Detta examensarbete undersöker hur de uppdaterade kriterierna i certifieringssystemet Miljöbyggnad påverkar hållbarhetsmålen inom bygg- och fastighetssektorn. Arbetet utgår från den centrala problematiken att byggsektorn är en av de största källorna till utsläpp och negativ miljöpåverkan. Miljöcertifieringssystem har potentialen att minska den negativa miljöpåverkan inom bygg- och fastighetssektorThis thesis examines how the updated criteria in the Miljöbyggnad certification system affect sustainability goals in the construction and real estate sector. The work is based on that the construction sector is one of the largest sources of emissions and negative environmental impact. Environmental assessment methods have the potential to reduce the negative environmental impact of the constructi

This study focuses on the feasibility of gravity-driven membrane (GDM) microfiltration (MF) as a low-energy treatment option for urban lake restoration in Lund, Sweden. Four lakes, namely Sjön Sjön, Stadsparken, Kunskapsparken Dammen, and Spexardammen, were selected based on their varying water quality characteristics. A silicon carbide (SiC) membrane was tested in a laboratory-scale setup operate

This thesis examines the development Forest Green Rovers has undergone since their current owner and Chairman joined the club. With a clear vision and agenda, the aim was to over time transform the club into something greater than just sporting achievements. For nearly fifteen years, the club's management has been dedicated to embedding sustainability in all aspects of the club's operation

This thesis addresses state regulation of assisted reproductive technology in Sweden. Particularly the assessment of parental potential, which according to Swedish law is mandatory when seeking to reproduce with donor gametes through assisted reproduction. Theoretically the study enters into a critical dialogue with a reproductive justice framework, theories on reproductive racism, along with Jasb

Fermentation of Ulva spp., a protein-rich green macroalga, offers a sustainable approach for utilising an available resource and developing functional food ingredients. However, its high levels of inorganic matter, polyphenols, and complex polysaccharides such as ulvan pose challenges to microbial metabolism. This study investigated the effects of various pretreatment strategies, including hot wat

Syftet med denna studie var att kvalitativt utforska lärares syn på kunskapsbildning och kommunikation om klimatförändringar med elever i Vietnam, ett land med förhöjd klimatrisk. Med utgångspunkt i Hanoi genomfördes åtta (N = 8) semistrukturerade intervjuer med lärare på temat klimatundervisning. Materialet bearbetades sedan i en tematisk analys med abduktiv metod: delvis datadriven, delvis genomThis study qualitatively explored a sample of teachers' climate change conceptualizations and communication with school students in Vietnam, a country with high susceptibility to major climate change-related impacts. Fieldwork was conducted in Hanoi, where eight (N = 8) teachers were interviewed in a semi-structured format, focusing on the topic of climate change education. The material was ex

Gas in Scattering Media Absorption Spectroscopy (GASMAS) is a near-infrared (IR) optical spectroscopy technique showing great potential in the continuous, non-invasive monitoring of the lungs. While the feasibility of GASMAS has been proven in neonatal lung studies, applying the technique to older children and adults is challenging. The increased tissue thickness strongly attenuates the signal, ne

To promote sustainable manufacturing and lower industrial emissions, GE HealthCare is constantly assessing new approaches to improve their production processes. As a global manufacturer of contrast media, their potential for positive societal impact is significant. In addition to sustainability, a pharmaceutical production process is required to deliver products of high purity. This means that the

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has transformed the study of antibody repertoires by enabling high-throughput, in-depth analysis of immune diversity and antigen-driven selection. When paired with in vitro display technologies, NGS offers unparalleled resolution in characterizing antibody libraries, but also presents substantial computational challenges due to the highly variable nature of antibod

The Million Homes Programme, launched in Sweden during the 1960s, resulted in the construction of over one million homes to address a national housing shortage. A majority of the houses consist of linear block buildings, many of which now require renovation. Moreover, climate change and increasing energy demands have put pressure on the building sector to reduce emissions and improve energy perfor

Uppsatsen undersöker rättighetsskyddet för samerna som ursprungsbefolkning och rennäringen i den gröna omställningen. Fokus ligger på hur skyddet tillvaratas när riksintresset rennäring ställs mot riksintresset energiproduktion i tillståndsprocesser för vindkraftverk. En rättsdogmatisk och kritisk rättsdogmatisk metod används. Undersökningen är relevant eftersom Sverige fått återkommande kritik, bThe essay examines the protection of the rights of the Sámi as an Indigenous people, and of reindeer herding, in the context of the green transition. It focuses on how these rights are safeguarded when the national interest in reindeer husbandry comes into conflict with the national interest in energy production. Specifically, during the permit process for wind power development. A legal dogmatic

Flygskatt har under många år varit en del av den svenska skatteaparaten. Flygskatten klassificeras som en punktskatt vilket är skatter som appliceras på ett antal produkter och tjänster som anses vara farliga för den allmänna hälsan och samhället i stort. Efter ett sammanträde i riksdagen beslutades det att flygskatten avskaffas den första juli i år (2025). Beslutet har fått blandade reakt-ioner dAviation tax has for many years been a part of the Swedish tax system. The aviation tax is categorized as an excise duty, which refers to taxes applied to certain goods and services that are considered as harmful to the public health and to society as a whole. After a session in the Swedish Parliment, it was decided that the avitation tax will be abolished on the 1st of July this year (2025). The

Fire safety design for complex buildings often relies on the Performance-based Design approach which assesses the margin of safety by comparing Available Safe Egress Time with Required Safe Egress Time. However, most current modelling tools often operate independently or at most with one-way coupling. This potentially reduces the accuracy of fire safety assessments by failing to capture dynamic in

This thesis was developed in partnership with SCM Group, a leading Italian manufacturer of material-cutting machinery operating an extensive international network of production sites and clients. Because of the magnitude of its operations, SCM’s technical support teams manage a large volume of support tickets-records submitted by clients on a daily bases: structured reports documenting machine fai

The urbanization term is widely used in contexts, when discussing urban emergence. However, the term linked to processes multidimensional which requires a wide perspective on what forms the basis for changes in the landscape. It is not only the origin that is essential in urban development matters, but also how the multi-dimensional processes vary with different factors in the landscape over time,

I denna text presenteras en kvalitativ intervjustudie baserad på utsagor från tio informanter med utgångspunkt i hur kriminella nätverk har förändrats. Forskning har visat att Sverige är unikt vad gäller ökningen av skjutvapenvåld. Den grupp som står för majoriteten av våldet är unga män. Den organiserade brottsligheten har genomgått en förändring från MC-gängens tydliga organisationsstruktur och

The study aims to explore the increasingly relevant and theoretically underexplored field of ridesharing as a solution for first and last-mile transportation, its success factors and challenges, as well as the process of integrating ridesharing into a public transport network. It utilizes a business model innovation framework as the theoretical basis to explore success factors as well as challenge
