Med ökande koncentrationer av koldioxid (CO2) i atmosfären kan energieffektiva tekniker för koldioxidinfångning (CCS) bli viktiga för att växthusgasutsläppen ska minska. Rapportens syfte har varit att experimentellt bestämma och utvärdera fyra egenskaper hos lösningar av vatten, dimetylsulfoxid (DMSO) och aminoalkoholen 2-amino-2-metyl-1-propanol (AMP) som ska användas i en pilotanläggning. Vid inWith increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations, energy efficient carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies could prove important to enable reductions in the global CO2 emissions. The aim was to investigate a novel, non-aqueous, and precipitating chemical absorption system of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), which forms solid carbamate salt cryst

Den europeiska granbarkborren är en insekt som för många räknas till skadedjur. Den har varit ansvarig för förstörelse av över 150 miljoner m3 granskog i Europa under de senaste 50 åren. Global uppvärmning har orsakat förändringar av barkborrens utbredning då problem uppstått med stora utbrott som nu regelbundet inträffar i norra Europa på grund av varmare och utdragna sommarsäsonger. Sverige har The European spruce bark beetle is an insect that is often referred to as a pest. Responsible for the destruction of over 150 million m3 of Norwegian spruce forest in Europe over the last 50 years makes this insect one of the major disturbances to the forest industry. With global warming at large, changes of the distribution of the bark beetle have emerged with large outbreaks now regularly occurr

Personalization is a strategic way for retailers to tailor an experience based on information provided by the customer, to fulfill the individual's needs. It has been explored in great detail, resulting in benefits being revealed, as well as strategies being put forth. However, this study identifies great possibilities to improve our knowledge of the research field, by adopting a holistic appr

This study explored what consumers value about Influencer Launched Brands, utilising the novel concept of Human Brand Publics as a theoretical foundation to analyse this phenomenon. Simultaneously, this research aimed to develop the novel theoretical contribution of Human Brand Publics. Qualitative data from Generation Z, Influencer Launched Brands consumers was gathered and analysed to develop a

Since a brain injury often can affect the memory in some ways it is sometimes hard to remember to bring that piece of paper. And since more and more people of the aging population carry a cellphone daily - the need for a digital alternative to My health document became more apparent. In this project we got the task of digitalizing My health document. We confirmed the need for a digital solution by

Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att genom en litteraturstudie av två vetenskapliga artiklar som undersökt medierapporteringen kring två fall rörande protester i sportsliga sammanhang, försöka ta reda på hur medierapporteringen i amerikanska tidningar sett ut för respektive fall och jämföra dessa med varandra för att hitta likheter och olikheter. Fallen det rör sig om är Tommie Smith och Joh

I have always been curious about the effects architecture and the built environment have on us. The special atmosphere and the ability to arouse a sense of safety and calmness, but also the negative feelings certain spaces can evoke. Which architectural elements contribute to the way we perceive a space and more importantly, does the built environment not only affect our emotions but also our ment

The purpose of this study is twofold. The first is to examine the board monitoring's impact on accrual-based earnings management, as reflected by the absolute value of discretionary accruals. The second is to investigate the moderating effect of CEO power on the relationship between board monitoring and accrual-based earnings management. The study follows a deductive approach and a quantitati

The purpose of this paper is to investigate one of the seven characteristics proposed by Northcott and Alkaraan (2007): the characteristic of non-programmability. This paper responds to the call for a nuanced understanding of how companies are programming strategic investment decisions (Alkaraan, 2016, p. 520). The purpose is fulfilled by conducting multiple case studies. The data collection metho

Helamalmö is an organization working in politically neglected areas where they implement social solutions to social problems. This essay aims to study Helamalmö's structural work for social change and analyze how their relational work with children and youths contributes to the experience of safety, belonging and faith in the future. The results present empirical data collected through intervi

In today's fast-paced business environment, organizations need to adapt and improve their ways of working to keep up with competitors. This change is putting more pressure on Human Resources (HR) and their ability to implement transformation projects to become more efficient, automated, and data-driven. Organizations invest enormous amounts of resources to implement these HR transformation pro

During the 90s, the Swedish government implemented a series of neoliberal housing policies in search of a wayout for the economic crisis, including demolition of the ministry of housing, deregulations and disincentivising housing construction, which has created decline in housing production and privatisation of municipal housing companies. The neoliberal policy reform was attributed to the shortag

I denna studie undersöks Djurgårdens IFs supportrars identitetsskapande och medieanvändning med syftet att ge ett nytt perspektiv inom forskning om den svenska supporterkulturens påverkan på individen. Tre kvalitativa intervjuer förs med hängivna fans av fotbollsklubben för att samla in empiriskt material. Materialet analyseras utifrån identitetsteori och det ritualistiska synsättet på kommunikati

Vid utveckling av stora applikationer använder sig många företag av tekniker så som testdriven utveckling för att skapa en stor samling av test som de sedan kan använda sig av för att validera skriven kod. Detta har blivit standarden på många arbetsplatser. Problem uppstår när en applikation redan är utvecklad och test ej har skrivits under utvecklingens gång. Detta gör det näst intill omöjligt atWhen developing a large application, many companies use techniques such as Test Driven Development in order to get a range of tests on which they later can validate their code with. This has become the standard in many work environments. Problems arise when an application is already developed and tests has not been written in the course of the development. This makes it near impossible to validate

Kan outnyttjade jordburksrester öka produktionen av hållbara fordonsbränslen? Halmstrå utgör en outnyttjad potential till ökad biogasproduktion, vilket kan användas som fordonsbränsle efter uppgradering till 97% metan. Under detta arbete utfördes ekonomiska utvärderingar på storskalig biometan produktion från halmstrå och/eller avloppsslam. Biogas bildas vid nedbrytning av organiskt material undAn increased production of fuels derived from renewable resources is required to obtain a sustainable energy production without greenhouse gas emissions. Biogas is regarded as a renewable energy source which can be used for heat, electricity, and fuel production. However, a purity of 97% methane is required if the produced biogas is to be injected to the natural-gas grid and used as vehicle fuel.

In recent years the importance of financial inclusion for economic growth has been thoroughly discussed. Particularly, the impact of mobile money in the context of developing economies has risen in prominence. This thesis adds to existing literature by exploring the how mobile money increases financial inclusion by conceptualizing it as a process with relative stages. Different theories have been

Electric vehicle (EV) charging may be used in aggregation as virtual batteries to provide a frequency regulating service to the power grid. The service is sold on the Frequency Containment Reserve (FCR) markets, and is traded one and two days ahead. Forecasts of charging patterns are essential to reliably provide this ancillary service. The thesis aims to build a generalized model for forecasting

The ongoing surge in internet users worldwide and its complexity causes organisations to digitally transform to stay competitive. Previous research repeatedly emphasised the importance of digital transformation, but the authors see a gap in the literature regarding digital transformation. General change management models have been around, but a more focused framework for digital transformation is
