At present, in potato starch industries, not only starch is extracted from the process but even proteins and fibers are recovered as they are economically valuable. Unfortunately, the process used for protein recovery can only partially recover protein from the potato fruit juice (PJ), while the reaming PJ is concentrated using an evaporator and is later on used as fertilizers. Potato starch indus

Wireless communication nowadays is playing a vital role in real-life data transmission. This communication can be machine-to-machine or human to machine communication. In each of these categories, reliability and low latency data transmission are critical factors of success transmission in case the number of devices in a certain area increases. In this thesis, I mainly investigate on smart manufac

The rights of the children : a formality or a reality? Incorporating the Convention on the Rights of the Child into Swedish law This essay investigates the arguments for incorporating the United Nation’s Convention on the Rights of the Child into Swedish law through a discourse analysis. The empirical data for the analysis consists of the Swedish Government Official Report (SOU 2016:19) on the su

Detta görs utifrån att förstå hur de förhåller sig till det borgenärsskydd som de finns där för att tillgodose. För möta uppsatsens syfte har en genomgång av reglerna i 25 kap. 13–20 a §§ aktiebolagslagen oThis thesis analyze how the company´s duty to act and the personal payment responsibility is regulated on involuntary liquidation in the Swedish Companies Act. A comparison is made to the Swedish Tax Procedure act. The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether the regulation constitutes an adequate creditor protection, based on these two acts.

I samband med att multinationella företag växt fram och fått en ökad betydelse och räckvidd i vår nu globaliserade ekonomi, har företagens sociala ansvar blivit en uppmärksammad och mycket aktuell fråga. Andra faktorer såsom klimatförändringar, mänskliga rättigheter och arbetsförhållanden har också bidragit till ökade krav på ansvar. Ett antal internationella standarder och rekommendationer på omrThe importance and reach of multinational enterprises has expanded dramatically in our now globalized economy which has led to corporate social responsibility becoming an attention-grabbing and current issue. Other factors such as climate change, human rights and labor conditions have contributed to increased demands for responsibility. A number of international standards and recommendations in th

Protection of humanitarian aid workers (HAWs) is a challenging task. There are various reports on the topic where much research seems to focus on traditional physical attacks and intentional violence against HAWs (security) rather than the accidental event risks (safety) or discussing it separately. These risks are usually defined by the organization’s security risk management holding the power in

A Peripheral Blood Film (PBF) examination with differential count (DIFF) is a common blood test, yielding quantitative and qualitative information about the blood cells of the patient important for diagnostics. The test relies on locating the monolayer, an area on the PBF slide where the cells are located in one layer. This masters thesis explores the possibilities of adopting Machine Learning (ML

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

Context: Secondary hypogonadism is common in aging men; its natural history and predisposing factors are unclear. Objectives: The objectives were 1) to identify factors that predispose eugonadal men (T >= 10.5 nmol/L) to develop biochemical secondary hypogonadism (T < 10.5 nmol/L; LH <= 9.4 U/L) and secondary hypogonadal men to recover to eugonadism; and 2) to characterize clinical features associ

A theoretical study is presented, in which the nonlinear response of a bi-ased Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) is calculated. The calculations are based on the nonequilibrium Green’s function formalism. Assuming a periodic electromagnetic field in the calculations, this formalism provides not only the stationary behavior Green’s functions, but also the part of the response that varies in time according

“This is not politics” A study of politicians views on their role in matters concerning The care of young persons act (LVU) The purpose of this study was to investigate what politicians who handles matters concerning exercise of authority towards individuals feel and experience in terms of the decision making process. The study is focused towards decision making in cases regarding The care of yo

Lean- production have for some decades been a standing feature in the private sector. In recent years has the use of the method gained recognition also in the public sector where civic organizations want to achieve the huge effective gains promised by the Lean-literature. Research has show that Lean-implementation on public organizations can have positive outcomes for the workplace as a whole. He

The aim of this study was to examine the infiltration rate of water and some parameters affecting it. Especially the land usage, the abundance of roots and macropores were investigated. A field study was carried out on western Java in Indonesia, on the slope of Mount Salak. The study compared four different land uses; i.e. forest, shrub areas, tree plantation and cropland since there was a high o

Since January 1st, 2008, there is a law in Sweden prescribing that all municipalities must be able to offer youths under 21 years of age mediation in case of crime. When mediating, two different kinds of mediators are used, one being a professional mediator and the other one a layman mediator. The purpose of my essay has been to examine how two rather small municipalities use laymen mediators and

Phenological observations of terrestrial ecosystems are useful in monitoring the changes in the local climate due to their relatively long time series and high temporal resolution. However performing field based phenological observations can be a labour intensive and time consuming process. Using satellite-based remotely sensed data can make the process much more efficient. Although the satellites

Uppsatsen behandlar brottsoffers rätt till ersättning för kränkning enligt SKL 2 kap 3§ och 5 kap 6§. Denna typ av ideell ersättning har rötter långt tillbaka i historien men har kraftigt ökat sin rättsliga betydelse de senaste 25 åren. En svängning i den politiska debatten har under denna tid lett till stadigt ökande ersättningsnivåer och ny lagstiftning. Uppsatsen presenterar brottsoffers rätt tThe report deals with victim rights to recover damages and state compensation for criminal violations under SKL Chapter 2 § 3 and Chapter 5 § 6 in Swedish law. The legal significance of monetary compensation for non-material or non-economic loss caused by criminal violations has increased rapidly in Sweden in the last 25 years. During this period a change in the political climate have resulted in

High-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) accounts for most ovarian cancer deaths, due to it often being diagnosed at late stages (III and IV). However, there is currently no early screening method sufficient for improving survival rates. HGSC primarily harbors structural variants, typically copy number (CN) aberrations caused by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). CN can be calculated based on re

Operational systems, such as industrial automation, autonomous vehicles, and larger air/sea/landcrafts, often contain a large number of heavily connected systems with real-time requirements for their functionality. For such systems, detecting and responding to anomalies is both challenging and crucial. Until recently, such anomalies were monitored using heuristic methods, or even humans monitoring

Hydrogen plays a pivotal role in the global energy transition, offering a clean and versatile energy carrier for a sustainable future. However, ensuring its safe use in industrial facilities requires reli- able prediction of dispersion from Venting Units (VUs). Traditional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations provide high-fidelity results but are too slow for fast safety assessment and i
