Popular Abstract in English The world’s resources of fossil fuels are rapidly being depleted, and we now know that the combustion of these fuels leads to the emission of greenhouse gases resulting in climate change. It is therefore imperative that we develop renewable sources of fuel. The production of bioethanol in Brazil is the best example today of the introduction of a renewable fuel on a largLignocellulosic biomass refers to plant material that is composed mainly of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. These materials are today of large interest to researchers in the field of biofuel and bioenergy. Residues for forestry and agriculture are particularly interesting since they result from crops with established cultivation procedures and technology for harvest and transportation are alr

The infrastructure for the third generation of mobile telephony, UMTS, is under construction in Sweden. Within three years four operators were to build competing systems to cover 99,98 % of the population. The case of the 3G infrastructure illustrates how sustainability issues are handled in planning and environmental management, with conflicting goals between institutional levels and contradict

Catalytic processes have tremendous importance in our everyday life. Most chemicals, pharmaceuticals, plastics etc. are, in fact, produced with the help of catalysts. What is probably even more important is that the toxic wastes produced in great amounts by modern factories and plants are recycled or transformed into less poisonous substances by means of catalytic units. One example from our everyThe present work is devoted to atomic scale structural studies of the surfaces of model heterogeneous catalysts relevant to oxidation reactions. A novel approach using high-energy surface X-ray diffraction combined with mass-spectrometry measurements is employed to perform in situ structural characterization of Pd(100) and Pd(553) single crystal surfaces acting as catalysts in the process of CO ox

When testing bilingual children, as a speech and language therapist, one often encounter problems. A field which is especially challenging to test is lexical-semantic production. The aim was to shed more light on bilingual children’s inhibitory and switching ability during picture-naming and related non-verbal tests and which factors must be taken into consideration when evaluating these results.

This Master’s thesis is based on a field study conducted at the IdéA, a public library and meeting place in Drottninghög, Helsingborg, chosen because of its urban development mission. This mission should be understood in relation to the redevelopment plan of the Million Program area Drottninghög, where IdéA is located. In this thesis formulations and interpretations of the urban development missio

This paper departs from the notion that urban green and blue spaces provide health benefits by aiming to map other meanings of urban nature in Malmö. These meanings are explored from the perspectives of 1) how urban nature is defined by people in Malmö, 2) which functions urban nature is said to have, 3) what kinds of emotional connections to urban nature are presented, and 4) which kinds of value

Dance as an art form is strongly connected to the experience of movement. Dance is also connected to the experience that occur in the relation between the audience and the performers on stage. Therefore, information is based on subjective impressions. It’s something limited and framed in a certain time and space that arises, lives and dissolves in the body and in the now. To add the archival funct

How far back in time can we trace fire use in the human story? The archaeological data has demonstrated inconsistency when it comes to answering that question. Incontrovertible remains after hearths are scarce especially before 100,000 years BP. One of the reasons are that remains after temporary hearths doesn’t preserve well in the archaeological record in comparison with for example, stone tools

In this master's thesis, data from eight different cases of novice entrepreneurs is gathered. The goal was to investigate how novice entrepreneurs shape their decision-making process to manage uncertainty in the early stages of their ventures. Utilizing qualitative interviews conducted between March and April of 2024, this study delves into the different strategies used by novice entrepreneurs

The aim of this study is to compare the implementation process and adoption of two cooperation models, used by public organizations to coordinate the work with children’s mental health, by comparing the views of the management with the views of the staff, within children’s psychiatrics, school and social services. The study was based on interviews with eight people from the management and a questi

The one-hour workshop, containing both a demonstration and hands-on experiments on the topic of nanosafety, is based on current science on a topic of general interest. The workshop aims to provide a deeper knowledge and understanding of nanoparticles. The participants get an introduction to what nanoparticles are, why nanosized materials are interesting, how nanomaterials interact with biological The one-hour workshop, containing both a demonstration and hands-on experiments on the topic of nanosafety, is based on current science on a topic of general interest.

Whey protein powder functionality is expected to be closely linked to both structure and properties of the proteins. It is essential that whey protein powders are easily dispersed and dissolved in order to fulfil the specified nutrient content and the functionality in the final product. Poor rehydration can cause challenges on an industrial level as well as for the consumers. In this thesis, sever
