Abstract:
The main species of Brazilian forestry is Eucalyptus, this specie is adapted to our soil and climatic conditions, also we have hybrids and clones ideally suited for different timber uses and the silvicultural treatments are well know. The experiment was set up with nursery substrate (NS) and mixtures of NS with biochar (BC) at 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100% to evaluate the seedling production of Eucaliptussp. clones VM01 and I144. Stem diameter, height, number of sheets, fresh and dry weight of roots and shoots and Dickson index were evaluated.The BC did not improve seedling growth compared to NS, but ratios below to 10% should be considered for this purpose

Thesis (MScEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2011.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Increasing oil prices along with the climate change threat have forced governments, society and the energy sector to consider alternative fuels. Biofuel presents itself as a suitable replacement and has received much attention over recent years. Thermochemical conversion processes such as pyrolysis is a topic of interest for conversion of cheap agricultural wastes into clean energy and valuable products. Fast pyrolysis of biomass is one of the promising technologies for converting biomass into liquid fuels and regarded as a promising feedstock to replace petroleum fuels. Corn residues, corn cob and corn stover, are some of the largest agricultural waste types in South Africa amounting to 8 900 thousand metric tonnes annually (1.7% of world corn production) (Nation Master, 2005). This study looked at the pyrolysis kinetics, the characterisation and quality of by-products from fast pyrolysis of the corn residues and the upgrading of bio-oil. The first objective was to characterise the physical and chemical properties of corn residues in order to determine the suitability of these feedstocks for pyrolytic purposes. Secondly, a study was carried out to obtain the reaction kinetic information and to characterise the behaviour of corn residues during thermal decomposition. The knowledge of biomass pyrolysis kinetics is of importance in the design and optimisation of pyrolytic reactors. Fast pyrolysis experiments were carried out in 2 different reactors: a Lurgi twin screw reactor and a bubbling fluidised bed reactor. The product yields and quality were compared for different types of reactors and biomasses. Finally, a preliminary study on the upgrading of bio-oil to remove the excess water and organics inorder to improve the quality of this liquid fuel was performed. Corn residues biomass are potential thermochemical feedstocks, with the following properties (carbon 50.2 wt. %, hydrogen 5.9 wt. % and Higher heating value 19.14 MJ/kg) for corn cob and (carbon 48.9 wt. %, hydrogen 6.01 wt. % and Higher heating value 18.06 MJ/kg) for corn stover. Corn cobs and corn stover contained very low amounts of nitrogen (0.41-0.57 wt. %) and sulphur (0.03-0.05 wt. %) compared with coal (nitrogen 0.8-1.9 wt. % and sulphur 0.7-1.2 wt. %), making them emit less sulphur oxides than when burning fossil fuels. The corn residues showed three distinct stages in the thermal decomposition process, with peak temperature of pyrolysis shifting to a higher value as the heating rate increased. The activation energies (E) for corn residues, obtained by the application of an iso-conversional method from thermogravimetric tests were in the range of 220 to 270 kJ/mol. The products obtained from fast pyrolysis of corn residues were bio-oil, biochar, water and gas. Higher bio-oil yields were produced from fast pyrolysis of corn residues in a bubbling fluidised bed reactor (47.8 to 51.2 wt. %, dry ash-free) than in a Lurgi twin screw reactor (35.5 to 37 wt. %, dry ash-free). Corn cobs produced higher bio-oil yields than corn stover in both types of reactors. At the optimised operating temperature of 500-530 °C, higher biochar yields were obtained from corn stover than corn cobs in both types of reactors. There were no major differences in the chemical and physical properties of bio-oil produced from the two types of reactors. The biochar properties showed some variation in heating values, carbon content and ash content for the different biomasses. The fast pyrolysis of corn residues produced energy products, bio-oil (Higher heating value = 18.7-25.3 MJ/kg) and biochar (Higher heating value = 19.8-29.3 MJ/kg) comparable with coal (Higher heating value = 16.2-25.9 MJ/kg). The bio-oils produced had some undesirable properties for its application such as acidic (pH 3.8 to 4.3) and high water content (21.3 to 30.5 wt. %). The bio-oil upgrading method (evaporation) increased the heating value and viscosity by removal of light hydrocarbons and water. The corn residues biochar produced had a BET Brynauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) surface area of 96.7 to 158.8 m2/g making it suitable for upgrading for the manufacture of adsorbents. The gas products from fast pyrolysis were analysed by gas chromatography (GC) as CO2, CO, H2, CH4, C2H4, C2H6, C3H8 and C5+ hydrocarbons. The gases had CO2 and CO of more than 80% (v/V) and low heating values (8.82-8.86 MJ/kg).