Många anläggningar projekteras idag under jord. Det gör att det tillkommer krav på vattentätning av berget. Ett sätt att vattentäta en konstruktion är att använda dukmembran eller tunnelduk. Dock råder det oklarheter hur provningsmetoderna för brandklassificering och standarder skiljer sig internationellt. I en alltmer globaliserad värld är det viktigt att provningsmetoderna jämförs med varandra,

PFAS contamination in drinking water is a current problem, and new regulations for drinking water limits were recently implemented in each member country of the EU in January this year. Understanding the spread of PFAS in groundwater is therefore important to prevent it from reaching drinking water sources. Groundwater modeling is a valuable tool for this purpose. However, due to the specific char

Reducing CO2 emissions from combustion of fossil fuels is a big priority around the globe today. Some strategies to minimize air pollution and the increasing greenhouse gas effect are using recyclables and CO2 tax but an energy source replacement from fossil fuels is needed. Renewable energies are a good source of energy, but a stable storage system is required in order to be able to implement thi

Offshore wind energy plays an important role in this transition, and is expected to expand considerably on a global level, in the EU and in Sweden. While Swedes show high support of wind energy, a majority of recent projects have bee
