Ångcentralen på AAK har 4 olika pannor och huvudpannan är en biobränslepannan. Denna panna benämns även som Panna 4 och eldas idag med hushållspellets av klass A1. Vid förbränning så bildas kväveoxider, NOX, som har en negativ effekt på miljön och människor. AAK som idag ligger under villkorsvärdet för utsläpp av kväveoxider enligt krav från Förordning 2013:252 som gäller för stora förbränningsanlThe steam power station at AAK has 4 different boilers and the main boiler is a biofuel boiler. The boiler uses household pellets of type A1. During combustion, nitrogen oxides, NOX, are formed and they have many negative effects on the environment and has direct and indirect effects on human health. Today AAKs NOX emission are lower than the restricted regulation value for nitrogen oxide emission
The Permanent Establishment (PE) concept plays a key role in the distribution of taxing rights between States by determining when the profits derived by an entity are taxable in a State other than the State of its residency. This concept, originally, evidenced the existence of sufficient economic allegiances between a non-resident entity and a State to justify taxation therein. However, the evolut

The EU directive COM(2021) 762 (called the platform directive) art. 4 proposes that people performi
Significant behavioral changes will need to be implemented to prevent the energy supply sector from tripling CO2 emissions by the midcentury. However, within the academic research, behavior changes remain primarily focused on the individual level, while the behavior of companies that are responsible for elevated greenhouse gas emissions falls behind. This master’s thesis analyses the core values
The progression of fire safety research has contributed to improving the guiding principles of standardised building design. Research making use of pure materials, once common in homes and workplaces, are less relevant as such materials are no longer as prevalent. It is often newer, composite materials that are featured more prominently in building contents. The trend towards the evolution of comm
This research aims to fill the knowledge gap with regards to food waste prevention with a specific focus on quick service restaurants (QSRs) – also known as fast food restaurants. Restaurants are in a prime position to reduce food waste produced in the consumptive stages of the food supply chain, and more focus should be placed on how restaurants can help achieve food waste reduction targets. The
Can we change an established language? Religious language, as presented in Christianity, has been challenged by several feminists to be androcentric. This is owing to its patriarchal language in which God has been exemplified in such masculine terms as lord and father. In this paper I intend to investigate Julia Kristeva’s linguistic theory of how a language can change and transform itself from wi

In the European Union, the setting of Operational Groups (OG) is supported by the European Innovation Partnership to tackle specific problems and favor innovation in agriculture. They constitute an important aspect of the current Common Agricultural Policy. Increasing or maintaining soil organic carbon (SOC) content under arable farming has been acknowledged as a primary target of European agricul
Clofarabine has been shown to effectively induce remission in children with refractory leukemia. We conducted a prospective trial (clinicval.trials.gov NCT01025778) to explore the use of clofarabine-based chemotherapy as a bridge-to-transplant approach. Children with refractory acute leukemia were enrolled to receive two induction courses of clofarabine, etoposide, and cyclophosphamide (CloEC). Re

A search for dark matter produced in association with a Higgs boson decaying to b-quarks is performed using pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s=13 TeV. The dataset has an integrated luminosity of 79.8 fb−1 and was recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Selected collision events comprise large missing transverse momentum and either two b-tagged small radius jets o
This essay takes a starting point in the well-known tension between the media logic and the scientific logic and the challenges when communicating science in a mediatized society. Building on the experience of engaging in research comics, both as a method for communicating science and a creative example of a meeting between science and art, we introduce a framework — a pedagogical tool — for how sThis essay takes a starting point in the well-known tension between the media logic and the scientific logic and the challenges when communicating science in a mediatized society.