<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die styging in olie pryse asook dreigende klimaatsveranderinge het daartoe gelei dat regerings, die samelewing asook die energie sektor alternatiewe energiebronne oorweeg. Biobrandstof as alternatiewe energiebron het in die afgope paar jaar redelik aftrek gekry. Termochemiese omskakelingsprosesse soos pirolise word oorweeg vir die omskakeling van goedkoop landbou afval na groen energie en waardevolle produkte. Snel piroliese van biomassa is een van die mees belowende tegnologië vir die omskakeling van biomassa na vloeibare brandstof en word tans gereken as ’n belowende kandidaat om petroleum brandstof te vervang. Mielieafval, stronke en strooi vorm ’n reuse deel van die Suid Afrikaanse landbou afval. Ongeveer 8900 duisend metrieke ton afval word jaarliks geproduseer wat optel na ongeveer 1.7% van die wêreld se mielie produksie uitmaak (Nation Master, 2005). Hierdie studie het gekk na die kinetika van piroliese, die karakterisering en kwaliteit van by-produkte van snel piroliese afkomstig van mielie-afval asook die opgradering van biobrandstof. Die eerste mikpunt was om die fisiese en chemiese karakteristieke van mielie-afval te bepaal om sodoende die geskiktheid van hierdie afval vir die gebruik tydens piroliese te bepaal. Tweendens is ’n kinetiese studie onderneem om reaksie parameters te bepaal asook die gedrag tydens termiese ontbinding waar te neem. Kennis van die piroliese kinetika van biomassa is van belang juis tydens die ontwerp en optimering van piroliese reaktore. Snel piroliese ekspermente is uitgevoer met behulp van twee verskillende reaktore: ’n Lurgi twee skroef reaktor en ’n borrelende gefluidiseerde-bed reaktor. Die produk opbrengs en kwaliteit is vergelyk. Eindelik is ’n voorlopige studie oor die opgradering van bio-olie uitgevoer deur te kyk na die verwydering van oortollige water en organiese materiaal om die kwaliteit van hierdie vloeibare brandstof te verbeter. Biomassa afkomstig van mielie-afval is ’n potensiële termochemiese voerbron met die volgende kenmerke: mielie stronke- (C - 50.21 massa %, H – 5.9 massa %, HHV – 19.14 MJ/kg); mielie strooi – (C – 48.9 massa %, H – 6.01 massa %, HHV – 18.06 MJ/kg). Beide van hierdie materiale bevat lae hoeveelhede N (0.41-0.57 massa %) and S (0.03-0.05 massa %) in vergelyking met steenkool N (0.8-1.9 massa %) and S (0.7-1.2 massa %). Dit beteken dat hieride bronne van biomassa laer konsentrasies van swael oksiedes vrystel in vergelyking met fossielbrandstowwe. Drie kenmerkende stadia is waargeneem tydens die termiese afbraak van mielie-afval, met die temperatuur piek van piroliese wat skuif na ’n hoër temperatuur soos die verhittingswaarde toeneem. Die waargenome aktiveringsenergie (E) van mielie-afval bereken met behulp van die iso-omskakelings metode van TGA toetse was in die bestek: 220 tot 270 kJ/mol. Die produkte verkry deur Snel Piroliese van mielie-afval was bio-olie, bio-kool en gas. ’n Hoër opbrengs van bio-olie is behaal tydens Snel Piroliese van mielie-afval in die borrelende gefluidiseerde-bed reakctor (47.8 na 51.2 massa %, droog as-vry) in vergelyking met die Lurgi twee skroef reakctor (35.5 na 37 massa %, droog as-vry). Mielie stronke sorg vir ’n hoër opbrengs van bio-olie as mielie strooi in beide reaktore. By die optimum bedryfskondisies is daar in beide reaktor ’n hoër bio-kool opbrengs verkry van mielie stingels teenoor mielie stronke. Geen aansienlike verskille is gevind in die chemise en fisiese kenmerke van van die bio-olie wat geproduseer is in die twee reaktore nie. Daar is wel variasie getoon in die bio-kool kenmerkte van die verskillende Snel Piroliese prosesse. Snel piroliese van mielie-afval lewer energie produkte, bio-olie (HVW = 18.7-25.3MJ/kg) en bio-kool (HVW = 19.8-29.3 MJ/kg) vergelykbaar met steenkool (HVW = 16.2-25.9 MJ/kg). Die bio-olies geproduseer het sommige ongewenste kenmerke getoon byvoorbeeld suurheid (pH 3.8-4.3) asook hoë water inhoud (21.3 – 30.5 massa %). Die metode (indamping) wat gebruik is vir die opgradering van bio-olie het gelei tot die verbetering van die verhittingswaarde asook die toename in viskositeit deur die verwydering van ligte koolwaterstowwe en water. Die mielie-afval bio-kool toon ’n BET (Brunauer-Emmet-Teller) oppervlakte area van 96.7-158.8 m2/g wat dit toepaslik maak as grondstof vir absorbante. The gas geproduseer tydens Snel Piroliese is geanaliseer met behulp van gas chromotografie (GC) as CO2, CO, H2, CH4, C2H4, C2H6, C3H8 and C5+ koolwaterstowwe. Die vlak van CO2 en CO het 80% (v/V) oorskry en met lae verhittingswaardes (8.82-8.86 MJ/kg).

