Development of Continuous Mode Fermentation with Electrochemical In-situ Product Recovery for Succinic Acid Production by Actinobacillus Succinogenes

Till skillnad från vad som visat sig i tidigare forskning verkar inte den elektrokemiska extraktionsenheten, som användes i detta projekt, ha någon positiv inverkan på satsvis fermentering. Projektet visade också att vid kontinuerlig fermentering ökade andelen transporterad bärnstenssyra, med denna extraktionsenhet, jämfört med satsvis fermentering. I det här projektet användes en bakterie som heThis project utilizes an electrochemical recover unit to extract succinic acid through an anion exchange membrane. The extraction was first used in abiotic experiments using synthetic broth mimicking a fermentation with Actinobacillus succinogenes. The extraction was favored by high salinity of the anolyte and a pH controlled at pH 7 in the catholyte. Batch fermentations were coupled with the extr

Safety in Urban Spaces using Urban Planning: a Comparative Study in Bogotá, Colombia

Många städer runt om i världen står inför samma utmaningar när det gäller kvinnors förmåga att röra sig och känna sig trygga i offentliga utrymmen. För kvinnor innebär användningen av offentliga utrymmen rädsla för sexuellt våld och för att bli attackerade, vilket tvingar dem att alltid vara vaksamma och minskar deras livskvalitet. Genom historien har städer planerats av främst manliga planerare,Many cities around the world are facing the same challenges when it comes to the ability for women to move around and feel safe in public spaces. For women, using public spaces entails fear of sexual violence and of being attacked, which forces them to always be vigilant and reduces their quality of life. Throughout history, cities have consisted of mainly male planners, designers and government

Nyexaminerade IT-studenter - hur får vi dem att trivas på arbetsplatsen från dag ett?

IT-medarbetare är idag väldigt heta på arbetsmarknaden där arbetsgivare tävlar om att få in rätt profiler. Många unga utbildar sig idag inom IT och när de tar sitt första jobb vet de hur eftertraktade de är på marknaden, vilket gör att de nyexaminerade IT-medarbetarna kan ställa ganska höga krav på sina arbetsgivare. Det räcker alltså inte bara med att vinna rekryteringstävlingen, som arbetsgivare

Koranbränningar och konsekvenser - En utredning om yttrandefrihetens relation i proportion till allmän ordning och säkerhet

Under 2000-talet har det skett många olika manifestationer i de nordiskaländerna, som ofta utmanat samhällets syn på vad som utgör en godtagbar demonstration och huruvida tydliga gränser bör sättas i medborgarnas yttrandefrihet. Ett exempel på detta har varit Rasmus Paludans manifestationer i Sverige och Danmark där han har tänt eld på Koranen, vilka i många fall har urartat. Under påsken 2022 eskIn the 2000s there have been many different demonstrations in the Nordic countries, often challenging society's view of what constitutes an acceptable demonstration and whether clear limits should be placed on citizens' freedom of expression. An example of this has been Rasmus Paludan's demonstrations in Sweden and Denmark where he has set fire to the Koran, which in many cases have de

Exploring the Agile Project Manager - A Case Study at Scania R&D

Background: Organizations implement agile methodologies with the aim to increase their ability to respond quickly and adapt to changing environments. Agile transformations include changes in the organizational structure, processes, and roles. Most agile frameworks and approaches introduce new leadership roles, such as the scrum master and product owner; however, the project manager role is not

Spatial downscaling of gridded soil moisture products using optical and thermal satellite data: the effects of using different vegetation indices

Soil moisture (SM) plays an important role in the exchange of heat and water between the surface and atmosphere, impacting water and energy cycles and the climate. Satellite remote sensing offers a global-scale estimation of SM; however, the coarse resolutions of satellite SM products, typically ranging from 25-50 km, are unsuitable for regional analysis. To overcome this limitation, various spati

Vägen till engagerade medarbetare: effekten av självledarskap i samspel med socialt stöd

