The partly hot-water driven CO2 capture plant offers a significant potential for improvement in performance when implemented in a combined-cycle power plant (CCPP). It is possible to achieve the same performance with a dual-pressure steam cycle as in a triple-pressure unit. Even a single-pressure plant can attain an efficiency competitive with that achievable with a triple-pressure plant without t
Formulating and implementing a new strategy may be a challenging task, especially if it alters the way in which a company has operated and positioned itself before. This may be particularly true for companies within the forest industry, like manufacturers of paper packaging products, pursuing differentiated customer value and innovative solutions where, traditionally, success has been measured in
e concept of ecosystem services was originally developed to illustrate the benefits that natural ecosystems generate for society and to raise awareness for biodiversity and ecosystem conservation. In this article we identify major challenges and opportunities for ecologists involved in empirical or modeling ecosystem service research. The first challenge arises from the fact that the ecosystem ser
A new influenza virus that was first detected in people in April 2009, was initially referred to colloquially as "swine flu", since it contained genes from swine, avian and human influenza viruses. It can, however, not be transmitted by eating pork or dealing with pigs. In Egypt, several hundred thousand pigs were killed in May, in spite of advice from global health authorities that such an action
Recent data suggest that platelets not only control thrombosis and hemostasis but may also regulate inflammatory processes such as acute pancreatitis. However, the specific role of platelet-derived mediators in the pathophysiology of acute pancreatitis is not known. Herein, we examined the role of CD40 ligand (CD40L, CD154) in different models of acute pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis was induced
The effective mechanical properties of polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA) reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were evaluated by means of two approaches: experiments and a micromechanical model. With various concentrations of CNTs, two specimen fabrication processes were examined: hot pressing (HP) and injection molding (IM). Experiments included a series of uniaxial tensile tests guided by an ASTM
Nerve fibres play an important role in the regulation of gastric emptying. The aims of this study were to clarify the distribution, projections and origin of neuronal type nitric oxide synthase (NOS)-, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-, vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAchT)- and peptide-containing nerve fibres of the rat pyloric sphincter. Extrinsic and local denervations of the sphincter were perf
Heavy metal pollution from untreated industrial wastewater has become a major concern to the environment and public health in many rapidly growing cities in low-income countries. Previous studies on heavy metals of urban wastewater systems have focused on long-term (weekly or seasonal) variations, while only few studies investigated short-term (daily) variation to capture potential bulk discharges

The aim of the study at had was to explore the potential of Natural Capital Accounting (NCA) to integrate environment into business decision-making. In order to fulfill the aim, the research was split into three main parts. First, the existing views on what constitutes NCA were reviewed through a literature analysis of grey literature, and the working definition established. The study found that t
With the climate change and urbanization process, the frequency of the urban flooding’s occurrence has increased in the recent years. It brings great economic losses to the cities, especially to the basements of individual properties. Low Impact Development (LID), which currently advocated by more city planners for managing stormwater, is considered as a more sustainable way to mitigate urban floo

Sustainability reporting is the primary way corporate sustainability data is disseminated to stakeholders and the wider public. While sustainability reporting is growing, certain industries still lag, such as shipping. Given the crucial role sustainability reporting can play in driving sustainable business practices, promoting improved reporting in the shipping industry is a valuable goal. This t
BIM, byggnadsinformationsmodellering, är ett arbetssätt som blir allt vanligare. Det innebär att olika objekt bygger upp en övergripande 3D-modell där man kan finna mängder av information om dessa objekt. Ett objekt kan vara allt ifrån en bropelare till en elstolpe. Syftet med denna rapport är att utifrån Trafikverkets roll som beställare undersöka vilka för- och nackdelar det skulle innebära med BIM, Building Information Modeling, is an increasingly common way of working. This means that different objects build up an overall 3D-model where you can find lots of information about these objects. An object can be anything from a bridge pillar to an electric pole. The purpose of this report is to, based on the Swedish Transport Administrations’ as a client, investigate the advantages and disad
Hur ser vår inre NuRD ut? NuRD är ett molekylkomplex som arbetar med att slå på och av gener i vårt DNA. Man har upptäckt att NuRD ibland stänger av gener som normalt verkar för att hämma cancer. Om man kunde ta reda på den exakta strukturen av NuRD så skulle man kunna designa läkemedel som hindrar NuRD från att stänga av våra naturliga cancerhämmare. Vår arvsmassa är samlad som en kod i en vär
År 2009 bedömdes det att cirka 70 000 unga mäns och kvinnors val när det gällde äktenskap och val av partner i Sverige var begränsat eller villkorat. Regeringen konstaterade att lagstiftningen inte på ett effektivt sätt motverkade förekomsten av tvångs- och barnäktenskap och lade därför fram förslag till civilrättsliga och straffrättsliga lagändringar. Lagändringarna trädde i kraft den 1 juli 2014In 2009, it was estimated that around 70 000 young men’s and women’s choice when it came to marriage and choice of partner in Sweden was limited or conditional. The Government concluded that the legislation did not effectively fight the occurrence of forced marriage and child marriage, and therefore presented a proposition for civil and criminal law changes. The law changes came into force July 1s
This thesis in whole is essentially envisaged to display the evolutionary process of the protection of the right to data protection, with a focus on cross-border data transfers, specifically between the EU and the U.S. post-Schrems case. The Schrems case marks a pivotal moment in the definition of the notion of privacy and data protection in many ways, among which the downfall of Safe Harbor is th
The case Micula gave people the impression that EU law and ICSID arbitration law are incompatible legal orders, unable to accept each other’s dissenting opinions. Every ICSID tribunal decision in the field seems to cause heavy defence reactions in the EU legal system. However, this clearly does not have to be the case if all parties involved behave cautiously. This thesis will analyse in detail
Att vittna är en lagstadgad skyldighet i Sverige. Om man vägrar att inställa sig som vittne trots att man är kallad riskerar man att tvångsmedel riktas mot en. Under senare tid har möjligheten till anonyma vittnesmål diskuterats på en rad olika håll i samhället, då man allt oftare ser en ovilja att vittna på grund av rädsla att drabbas av repressalier. Enligt en allmän uppfattning är det inte tillTo testify is a statutory duty in Sweden. If one refuses to testify, even though one are called by the court, one risks that compulsions will be directed towards one. Recently, the possibility of anonymous testimony has been discussed in the Swedish society, as the reluctance to testify has increased due to the fear of reprisals. But according to the general view in Sweden, it is not allowed to wi