Abstract:
Uppsatsen är grundad på två aktuella mattrender. Den första är Slow Food som grundades av Carlo Petrini i strävan efter att alla råvaror skall framställas på ett sätt som inte skadar naturen, djurens välmående samt människans egen hälsa. Den andra är Fast Food, en bransch som istället handlar om den världsliga ekonomin där man vill producera olika produkter snabbare och billigare. Syftet med denna studie är att ge läsaren en inblick i Slow Food rörelsen kontra Fast Food branschen och ställa dem mot varandra ur ett miljöperspektiv. Uppsatsen är en litteraturbaserad studie där fyra artiklar utgör grunden för resultatet. Artiklarna visar de två trenderna på ett mer djupgående sätt genom positiva samt negativa aspekter utifrån ett miljöperspektiv. Massproduktionen av matvaror är något som idag tar över världen allt mer. Varor som odlas lokalt och på ett sätt som inte skadar djur och natur är något som Slow Food rörelsen försöker få in bland hemmen. Baksidan av Slow Food är att det inte finns ekonomiska resurser för att kunna föda världens befolkning på detta sätt. Fast Food är något som idag anses vara det bestående sättet att i framtiden odla och framställa mat, fast det på lång sikt kommer att förstöra vår miljö genom odlingstekniker och transporter.<br>B-uppsatser

Abstract:
Tidigare forskning pekar på att medarbetare bland annat motiveras av balans mellan insats och belöning, förväntningar som är förenliga med organisationens visioner och instrumentell motivation. Åsikterna i forskningen skiljer sig åt i hur anställningsform påverkar graden av arbetstillfredsställelse. Syftet med studien var att, genom en kvantitativ metod, undersöka graden av arbetsmotivation hos lagermedarbetare. Detta utifrån Herzbergs hygien- och motivationsfaktorer. På platsen för studien hade sjukfrånvaron de senare åren ökat och organisationen var under en implementeringsfas av Lean production. Vidare diskuteras kring anställningsvillkors betydelse för motivation. Resultatet i studien visade att motivationen var högst bland de yngre medarbetarna som var tillfälligt anställda. Genom de öppna frågorna i enkäten framkom att arbetstiderna var en besvärande faktor på arbetsplatsen och att arbetskamrater ansågs som en positiv faktor. Organisationen AB bör öka dess autonomi över arbetstider och bör visa på utvecklingsmöjligheter för medarbetarna.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Nuclear Science and Engineering, 2007.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 118-121).<br>Rising natural gas prices and growing concern over CO₂ emissions have intensified interest in alternative methods for producing hydrogen. Nuclear energy can be used to produce hydrogen through thermochemical and/or electrochemical processes. This thesis investigates the feasibility of high temperature steam electrolysis (HTSE) coupled with an advanced gas-cooled fast reactor (GFR) utilizing supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO₂) as the coolant. The reasons for selecting this particular reactor include fast reactor uranium resource utilization benefits, lower reactor outlet temperatures than helium-cooled reactors which ameliorate materials problems, and reduced power conversion system costs. High temperature steam electrolysis can be performed at conditions of 8500C and atmospheric pressure. However, compression of the hydrogen for pumping through pipes is unnecessary if electrolysis takes place at around 6 MPa. The reactor coolant at 6500C is used to heat the steam up to temperatures ranging between 2500C and 3500C, and the remaining heat is provided by thermal recuperation from product hydrogen and oxygen. Several different methods for integrating the hydrogen production HTSE plant with the GFR were investigated. The two most promising methods are discussed in more detail: extracting coolant from the power conversion system (PCS) turbine exhaust to boil water, and extracting coolant directly from the reactor using separate water boiler (WB) loops. Both methods have comparable thermal to electricity efficiencies (-43%) at 6500C. This relates to an overall hydrogen production efficiency of about 47%. The approach which utilizes separate WB loops has the added advantage of being able to provide emergency cooling to the reactor, and also the benefit of not interfering with the operation of the PCS.