Den pågående klimatförändringens effekter kan komma att bli förödande för människan och forskare menar att det är människan själv som till stor del är orsaken till detta miljöproblem. Forskarna menar att mänskliga utsläpp av växthusgaser från framförallt förbränning av fossila bränslen är orsaken till den globala uppvärmning vi kan se idag. Av denna anledning är det viktigt att insatser görs på alThe ongoing climate change may have devastating consequences all over the world. Most scientists are in agreement that the cause of this global environmental problem is anthropogenic releases of greenhouse gases, of which the main contributor is the combustion of fossil fuels. In order to limit these effects, it is imperative to take action immediately, globally as well as locally. Earlier resear

Fara för trichotecener i spannmål? med fokus på T-2/HT-2 Det går att undvika bekämpningsmedel i våra livsmedel eftersom det finns ekologiskt odlade livsmedel. Däremot går det inte att undvika mykotoxiner. De bildas av svampar. I spannmål påträffas bland annat mykotoxinet T-2/HT-2 som tillhör mykotoxingruppen trichotecener och kommer från svampsläktet Fusarium. Riskanalys är den vedertagna metodenThe process of how a maximum level is created for mycotoxins in the European Union is described here. The focus is on the mycotoxin T-2/HT-2 that is formed by Fusarium, a fungus that infects grains. T-2/HT-2 has been an issue for a long time without having a maximum level. This literature study will give an overview of how the process of creating a maximum level works. Risk analysis is the name

Långvariga avtalsrelationer, särskilt de som löper på obestämd tid, löper stor risk att utsättas för ändrade förhållanden och oförutsedda händelser. Frågan om ändrade förhållanden och hur dessa inverkar på avtalet och avtalsrelationen tillhör ett av avtalsrättens mest grundläggande problemområden. Fokus i denna uppsats ligger på omförhandlingsklausulerna som medel för avtalsparterna att själva anpLong-term contractual relationships, especially those that run indefinitely, are at high risk of exposure to changing circumstances and unforeseen events. The issue of changing conditions and their impact on the contract and the contractual relationship is one of the basic problem areas of the contract law. The focus of this essay is that of the renegotiation clauses as a means for the contracting

Carrot juice concentrate (CJC) produced from fresh carrots is used in various applications in the beverage industry. Its quality is mainly defined by the carotenoid concentration which in turn strongly depends on the quality of the raw material and the processing technique.

De äldre äldre, dvs. personer över åttio år, blir allt fler i vårt samhälle. Studier har visat att insatser för att nå en god hälsa har som störst betydelse om de sätts in i förebyggande syfte. För att få reda på vilka faktorer de hälsofrämjande och förebyggande arbetet ska fokusera på behövs kunskap om hur de äldre äldre definierar god hälsa. Syftet med studien var därför att undersöka oberoende

Examensarbetet redogör för hur BRF Djingis Khan i Lund kan effektivisera sin energianvändning. Bostädernas konstruktion och hushållens energibeteende studeras i syfte att ställa upp en korrekt energibalans, mellan tillförd och bortförd energi. Delar som är ineffektiva ur ett energiperspektiv identifieras och åtgärdsförslag tas fram.

The desire to know what the future might bring has always been part of the human nature and as human beings, we have extrapolated that desire to most aspects of our surroundings. Energy is a basic need for human development, and thus, energy deployment has not been exempt from that desire. Nowadays, energy models have become a standard tool to assess many areas of the energy sector, including proj

The market uptake of solid-state lighting (SSL) is slow, even though it has many advantages and could deliver a variety of benefits to the society. The public sector is a large actor in the lighting market and could play an important role in accelerating SSL market penetration. Nevertheless, it faces many challenges to adopt SSL.
