Carbohydrates fulfill many biological roles in nature, all from giving cells their structure to cell signaling. Hemicelluloses form a group of polysaccharides found mostly in plant cells. These polysaccharides help to ...

The presence of pharmaceuticals in the environment is of concern due to their harmful effect on aquatic organisms. Because of this, it is important that they are effectively removed in wastewater treatment plants. Conventional ...

The development of cost efficient, selective and sustainable chemical processes for production of chiral building blocks is of great importance in synthetic and industrial organic chemistry. One way to reach these objectives ...

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; ...

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 ...

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) ...

As one of the pioneering works in the field of solid-contact ion-selective electrodes (SCISEs), a new coulometric transduction method was proposed by Bobacka’s group from Åbo Akademi University. This thesis work was carried ...

Among the numerous solar cell technologies, emerging thin film solar cells, such as dye-sensitized solar cells, offer the possibility for large-scale integration using sustainable and low-cost materials. In these thin ...

Preparation of optically active compounds is of high importance in modern medicinal chemistry. Despite recent advances in the field of asymmetric synthesis, resolution of racemates still remains the most utilized way for ...

Ion exchange membranes are indispensable for the separation of ionic species. They can discriminate between anions and cations depending on the type of fixed ionic group present in the membrane. These conventional ion ...