<br>(cont.) This makes the separate WB loop integration method a more desirable scheme for hydrogen production using HTSE. The HTSE electrolysis unit adopted for the present analysis was designed by Ceramatec in coordination with INL. In this unit the steam flows into an electrolytic cell. It is separated by electron flow from a nickel-zirconium cathode to a strontium-doped lanthanum manganite anode. The optimal conditions for stack operation have been found by INL using various modeling and experimental techniques. These conditions include a 10% by volume flow of hydrogen in the feed, a stack operating temperature of 8000C, and an operating voltage of 1.2 V. The GFR integrated with the HTSE plant via separate water boiler loops was modeled in this work using the chemical engineering code ASPEN. The results of this model were benchmarked against the Idaho National Lab (INL) process, modeled using HYSIS. Both models predict a hydrogen production rate of -10.2 kg/sec (+ 0.2 kg/sec) for a 600 MWth reactor with an overall efficiency ranging between 47%-50%. The highly recuperated HTSE plant developed for the GFR can in principle be used in conjunction with a variety of other nuclear reactors, without requiring high reactor coolant outlet temperatures.<br>by Matthew J.

Abstract:
Biofuels have been identified as one of several GHG emission strategies to reduce the use of fossil fuels in the transport sector. Fast pyrolysis of biomass is one approach to producing second generation biofuels. The bio-oil product of fast pyrolysis can be upgraded into essential gasoline and diesel range products with conventional refinery technologies. Thus, it is important to assess their techno- economic and environmental performance at an early stage prior to commercialisation. This research was conducted with the goal of evaluating and comparing the techno-economic and environmental viability of the production of biofuels from fast pyrolysis of biomass and upgrading of bio-oil via two refinery technologies, viz. hydroprocessing and zeolite cracking. In order to achieve this aim, process models of fast pyrolysis of biomass and bio-oil upgrading via hydroprocessing and zeolite cracking were developed. The fast pyrolysis model was based on multi-step kinetic models. In addition, lumped kinetic models of the hydrodeoxygenation reactions of bio-oil were implemented. The models were verified against experimental measurements with good prediction and formed the foundation for the development of a 72 t/day fast pyrolysis plant model in Aspen Plus®. Several strategies were proposed for the two pathways to enhance energy efficiency and profitability. All in all, the results revealed that the hydroprocessing route is 16% more efficient than the zeolite cracking pathway. Moreover, the hydroprocessing route resulted in a minimum fuel selling price of 15% lower than that from the zeolite cracking pathway. Sensitivity analysis revealed that the techno-economic and environmental performance of the both pathways depends on several process, economic and environmental parameters. In particular, biofuel yield, operating cost and income tax were identified as the most sensitive techno-economic parameters, while changes in nitrogen feed gas to the pyrolysis reactor and fuel yield had the most environmental impact. It was concluded that hydroprocessing is a more suitable upgrading pathway than zeolite cracking in terms of economic viability, energy efficiency, and GHG emissions per energy content of fuel produced.

