The suspended solids (SS) concentrations in effluent from moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBRs) used for secondary biological treatment can be up to 500 mg/L. Microscreens (Drumfilters or Discfilters) can be used as alternatives to traditional clarification or dissolved air flotation to remove SS and total phosphorus (TP). This study shows how a small-scale municipal WWTP for 5,700 population equiva

This thesis attempts to describe and interpret the design practice of an American architect, Frank O. Gehry through concepts developed by French philosopher Gilles Deleuze and his collaborator, French psychotherapist, philosopher and activist, Félix Guattari. At the same time, prototyping a website-based interactive project called PLATEAU GEHRY_CONNECTIVES, it explores an alternative form for the

INTRODUCTION: The pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has exposed vulnerable populations to an unprecedented global health crisis. The knowledge gained from previous human coronavirus outbreaks suggests that pregnant women and their fetuses are particularly susceptible to poor outcomes. The objective of this study was to summarize the clinical manife

Reflektionen i denna artikel påbörjade jag i ett anförande hållet i april 2019 vid tjugofemårsjubiléet av Teologiska Högskolan i Stockholm – min arbetsplats under många formativa år. Under hösten fick jag skäl att utveckla tankarna vidare då jag blev inbjuden att skriva i den bok som nu sett dagens ljus och vars syfte är att högtidlighålla hundraårsjubiléet av Vetenskapssocieteten i Lund – hemvist

We will study the formation history of the Milky Way, and the earliest phases of its chemical enrichment, with a sample of more than 1.5 million stars at high galactic latitude. Elemental abundances of up to 20 elements with a precision of better than 0.2 dex will be derived for these stars. The sample will include members of kinematically coherent substructures, which we will associate with their

The current status of and motivation for the 4MOST survey strategy, as developed by the Consortium science team, are presented here. Key elements of the strategy are described, such as sky coverage, number of visits and total exposure times in different parts of the sky, and how to deal with different observing conditions. The task of organising the strategy is not simple, with many different surv

I det moderna lantbruket blir gårdarna allt större och mer specialiserade. En följd kan bli överskott av stallgödsel i områden med mycket djur, vilket ökar risken för näringsläckage. Samtidigt är stallgödsel en värdefull resurs som tillför näringsämnen till marken och gör den bördig. Skulle transporter av stallgödsel till områden med växtodling kunna bidra till att minska näringsläckaget i djurtät

Objective A case-control study was conducted to assess seasonal influenza vaccine effectiveness (SIVE) during the 2015-2016 influenza season. Methods A study was performed in three departments in Lithuania between 1 December 2015 and 1 May 2016. Data on demographic and clinical characteristics including influenza vaccination status were collected from the patients recommended to receive the season

Tre forskare med olika specialinriktningar skildrar hur växternas förfäder för länge sedan uppstod genom att bakterier och andra enkla mikroskopiska varelser slog sig samman till en mer komplicerad organism. Från ett liv i vatten tog föregångarna till dagens växter steget upp på land. De förändrade vår planet på många sätt, och gjorde det möjligt för oss djur och människor att leva här. Växterna p

Introduction:Because of variability in published A(H1N1)pdm09 influenza vaccine effectiveness estimates, we conducted a study in the adults belonging to the risk groups to assess the A(H1N1)pdm09 MF59-adjuvanted influenza vaccine effectiveness.Methods:VE against influenza and/or pneumonia was assessed in the cohort study (n>25000), and vaccine effectiveness against laboratory-confirmed A(H1N1)pdm0
