized case of Elon Musk's acquisition of Twitter (rebranded as X) and the European Union's reaction via the Digital Services Act (DSA), public statements and enforcement efforts. The question of who rules digital platforms, and how, has become critical as they progressively impac

Theravāda Buddhist monks live within a plural legal world: the monastic law codes (Vinaya), state laws, and the normative expectations and judgments of laypeople. The aim of this thesis is to, from the perspective of the sociology of law, explore the underlying factors behind Buddhist monastics’ behavior in Vientiane, Laos, and to offer methodological insights for socio-legal ethnographic research

The rule of law, as a topic of long-standing concern to the sociology of law, has been contributed to by countless scholars from theoretical and empirical perspectives. However, there is still great potential for the study of the rule of law in other countries beyond the conventional Western understanding. This is especially the case for research on the rule of law in China, a self-proclaimed soci

This thesis examines the Indonesian Government Regulation 25/24, which enables re-ligious organizations to obtain mining concessions, focusing on the socio-legal ten-sions, and power dynamics between the government, regulation, and religious organi-zations. The thesis’ primary purpose is to critically analyze how regulation that is pre-sented in neutral and technocratic language and can be utilize

Modernity is reflected in various sectors, with education being one of the most prominent. New expectations have emerged, and a ‘juridification’ of schooling has increased the pressure on teachers by assigning them new responsibilities that were traditionally managed by other authorities. Despite a legislative shift in the Swedish Educational Act in 2010, there remains a lack of clarity regarding

Barnfridsbrott is a newly implemented law in Sweden introduced as a result of incorporating the CRC into national law. The law was created due to both legal limitations and the need for ad

While Swedish politics actively develops crime prevention strategies, particularly targeting gang-related criminality, the role of schools in these strategies raises critical concerns. This thesis focuses on the legal obligation of principals to inform the police, which may help prevent, hinder, or detect criminal activity. Schools are increasingly positioned as arenas for policing and prevention,
