I dagsläget energiåtervinner vi största delen av vårt producerade avfall i Sverige, men under 1900-talet var deponering en flitigt använd metod att hantera avfall på. Eftersom deponeringen av avfall sedan slutet av 1990-talet minskat kraftigt förväntas produktionen av gas som bildas under avfallets nedbrytning i framtiden att minska. Detta får till följd att dagens lösningar att använda gasen på bLandfill gas, consisting mainly of methane and carbon dioxides, is produced on waste disposal sites which contain organic waste. The release of the gas to the environment gives rise to several environmental effects. Regulation in Sweden requires that the landfill gas is managed in some way, for example to reduce emissions. The management options are energy utilization or flaring. In a situation wi

Uppsatsen fokuserar på Bangladesh, ett land vars välfärd bygger på klädindustrins import och export. Uppsatsen önskar belysa hur barnarbete påverkar barnen, både deras vardag och framtid. Travis Hirschis teori om sociala band är relevant eftersom den bland annat pekar ut "legitima aktiviteter" såsom arbete eller skola som brottspreventivt. Mitt syfte är att utreda vad som talar för och v

In a society where information is increasingly available through digital means, the performance of Swedish students is at a decline. The amount of students with access to their own computer and the internet is higher than any generation before them. Even though the amount of digital teaching tools increase rapidly many still lack the necessary quality to replace traditional teaching tools. An atte

Modulbaserad lakvattenbehandling - en möjlighet att minska soptipparnas påverkan på människa och miljö? Uppemot 8000 gamla övergivna deponier och ett 70-tal aktiva deponier finns i Sverige. Gemensamt för dessa är att de kan ge upphov till ett förorenat lakvatten. Genom tillämpningen av ett modulbaserat reningssystem kan effekterna på människa och miljö begränsas. Modulsystemet har visat sig vara fA change in legislation has resulted in that many of Sweden’s municipal landfills were closed in the beginning of this century. After landfill completion, the oper-ator is responsible for at least 30 years to take action with regard to the protec-tion of human health and the Environment. In contribution Swedish landfill owners are facing increasing demands on local leachate treatment due to a chan

The adverse impacts to environmental and human well-being derived from the past achievements in agricultural productivity and modernised food systems now call for building up sustainable farming systems. Increasingly specialised, standardised and concentrated agrifood systems have evoked both academic and practical interest in enhancing more place-based and integrated farming styles with shared be

Inom sälj antas säljare uppvisa olika beteenden beroende på vilken roll de har. Det visar sig dock att de flesta arbetar på ett mer enhetligt sätt än vad man kan tro.In sales, it is presumed that the behavior of sales personnel differs depending on what part of sales they are in. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are no studies about conducting a segmentation of sales personnel based on behavioral data from Salesforce, the world’s largest Customer Relationship Management platform. Previous research describes how to segment different customers based

The relationship between fertility rate and economic growth is an important subject. This thesis sums up the current research status and use in regression and correlation data analysis, which consists of 120 developing countries in total from 1970 to 2014. On the one hand, total fertility rate has a negative effect on economic growth in the current period. When human capital is scarce, returns of

During the first two decades of the 2000s, new perspectives on feasts and their social functions have been brought to the forefront by proponents of ethnoarchaeology. Concerns about diet, subsistence and reciprocity have been present in archaeology for a long time but recently the perspective has shifted somewhat, to include theories of the cultural symbolism and function of food and the importanc

I en tid då många gravstenar tas bort på grund av säkerhetsskäl vill denna uppsats visa hur man, med en gravsten som ingång, kan göra en historisk etnologisk studie av de människor som vilar under den och den sociala och kulturella kontext som de levde i samt de meningssammanhang som resulterade i stenens resning. Arbetet delas upp i avsnitt som handlar om gravstenen och informationen som den ger

Due to expanding cities and increasing population infrastructure needs to expand in a safe and sustainable way with little effect on the environment and economy. Years of urbanization doesn’t make it easy, no free spaces are available and culture marked buildings are protected. The only alternative left is to construct in layers. Roads and other kinds of infrastructure beneath ground level is ther

The aim of this essay is to contribute to the field of research for language teachers in order to raise the awareness of the Education Act concerning the fundamental values which enforce an equal education for every student. Research made by the National Agency for Education presents results were the fundamental values are not incorporated satisfactorily into the daily teaching but rather dealt wi

Two methods of computational analysis of DNA barcodes are presented. A DNA barcode is formed by making GC-rich regions of a DNA molecule fluoresce while AT-rich regions remain dark, thus when stretched using nano-channels and viewed in a microscope, the DNA molecule will resemble a barcode with black and white stripes. Because of point-spread functions and pixellation the resolution will be roughl

This study has as its theme the role of food in literature and more specifically to investigate it in three works: the novel Like Water for Chocolate (1989) by Laura Esquivel, the short-story “Lección de cocina” (1971) by Rosario Castellanos and the short-story “El corazón de la alcachofa” (2003) by Elena Poniatowska. With the support of previous studies on the subject, starting from Antiquity wit

In the 2014 Swedish national election the Sweden Democrats, a radical right-wing and anti-immigrant party, established itself as the third biggest party and as an outcome, racism has become an everyday issue of the society. This can be seen everywhere, not least in educational settings where, for instance, insulting language use, violation of integrity, sexual harassment and hate crimes are common

This paper explores how and why one teacher’s code-switching arises, as well as for what purpose, in upper secondary English as a second language (ESL) classrooms in Sweden. Code-switching is defined as a switch between different languages, between the first language (L1), and second language (L2) or target language (TL), within the same speech situation. To be able to understand and investigate t

The work researches which are the most profitable renovations measures when it comes to apartment buildings build in Sweden, during the Million Programme, between the years 1969-1974. By reviewing studies conducted on twelve properties, located in Sweden's third climatic zone, this work will find the renovation measures that are most common. Three of the most prevalent renovation measures are

Den svenska dansbandsmusiken och den kultur som hör där till har kommit att bli något av ett fenomen i Sverige. Syftet med den här musiksociologiska uppsats är att undersöka genrens musikaliska och sociokulturella beståndsdelar för att kunna bilda en uppfattning om varför dansband kommit att bli lika älskat som ratat, med en kärna i musiksmak. Den metodologiska utgångspunkt som använts i arbetspro

Miff Mole spelade trombon och hade stort genomslag på 1920-talet. Hans storhetstid varade från 1922 till 1928. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka Moles trombonspel i hans tidiga karriär innan 1925, visa hur han utvecklades från ensemblemusiker till solist och hur han klev fram i första raden och blev jämbördig de andra melodiinstrumenten. Vilka andra samtida trombonister som han kan ha hört