Den moderna arbetsplatsen är i konstant förändring, varav nya krav ideligen ställs på såväl individen som organisationen. Behovet av engagerade medarbetare med förmågan att utveckla och leda sig själva anses vara en förutsättning för framgång, samtidigt som sociala relationer blivit allt viktigare på arbetsplatsen. Syftet med uppsatsen var att undersöka sambanden mellan självledarskap, socialt stöToday’s modern workplace is one of constant change, which continuously places new demands on both individuals and organizations. The need for engaged employees with the ability to develop and lead themselves is a prerequisite for success, all the while social relationships have become increasingly more important in the workplace. The purpose of this paper was to investigate the relationship betwee

An assessment of circular economy measures in the construction value chain for offshore wind turbines

The construction sector is responsible for high energy consumption and large emissions of carbon dioxide, which is strongly linked to building materials. Within the European Union, the construction sector generates more than a third of all waste and circular economy is considered as a suitable approach to tackle these challenges. Furthermore, the need for renewable energy sources has increased, wi

Polycykliska aromatiska kolväten i Hanöbuktens kustnära sediment - en sedimentologisk undersökning av vikar i närhet av pappersbruk

Att Östersjöns tillstånd är ur balans har sedan länge varit ett faktum. Hanöbukten, ett havsområde som sträcker sig förbi Listerlandet i norr till Simrishamn i söder, har varit föremål för diskussioner om och observationer av minskat bestånd av kustnära fisk, ökad frekvens på sårskador på fisk och att vattnet emellanåt varit illaluktande och brunaktig. Undersökningar av miljöföroreningar har utförThe Baltic Seas imbalanced state has long been a recognized fact. Hanö Bay, a marine area stretching from Listerlandet in the north to Simrishamn in the south, has been subject of discussions and observations regarding declining populations of coastal fish, increased frequency of fish injuries and occasional foul-smelling and brownish water. Environmental pollution investigations have been conduct

Rebuilding War-torn Nations: The Lessons of the Marshall Plan on Postwar Economic Recovery

What factors contributed to the success of the Marshall Plan, and how did it impact postwar economic recovery and long-term development of Europe’s former Western bloc nations? What lessons can be learned from the Marshall Plan, and how can these lessons be applied to contemporary aid programmes for war-torn nations, such as Ukraine? Using a qualitative approach, analysing published research, the

The influence of digital platforms in competition law: an accepted or imposed violation of the law?

The GAFAM (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft) play an important role in our daily lives as they are always collecting intangible assets, data, and are competing for consumers attention. These platforms arose, grew faster than their competitors and strengthened their position to a point where they clearly dominate the market, occupying almost monopolistic positions. Their power and s

Control Aid Implementation -Modelling and simulation of triple extruder-

In the production of their High Voltage Direct Current Cables (HVDC) and High Voltage Alternating Current Cables (HVAC), NKT uses triple extruders to create layers of insulation and semi-conduction. A model to predict the effect of extruder inputs on the cable’s insulation and semi-conducting layers has been created and trained to predict the extruder in discrete time. The project developed a deep

Copula approach to fitting bivariate time series

We apply the GARCH-copula method to estimate Value at Risk (VaR) for European and Stockholm stock indices. First, marginal distributions are estimated by the ARMA-GARCH model with normal, Student-t, and skewed t distributions. Then we investigate the tails of innovations of ARMA-GARCH models using the Peaks over thresholds method and find that the distributions of stock returns are asymmetric

On the Carbon Border: The Western Balkans and the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism

I maj 2023 antogs en viktig del av EU:s nya klimatpolicy, en mekanism för koldioxidjustering vid gränsen. Syftet med mekanismen är att förhindra koldioxidläckage, med andra ord se till att EU:s höjda klimatambitioner inte leder till att utsläpp flyttas utanför EU i stället för att minska totalt sett. EU vill säkerställa likvärdig koldioxidprissättning för importerade och inhemska produkter. MekaniIn May 2023, the EU adopted a crucial part of their updated climate policy, the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). This thesis poses questions about how this novel legislation affects the EUs South-Eastern neighbours, the Western Balkans (WB). The relevance for applied climate change strategies lies in the policy-oriented approach to a new type of international climate policy. Previous res