<p>Sammanfattning</p><p>Segerström Automotive tillverkar plåtkomponenter till kunder som Scania, Stiga och Volvo. Företaget befinner sig i en expansiv fas, men konkurrensen på marknaden är hård och kraven på god kvalitet höga. Företaget är kvalitets- och miljöcertifierat. Som del i förbättrings- och kvalitetsarbetet har en nystart av verksamhetens produktionssystem, SAPS (Segerström Automotive Production System), skett. Ett av företagets mål för de närmsta åren är att minska antalet externa reklamationer. Eftersom detta inte skett i önskad takt ansågs en utredning över vad som orsakat antalet reklamationer nödvändig. Examensarbetet har således inriktats mot att göra en nulägesanalys av kvalitetsarbetet inom verksamheten, med utgångspunkt i reklamationshanteringen, samt att påvisa eventuella förbättringsområden. Både kvalitativa och kvantitativa metoder har använts; så som intervjuer, insamling av sekundär och primärdata samt observationer. Teoridelens tyngdpunkt ligger i teorier inom lean production och Total Quality Management.</p><p>En avvikelse uppstår när en produkt ej uppfyller kundens behov. En reklamation är ett sätt att kommunicera en avvikelse. De externa reklamationerna mot Segerström visade sig ofta vara symtom på interna avvikelser. Då det idag saknas ett system för interna reklamationer fångas dessa inte alltid upp. Ofta saknas tid och resurser för att genomföra en djupare orsaksanalys och vidta åtgärder. Felkällan elimineras inte alltid och samma fel återkommer. Delar av den upplevda resursbristen skulle kunna lösas genom en organisatorisk förändring, där tydliga roller för förbättrings- och kvalitetsarbete inom produktionen tas fram.</p><p>Företaget har redan en mängd olika dokument och metoder för kvalitets- och förbättringsarbete, men dessa tycks inte ha förankrats i verksamheten i tillräcklig utsträckning. Utmaningen för företaget är att välja vilka dokument och metoder som skall användas samt att sedan förverkliga dessa. Rutiner bör skapas för att knyta ihop de olika delarna, metoderna och dokumenten. Att standardisera och dokumentera fler av de repetitiva aktiviteterna, identifiera interna kunder, analysera vart i kedjan detaljer bör mätas, etablera kommunikationsforum, utse kvalitetsansvariga i produktionen, utbilda personal inom kvalitetsområdet, ta fram belöningssystem, knyta kostnader direkt till kvalitetsrelaterade ärenden samt att analysera hur information om kvalitet kan samlas in och spridas till berörd personal är områden som företaget rekommenderas att titta närmare på.</p><p>Viktigt är att ledningen ger nödvändiga resurser, skapar en struktur att utgå ifrån samt följer upp kvalitetsarbetet.

The company is expanding, but the competitiveness and the quality requirements on the market are high. The company is quality certified. As part of the work with quality and improvements Segerström Automotive Production System, SAPS, was restarted during the spring 2007. One of the goals for the organization is to decrease the number of external reclamations. To be able to reach the goal a study of what have caused the stagnation of the number of reclamations towards the company was considered as necessary. Thus the thesis has been focused on analyzing the quality work within the organization, with its core in the reclamation handling. Areas for improvements have also been discussed. Both qualitative and quantitative methods have been used; for example interviews, data gathering and observations. The main theories used come from lean production and Total Quality Management.</p><p>A deviation occurs when a product does not meet the customer requirements. Reclamations communicate a deviation. It was found that the external reclamations towards Segerström often were symptoms of internal deviations. Because there is no system for internal reclamations the deviations that are found internally rarely lead to any actions. There is often a lack of time and resources dedicated to analyze the root cause and to take necessary actions to eliminate them; the failure modes are repeated. Parts of the lack of resources could be solved by an organizational change, where clear roles and responsibilities within the fields of quality and improvements were specified.</p><p>The company already has a number of different documents and methods to work with quality and improvements, but those are not implemented and used in a necessary extent. The challenge for Segerström is to choose which documents and methods to use and how to implement them. Routines should be created to link the different parts, methods and documents. To standardize and document more of the repetitive activities, identify internal customers, analyze where in the chain details should be measured, establish channels for communication, have quality responsible persons at the work stations in the production, educate the personnel in quality, create a system for recognition and rewards, document costs of quality and analyze how to gather and spread information about quality to the personnel are areas as the company should look closer into.</p><p>It is important that the leaders of the company give the resources necessary, builds a structure to work from and follow up the work. To succeed quality has to be prioritized within the whole organization.</p>

Abstract:
Long cycle times in semiconductor manufacturing represent an increasing challenge for the industry and lead to a growing need of break-through approaches to reduce it. Small lot sizes and the conversion of batch processes to mini-batch or single-wafer processes are widely regarded as a promising means for a step-wise cycle time reduction. Our analysis with discrete-event simulation and queueing theory shows that small lot size and the replacement of batch tools with mini-batch or single wafer tools are beneficial but lot size reduction lacks persuasive effectiveness if reduced by more than half. Because the results are not completely convincing, we develop a new semiconductor tool type that further reduces cycle time by lot streaming leveraging the lot size reduction efforts. We show that this combined approach can lead to a cycle time reduction of more than 80%.

