Detta projekt avsåg att optimera ett automatiskt backspolande filter för emulsionspolymerer på the Dow Chemical Companys anläggning i Landskrona, samt att jämföra det med det befintliga påsfiltersystemet. Då filtret använder färdigprodukten för att backspola filtret fokuserade optimeringen på att minska mängden produkt som spolas ut, så kallat reject, då detta medför avfallskostnader och förlust aThis project aimed to optimize an automatic backwash filter for emulsion polymers at the Dow Chemical Company's facility in Landskrona, and to compare it with the existing cartridge filter system. Since the filter uses the finished product to backwash the filter, the optimization focused on reducing the amount of product that is flushed out, so-called reject, as this entails disposal costs and

CIP systems are critical for ensuring hygienic integrity in ultra-high temperature (UHT) food processing. However, conventional cleaning cycles are often rigidly timed and overdesigned, leading to unnecessary water, energy, and chemical use. This thesis presents a data-driven framework to evaluate and optimize the prerinse phase of UHT CIP cycles using pressure drop behavior as an alternative for

As Climate Change increases the frequency and severity of wildfires in British Columbia, communities at the Wildland Urban Interface face escalating risks. This thesis explores the challenges and opportunities of community engagement in wildfire management in the city of Kamloops, one of the most fire-prone urban areas in British Columbia. Employing a single-case study design, the research is base

Överföringen av logiska program från äldre styrsystem till nyare är ett omfattande arbete som, oavsett teknisk utveckling, fortfarande är en betydande manuell börda. Visserligen finns det verktyg som kan göra en automat-konvertering, men dessa tenderar att genomföra en 1:1-konvertering, vilket innebär att den nya logiken behåller samma föråldrade struktur och inte drar nytta av moderna funktioner The transfer of control logic and system implementations from older to newer control systems is a substantial undertaking that, despite technological advancements, remains largely a manual effort. While there are tools available that perform automatic conversions, these tend to apply a one-to-one conversion strategy. This means that the structure of the logic remains outdated and does not take adv

I uppsatsen analyseras den svenska ordningen avseende rättegångskostnader i förvaltningsprocessen utifrån ett rättighetsperspektiv, med fokus på rätten till en rättvis rättegång och förslaget i SOU 2025:111. Rätten till en rättvis rättegång kommer till uttryck i svensk rätt genom både Europakonventionen och regeringsformen. Rättigheten reglerar inte uttryckligen frågan om kostnadsfördelningen. FråIn this thesis, an analysis is conducted of the Swedish system concerning litigation costs in administrative proceedings from a rightsbased perspective, with particular focus on the right to a fair trial and the proposal presented in SOU 2025:111. The right to a fair trial is expressed in Swedish law through both the European Convention of Human Rights and the Instrument of Government. Neither pro

Havsnivåhöjningar till följd av antropogena klimatförändringar utgör en växande utmaning för folkrätten. För små östater under utveckling (SIDS) innebär stigande havsnivåer en risk för att delar av eller hela deras territorium blir obeboeliga eller permanent översvämmas. Detta aktualiserar grundläggande frågor om staters fortsatta existens enligt folkrätten. Enligt den traditionella statsläran utgSea-level rise caused by anthropogenic climate change poses an unprecedent-ed challenge to international law. For Small Island Developing States (SIDS), the prospect of partial or complete territorial inundation raises fundamental questions concerning the continued existence of States whose territory may become uninhabitable or disappear entirely. Under traditional interpretations of the Montevide

Denna uppsats behandlar gränsdragningen mellan kontraktsarbete och ÄTA-arbete i mängdreglerade entreprenader, med särskilt fokus på situationer där arbeten saknas i mängdförteckning men framgår av andra kontraktshandlingar. Analysen tar sin utgångspunkt i spänningsförhållandet mellan kompletteringsregeln i AB 04 kap. 1 § 2, enligt vilken kontraktshandlingarna ska komplettera varandra, och komplettThis thesis examines the distinction between contractual work and variation work (ÄTA-work) in quantity-regulated construction contracts, with particular focus on situations where work is specified in the contract documents but omitted from the bill of quantities. The analysis is based on the tension between the rule of complementarity in AB 04 Chapter 1 Section 2, according to which contract docu

The Mediterranean subpopulation of sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) is classified as Endangered by the IUCN, yet the western Ionian Sea, a key corridor connecting the eastern and western Mediterranean sub-populations, remains a data-poor region for cetacean monitoring. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) offers an effective approach for long-term surveillance of this deep-diving species, but la

During the summer season, many popular beaches are subjected to human disturbances by way of excessive trampling and beach cleaning. Falsterbo beach in the south of Sweden is one example of this. By making plant establishment harder and removing important habitat structures, these types of disturbances have been shown to negatively influence the vegetation of coastal habitats, reducing both biodiv

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Inflammation plays an important role in different CVD such as atherosclerosis and myocarditis. Myocarditis is characterized by immune cell infiltration in the myocardium. This can lead to fibrosis, cardiac remodeling, progression to dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure. New evidence highlights the role of immunometaboli
