UV degradation of natural and synthetic microfibers causes fragmentation and release of polymer degradation products and chemical additives
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)A high proportion of the total microplastic (MP) load in the marine environment has been identified as microfibers (MFs), with polyester (PET) and polyamide (PA) typically found in the highest abundance. The potential for ... -
Lead concentrations in blood from incubating common eiders (Somateria mollissima) in the Baltic Sea.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Here we investigate if lead may be a contributing factor to the observed population decline in a Baltic colony of incubating eiders (Somateria mollissima). Body mass and blood samples were obtained from 50 incubating female ... -
Multi-commodity price risk hedging in the Atlantic salmon farming industry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Cost management has received limited attention in the aquaculture industry due to historically high profit margins. This trend, however, is not likely to continue. This creates a need for knowledge on optimally managing ... -
Identification of a Pivotal Residue for Determining the Block Structure-Forming Properties of Alginate C-5 Epimerases
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Alginate is a linear copolymer composed of 1→4 linked β-d-mannuronic acid (M) and its epimer α-l-guluronic acid (G). The polysaccharide is first produced as homopolymeric mannuronan and subsequently, at the polymer level, ... -
Hyperballistic Superdiffusion and Explosive Solutions to the Non-Linear Diffusion Equation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)By means of a particle model that includes interactions only via the local particle concentration, we show that hyperballistic diffusion may result. This is done by finding the exact solution of the corresponding non-linear ... -
Seeking minimum entropy production for a tree-like flow-field in a fuel cell
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Common for tree-shaped, space-filling flow-field plates in polymer electrolyte fuel cells is their ability to distribute reactants uniformly across the membrane area, thereby avoiding excess concentration polarization or ... -
The Impact of Peltier and Dufour Coefficients on Heat Fluxes and Temperature Profiles in the Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We show that the coupling effects in non-equilibrium thermodynamics for heat-, mass- and charge- transport in the polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) all give significant contributions to local heat effects. The ... -
Introducerea determinărilor de trihalometani în practica urmaririi eficienţei staţiilor de tratare
(Journal article, 1988)Determinarea clorhidrocarburilor, în special a trihalometanilor în apa potabilă tratată prin clorurare a fost îmbunătățită prin dezvoltarea unui metode gaz cromatografic. Metoda include o etapă de extracție cu solvent, ... -
Catalytic studies of cyclometalated gold(III) complexes and their related UiO-67 MOF
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Cyclometalated gold(III) complexes Au(L)(OAcF)2 (L = phenylpyridine dicarboxylic diester (ppyde) or phenylpyridine dicarboxylic acid (ppydc)) have been prepared reacting Au(OAc)3 with corresponding phenyl pyridines (ppyde ... -
Non-Nucleophilic Electrolyte Based on Ionic Liquid and Magnesium Bis(diisopropyl)amide for Rechargeable Magnesium-Ion Batteries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)A non-nucleophilic electrolyte for rechargeable Mg-ion batteries is developed by the reaction of magnesium bis(diisopropyl)amide and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachloroaluminate ionic liquid in tetrahydrofuran solvent. ... -
Salinity acclimation strategies for nitrifying bioreactors in recirculating aquaculture systems
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:33, Doctoral thesis, 2021)The demand for seafood is rising like never before, and unsustainable fishing has depleted the oceans. Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) can present a sustainable solution by producing seafood in land-based systems ... -
Experiment design and bacterial abundance control extracellular H2O2 concentrations during four series of mesocosm experiments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The extracellular concentration of H2O2 in surface aquatic environments is controlled by a balance between photochemical production and the microbial synthesis of catalase and peroxidase enzymes to remove H2O2 from solution. ... -
Trace Elements in the Large Population-Based HUNT3 Survey
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The Nord-Trøndelag Health Study (The HUNT Study) is a large health survey population study in the county of Trøndelag, Norway. The survey has been repeated four times in about 10-year intervals. In the HUNT3 survey ... -

Microplastic fibres from synthetic textiles: Environmental degradation and additive chemical content
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Microplastic fibres (MPFs) often make up the largest fraction of microplastic pollution in aquatic environments, yet little is known about their degradative fate and persistence. This study investigates the environmentally ... -
Non-equilibrium thermodynamics and nature-inspired chemical engineering applied to PEM fuel cells
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:38, Doctoral thesis, 2021)The first objective of this thesis is to discover potentials for the optimisation of the performance of polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells by using new designs for the flow field plates (FFP) based on nature-inspired ... -
Catalytic Activity of trans-Bis(pyridine)gold Complexes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Gold catalysis has become one of the fastest growing fields in chemistry, providing new organic transformations and offering excellent chemoselectivities under mild reaction conditions. Methodological developments have ... -
Demonstrating Basic Properties and Application of Polarimetry Using a Self-Constructed Polarimeter
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)An easily constructed and inexpensive polarimeter with an optical rotation angle resolution of about 0.5° is presented. It is made from small pieces of polarizing film, 2 LEDs, a protractor, and a few wires, all held in ... -
Symmetry of three-center, four-electron bonds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Three-center, four-electron bonds provide unusually strong interactions; however, their nature remains ununderstood. Investigations of the strength, symmetry and the covalent versus electrostatic character of three-center ... -