Abstract:
The Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry consists of a large part of our daily purchases making it to an important industry for the society. Within every industry, operational control and supply chains are important success factors regarding efficiency and profitability. Lately, much attention towards sustainability within the industry has been given, due to environmental and to ethical concerns. The whole industry will be forced to undergo major changes in order to remain and to become sustainable. Therefore, operational control and supply chains need to be effective and sustainable in order to sustain this transformation. In this project, an investigation regarding if Lean production and sustainable supply chains can apply to the FMCG industry is conducted. Difficulties with achieving levelled production and factors to attend to in order to become sustainable will be addressed. A literature review about Lean management and sustainable supply chains will be presented. Furthermore, two case studies will be conducted at two beverage companies where a comparison between theory and reality will be conducted. We found that many of the Toyota Production System (TPS) principles can be hard to implement in the FMCG industry. Therefore, Lean production is not easily obtained within the FMCG industry. Specifically, we found that beverage companies have difficulties obtaining levelled production and implementing production levelling tools suggested in TPS. We found that measures conducted in order to level production mainly focus on optimization of internal processes and shortening of lead times upstream. Work to obtain control over demand management has been done on order to facilitate levelling of the production. Therefore, work to be conducted in order accomplish demand managementis suggested as a recommendation in this report. This recommendation contains factors such as: order placement, lead times pricing and campaigns. Several factors suggested in Sustainable Supply Chain Management literature in order to obtain sustainable supplychains were found in our case studies. We found that information exchange between customer and producer is not optimal. Furthermore, we found that high standards regarding suppliers generally result in that only large suppliers can meet these standards. Thus, making it harder to influence aspects regarding sustainability among suppliers. In closing, the FMCG industry have potential to achieve sustainable supply chains, but some factors remain to be improved.<br>Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industrin utgör de produkter som konsumeras på daglig basis, vilket gör den till en viktig industri för konsumtionssamhället i stort. Inom alla industrier utgör styrning av interna processer och försörjningskedjor viktiga framgångsfaktorer gällandes effektivitet och lönsamhet. Senaste tiden har det riktats mycket uppmärksamhet mot hållbarhets- och etiska aspekter inom hela industrin. Många intressenter menar på att alla industrier måste ändras för att industrin som helhet ska överleva och bli hållbar. Därför måste interna processer och försörjningskedjor anpassas för att stödja transformationen mot hållbarhet. I detta projekt undersöks ifall Lean produktion och hållbara försörjningskedjor kan anpassas till FMCG industrin. Vi kommer särskilt diskutera de svårigheter som finns med att uppnå utjämnat produktionsflöde och faktorer som är viktiga att åtgärda för att erhålla hållbarhet inom förädlingskedjan. En litteraturstudie kring Lean och hållbara försörjningskedjor kommer att utföras. Vidare kommer två fallstudier på två dryckesföretag att genomföras där en jämförelse mellan teori och verklighet kommer ligga tillgrund för våra slutsatser. De upptäckter vi gjorde under arbetet var att många av de fundamentala Lean-principer(TPS) som Toyota introducerar är svåra att uppnå inom FMCG-industrin. Mer specifikt fann vi i våra fallstudier att uppnå ett jämnt produktionsflöde tillhör en av de största svårigheterna inom dryckesindustrin. Vi upptäckte att det arbete som utförts för att uppnå ett jämnt produktionsflöde mestadels fokuserade på att förbättra interna processer och ledtider uppströms i försörjningskedajan. Arbete kring att kontrollera efterfrågan i syfte att utjämna produktionen har gjorts. I rapporten föreslås områden att undersöka för att bättre styra efterfrågan i form av en rekommendation. Denna rekomendation innehåller faktorer som: orderingång, prisättning av leverans och kampanjer. Flertalet av de hållbarhetsfaktorer som läggs fram i litteraturen kring hur man erhåller hållbara försörjningskedjor återfanns i våra fallstudier. Vi fann att faktorer som informationsutbyte mellan kund och producent inte är optimalt. Vidare utgör höga krav på leverantörer att generellt sett stora leverantörer blir de enda som möter uppsatta krav. Detta försvårar möjligheter att påverka leverantören. I detta fall, påverkan kring hållbarhetsaspekter. FMCG industrin har stora möjligheter att erhålla hållbara försörjningskedjor, men några faktorer återstår att förbättra. Dessa faktorer kommer diskuteras i rapporten.
