The issue of pharmaceutical pollution has recently gained attention on the international political agenda as several actors have raised concern for its negative impact on ecosystems, human health, and livelihoods in emerging economies where an increasing share of the pharmaceutical production is located due to the cheaper labor and less stringent environmental regulations. In 2019, the OECD publis

Forced air convection systems are the most preferred design of choice in many of the industrial-scale convection ovens. In this study, experimental investigation on convective heat transfer and mass transfer within a forced air convection oven was performed at different oven temperatures (100℃, 110℃ and 120℃) and at flow velocity (2 m/s, 3 m/s and 4 m/s) using potato slices (10*10*60 mm) as model

Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, a polar ocean specialist, thrives in the Antarctic severe physical conditions. The krill life cycle consists of strategies that have enabled and supported the species’ dominance of the Antarctic Ocean. Sea Ice extent and duration creates condition that are crucial for survival of the Furcilia larvae. The species has flexibility to food resources and is omnivorou

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that plays a major role in climate change. Significant uncertainty exists in the estimates of emissions from natural methane sources. This uncertainty in data is one of the primary scientific challenges in climate model. Geological seepage considered as the second largest natural source of methane after wetlands and today is recognized as a major contributor to a

Objective: Previous research using personality traits to predict life outcomes has typically utilized the Big Five factors and, occasionally, their facets. However, recent research suggests that using items (reflecting personality nuances) can account for greater predictive variance. The present study examines the predictive validity of the different levels of the personality trait hierarchy (fact

In response to the pressing need to address climate change and reduce global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, this study implemented Gaussian Mixture Models Clustering to detect the levels of GHG emissions and related socio-economic factors in 174 countries. To handle the panel data, Principal Component Analysis was conducted to achieve dimension reduction. Based on the algorithm, countries were gr

At Hagforstvätten a dry-cleaning facility operated 1970 – 1993 and leached huge amounts of tetrachloroethene (PCE) to soil and groundwater. This study was conducted at the contaminated site and focused on applying the geophysical methods Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) and Induced Polarization (IP) to investigate if it was possible to locate source zone, degradation zones and groundwater p

60 00 cancerfall rapporteras in varje år till socialstyrelsen men där numera fler än hälften botas. Detta eftersom vi blir skickligare inom området och nya behandlingstekniker utvecklas. Rektalcancer, även kallat ändtarmscancer är en cancerform som ökat under de senaste decennierna. Behandling av patienter med rektalcancer varierar beroende på var och i vilket stadie tumören befinner sig i. Oftast

Abstract Background: Person-centered care is increasingly regarded as being synonymous with best quality care. However, the concept and its precise meaning is a subject of debate, and reliable and valid measurement tools are few. This study is a part of a larger project named KUPA who´s main aim is to improve palliative care and person centeredness for elders living in nursing homes in two souther

5G New Radio is the next generation of mobile networks and it comes with promises of ultra-high speeds, ultra-high reliability and ultra-low latency. This has posed a challenge for the engineers entrusted with the task of finding solutions which could fulfil the specification, and as a result, some promising areas have received increased attention in recent years. Signal processing techniques like

Cancer immunotherapies activate the immune system to overcome tumor resistance and restore the antitumor immune response, however, excessive activation of the immune system may also affect normal tissues and organs and cause immune-related adverse events (irAEs) of varying severity. Current in vitro assays used for testing and predicting of irAEs induced by immunotherapeutics are associated with s

The academic interest in remote work has drastically increased over recent years, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Existing studies have proven that remote work has advantages and disadvantages for employers and employees. However, little is known about the influence of remote work and the relevant factors in the context of newcomers and their organizational socialization. Building on th

Denna masteruppstats ämnar utröna lönsamheten och de faktorer som påverkar lönsamheten vid ingåendet av en kort position i finansiella derivat på den nordiska elmarknaden samtidigt som motsvarade position anskaffas genom handel på Nord Pools day-ahead (DA) marknad och via så kallade pay-as-produce Power Purchase Agreements (PPA), samt genom tillämpandet av batterilager för att mitigera effekterna This master’s thesis aims to assess the profitability and the factors impacting the profitability of entering a short position in financial derivative contracts on the Nordic power market while procuring electricity through a pay-as-produced power purchase contract and on the day-ahead (DA) market, simultaneously the strategy utilizes a battery storage system to mitigate the effects of price spike

An important factor in preventing food waste is the ability to provide a product with a package according to its needs. The packaging material, in turn, needs to be recyclable in order to contribute to a circular use of materials rather than becoming waste. The aim of this thesis is to examine the difference between the current and future packaging material of coffee produced by Zoégas. The curren

Strong narrowband interference can significantly degrade the sensitivity of wideband receivers by driving front-end circuitry into nonlinear operation. This thesis presents the design, fabrication, and measurement of a 2 – 4.4 GHz electrically tunable varactor-based bandstop filter that can follow and block such narrowband interference before it causes problems in the receiver. It was developed us

The premise of this bachelor’s thesis is that Swedish Early Childhood Education is underrepresented in social science research, despite being governed by political objectives and constituting one of the most central welfare institutions in Swedish society. The empirical material consists of four Swedish Government Official Reports published between 1972 and 2020. Using a qualitative content analys

Acoustophoresis enables label-free separation of particles and cells in microfluidic sys- tems, but systematic methods for analysing and comparing separation behaviour re- main limited. In this thesis, a workflow based on the mobility ratio was evaluated as an experimental framework for characterising acoustophoretic separations, using flow cytometry as the analytical tool. Separation experiments

Battery electric trucks and autonomous driving systems are each approaching commercial viability for long-haul freight. Current development treats these technologies as independent improvements to diesel operations. This thesis examines the operational and economic synergies that emerge when autonomy and Megawatt Charging System infrastructure are deployed together rather than in isolation. The a

Aortic valve stenosis is a common congenital heart defect among children. In affected patients, the normal tricuspid valve structure is malformed into a bicuspid valve structure due to a fusion at one commissure. A common treatment is transcatheter balloon valvuloplasty, where a balloon is inserted through the aortic valve and inflated to mechanically tear the fused region, restoring a tricuspid s
