Passive Solar Driven Water Treatment of Contaminated Water Resources
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2015;, Master thesis, 2016-07-15)Freshwater, being vital for mankind survival, has become a very serious concern for the public especially living in countries with limited water, energy and economic resources. Freshwater generation is an energy-intensive ... -
Performance of salsnes water to algae treatment (swat) technology in a continuous mode for high algae recovery
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2014;, Master thesis, 2014-04-03)Many researchers consider efficient harvesting is the major bottleneck in cost efficient production of microalgae, contributing 20 – 30 % to total production cost. This thesis is the conclusion of a two years research ... -
Performance of sequencing batch reactors for nutrient removal using salsnes filter fine mesh sieves as a primary treatment
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2013;, Master thesis, 2013)This study investigated the performance of sequencing batch reactors (SBR) for nitrification and denitrification. Bench scale Salsnes Filter (SF) was used as a primary treatment to provide wastewater with different organic ... -
Phenotype identification, cloning and expression of B55 subunit mutants of protein phosphatase 2A in Arabidopsis model plant
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Plant photoreceptors sense light and regulate certain downstream genes to alter morphological features. In Arabidopsis, these are three classes of photoreceptors: far/red light absorbing phyochromes, UV/blue light absorbing ... -
Pigment identification during deetiolation of barley seedlings
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)Angiosperm plants like barley (Hordeum vulgare) lack chlorophyll when grown in complete dark. Upon exposure to light, chlorophyll is formed during the process of deetiolation. Here , we show that in complete darkness barley ... -
Plasma drilling on solar system objects
(Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMN/2017;, Master thesis, 2017-06)The search for water, minerals and most importantly evidence of life on other objects of our solar system will require access to the subsurface for sampling and in situ investigations. Drilling is therefore needed for this ... -
