Computational chemistry studies of wood-derived lignans
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-05-31)
This thesis is based on computational chemistry studies on lignans, focusing on the naturally occurring lignan hydroxymatairesinol (HMR) (Papers I II) and on TADDOL-like conidendrin-based chiral 1,4-diol ligands (LIGNOLs) ...
Identification and application of bile metabolites to assess the exposure of fish to pharmaceuticals in the environment
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-04-26)
Thousands of tons of pharmaceuticals are consumed yearly worldwide. Due to the continuous and increasing consumption and their incomplete elimination in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP), pharmaceuticals and their metabolites ...
Occurrence and photochemical fate of selected pharmaceutical active ingredients in the aquatic environment
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-02-22)
Modelling of potentiometric ion sensors
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-09-30)
Potentiometric ion sensors are a very important subgroup of electrochemical sensors, very attractive for practical applications due to their small size, portability, low-energy consumption, relatively low cost and not ...
Characterisation of waste for combustion : with special reference to the role of zinc
(Åbo Akademi University, Process Chemistry Centre, 2013-12-11)
Waste combustion has gone from being a volume reducing discarding-method to an energy recovery process for unwanted material that cannot be reused or recycled. Different fractions of waste are used as fuel today, such as; ...
Liquid transportation and distribution during (re)wetting : impact on coated papers in printing
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-01-25)
In many industrial applications, such as the printing and coatings industry, wetting of porous materials by liquids includes not only imbibition and permeation into the bulk but also surface spreading and evaporation. By ...
Modeling of fireside deposit formation in two industrial furnaces
(Åbo Akademi University, Process Chemistry Centre, 2013-12-05)
Fireside deposits can be found in many types of utility and industrial furnaces. The deposits in furnaces are problematic because they can reduce heat transfer, block gas paths and cause corrosion. To tackle these problems, ...
Oxidation rates of carbon and nitrogen in char residues from solid fuels
(Åbo Akademi University, Process Chemistry Centre, 2013-06-07)
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling is an important tool in designing new combustion systems. By using CFD modeling, entire combustion systems can be modeled and the emissions and the performance can be predicted. ...
Synthesis, characterization and chemical sensor application of conducting polymers
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2013-12-18)
Polymeric materials that conduct electricity are highly interesting for fundamental studies and beneficial for modern applications in e.g. solar cells, organic field effect transistors (OFETs) as well as in chemical and ...
The role of potassium in the corrosion of superheater materials in boilers firing biomass
(Åbo Akademi University, Process Chemistry Centre, 2013-12-13)
Inhibition of global warming has become one of the major goals for the coming decades. A key strategy is to replace fossil fuels with more sustainable fuels, which has generated growing interest in the use of waste-derived ...
