Reactor Modelling for Fluid-Solid Systems
The aim of the present doctoral thesis is the development of reliable mathematical models for the simulation of fluid-solid reactors. The main idea was to elaborate a rigorous ...
Application of Hydrophobic Solid Contacts in Ion-Selective Electrodes
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2017-10-13)
Ionophore-based ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) are attractive tools for environmental monitoring, process control and clinical analysis. Recent developments in ISE research, such as single-use disposable sensors, require ...
Chemical engineering of surface coatings for natural stones
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2017-02-24)
Natural stones are materials widely used in today’s architecture. White stones (such as marble) and speckled stones (such as granite) are regarded as suitable for decorative purposes and as construction materials. A major ...
Fractionation of marine algae to its constituents towards valuable chemicals and energy products
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2017-11-20)
There is an urgency for finding renewable resources for the replacement of fossil resources aiming at more environmentally friendly processing. The old concept of processing forestry biomass for pulp and paper that dominated ...
Geological and mineralogical aspects on mineral carbonation
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2017-01-03)
The mineralogical features that characterise each individual mineral and rock also influence every process they are part of. This is also the case with “the ÅA route” mineral carbonation method that has been under development ...
Synthetic modifications of the natural lignan hydroxymatairesinol towards ligands for asymmetric catalysis
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2017-02-17)
Finland has a long history of utilizing wood as fuel, construction material and for paper production. However, modern reality raises the question of more efficient and advanced utilization of wood‐based natural products. ...
Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 2 and the trpc1 ion channel as regulators of human thyroid cancer cell migration and proliferation
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2017-09-22)
Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine cancer and currently there is no effective treatment available against the most aggressive and highly invasive forms of thyroid cancer. Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive ...
Fibre surface engineering using polysaccharide derivatives
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 2017-12-12)
In the search for new materials and innovative solutions, pulp fibres obtained from wood chips have gained attention during the last few decades because they can be converted into a wide variety of pulp-derived products. ...
