Abstract:
Ett av världens största miljöproblem är plastnedskräpning. På många platser kan spår av mänsklig närvaro ses i form av skräp av plast. År 2011 tillverkades det 280 miljoner ton plast, det motsvarar ungefär 28 000 Eiffeltorn. I Sverige förbrukades år 2010 ungefär 880 000 ton plast. I Asien produceras ungefär 50 % av all världens plast och Kina står för cirka hälften av detta. Nordamerika och Europa står för cirka 40 % av världens plastproduktion. Resterande produktion av plast är fördelat på Afrika och Sydamerika. Kommersiell plast är uppbyggd av små enheter kallade

Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to investigate the relationship between the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) measurement and volatile fatty acid (VFA) production in the acid-phase anaerobic digestion process under different conditions of temperature and residence time. Two identical anaerobic digesters were operated while VFAs, SCOD, VSS, alkalinity, ORP and pH were measured. In digester 1, VFA production of 5,556 mg/L was generated with an ORP of -315 mv at a 10 day SRT; while 5,400 mg/L of VFA with an ORP of -389 mv was recorded in digester 2. The SRT was adjusted at 5, 8, 10, 12 and 15

pH control is a tool to improve some aspects of Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal (EBPR) process. Filipe et al (2001a, 2001b, and 2001c) found strong evidence that the stability of EBPR systems can be improved by increasing the pH of the anaerobic zone, thereby creating conditions where phosphorus-accumulating organisms (PAOs) are able to take up acetate faster than glycogen-accumulating organisms (GAOs). They explained this observation by comparing the growth rate of phosphorus-accumulating organisms (PAOs) and glycogen-accumulating organisms (GAOs) and found that pH has little effect on

These residues can be treated and recovered through anaerobic digestion processes, thereby reducing their pollutant content and, at the same time, producing high value-products such as volatile fatty acids (VFA). These compounds resulting from acidogenic fermentation are the preferred carbon sources for the production of added-value products, namely polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) or bioenergy, in the form of methane or hydrogen.

Abstract:
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are a family of biodegradable polyesters naturally synthesised by some bacteria and archaea. PHA have high industrial value as bioplastics for packaging and biomedical applications. However, their broader use is hindered by high production costs and uncontrolled variation of polymer properties. The extreme halophile Haloferax mediterranei shows bioprocess advantages that can be exploited for the low cost production of the PHA copolymer Poly(3-hydroxbutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalterate) (PHBV). The focus of this thesis is to identify process variables responsible for the u

A tal proposito, i più utilizzati sono i trasduttori piezoelettrici, i quali trovano un largo impiego anche nell'ambito biomedico. Le attrezzature commerciali utilizzate in questo campo allo stato dell'arte hanno grande ingombro, costi elevati e un alto voltaggio. Tuttavia, tramite un'analisi prelimina

Vaccination constitutes one of the most efficient and cost-effective methods of promoting global health. Nevertheless, few vaccines are fully effective, for manifold reasons ranging from intrinsic limitations to more contingent shortcomings related, e.g., to cold chain transport, handling and storage. In this context, peptide-based vaccines that consist of a fully synthetic approach mimicking B-and T-cell epitopes have emerged as an attractive alternative to overcome many such issues. Unfortunately, short peptides have generally been related to low immunogenicity and weak protection. In this t
