Life-cycle assessment of international vacation packages
(Master thesis, 2014)This thesis aims to perform a Life Cycle Assessment in order to explore environmental impacts associated with a vacation package. It identified the phases of the holiday that generated the largest impact, the most significant ... -
Life-cycle assessment of Solid Wood and Engineered Wood Tables
(Master thesis, 2024)Denne avhandlingen evaluerer miljøpåvirkningen fra bord av MDF, sponplater og heltre ved hjelp av en omfattende livssyklusanalyse (LCA) for å forstå hvordan møblenes levetid påvirker miljøpåvirkningen. Studien viser hvor ... -
Life-cycle assessment to unravel co-benefits and trade-offs of large-scale biochar deployment in Norwegian agriculture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Limiting temperature rise below 2 °C requires large deployment of Negative Emission Technologies (NET) to capture and store atmospheric CO2. Compared to other types of NETs, biochar has emerged as a mature option to store ... -
Life-cycle impacts of wind energy development on bird diversity in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)While wind energy remains a preferred source of renewable energy, understanding the full spectrum of impacts are vital to balance climate-related benefits against their costs to biodiversity. Environmental impact assessments ... -
Lifetime analysis of historical buildings in Trondheim
(Master thesis, 2023)Kvantifisering av bygningers levetid er avgjørende for å modellere urban befolkningsdynamikk og bygninger generelle miljøpåvirkning. Denne parameteren er imidlertid relativt lite dokumentert på grunn av manglende tilgang ... -
Lifetime Assessment of Combined Cycles for Cogeneration of Power and Heat in Offshore Oil and Gas Installations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The utilization of combined cycles for offshore cogeneration of power and heat is an attractive option to reduce the CO2 emissions directly related to the oil and gas sector. Main challenges for their efficient implementation ... -
Lifetime commissioning as a tool to achieve energy-efficient solutions
(Journal article, 2012)Quality control of the complete energy system is necessary if energy-efficient solutions are to be met. To perform good building operation and quality control of a given system, it is necessary to have information about ... -
Lifshitz interaction can promote ice growth at water-silica interfaces
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)At air-water interfaces, the Lifshitz interaction by itself does not promote ice growth. On the contrary, we find that the Lifshitz force promotes the growth of an ice film, up to 1–8 nm thickness, near silica-water ... -
Lift-off of methane jet flames in O2/CO2 atmospheres
(Master thesis, 2009)Turbulent jet diffusion flames and flame lift-off have been the topic of a great deal of research due to its complexity in combining both turbulent flow and combustion. The mechanisms controlling flame lift-off however, ... -

Limiting current density as a selectivity factor in electrodialysis of multi-ionic mixtures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Electrodialysis is a promising technology to remove low concentrations of target ions from multi-ionic mixtures. While the synthesis of selective membranes is a prominent topic in research, few studies have been presented ... -
Limits to graphite supply in a transition to a post-fossil society
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Transitioning to electric vehicles (EVs) powered by lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) aims at reducing emissions in the transportation sector, thereby decreasing fuel oil use and crude oil extraction. Yet, synthetic graphite, ... -
Linear Flow Analysis Inspired by Mathematical Methods from Quantum Mechanics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Since its birth in the 1920s, quantum mechanics has motivated and advanced the analysis of linear operators. In this effort, it significantly contributed to the development of sophisticated mathematical tools in spectral ... -
Linkages and stock dynamics of the aluminium-gallium system: Alloying elements, impurities and by-products
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:283, Doctoral thesis, 2015)Impending global environmental- and resource related problems require a transformation of the socio-economic metabolism, the inputs, processing and outputs of materials and energy in society. The environmental impacts ... -
Linking ecosystem services and damages from bauxite mining in an LCA context - A case study from Hydro and a movement towards no net loss of ecosystem services
(Master thesis, 2016)This study is part of a yearlong study with Norsk Hydro ASA addressing the impacts on ecosystem services in primary aluminum value chains. Here, the focus is on the impacts of bauxite mining at two locations in northern ... -
Linking Housing Policy, Housing Typology, and Residential Energy Demand in the United States
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Residential energy demand can be greatly influenced by the types of housing structures that households live in, but few studies have assessed changes in the composition of housing stocks as a strategy for reducing residential ... -
Linking inventories and impact assessment models for addressing biodiversity impacts: mapping rules and challenges
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Purpose An adequate matching between the nomenclature of elementary flows in life cycle inventory (LCI) databases and life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) methods is key for ensuring the proper application of life cycle ... -
Linking marine plastic debris quantities to entanglement rates: Development of a life cycle impact assessment ‘effect factor’based on species sensitivity
(Master thesis, 2019)Etter hvert som produksjon og bruk av plast fortsetter å vokse eksponentielt, øker også andelen «feilbehandlet avfall» som ender opp i naturen. En voksende forskningsgruppe har forsøkt å kvantifisere effekten av dette ... -
