  • 3D-printing of biobased filters functionalized with nanocellulose for water purification

    Research project

    The projects aims to develop 2D and 3D high flux monolithic water purification filters with gradient porosity, tortuous pathways and selective adsorption for water pollutants.

  • Activated limestone to reduce the eutrophication in the Baltic Sea

    Research project

    In close collaboration with various actors, we study how activated limestone can be used to reduce the phosphorus concentration in the Baltic Sea. The project involves large-scale synthesis of adsorbents as well as studies in the field in Kyrkviken in Östergötland.

  • AfyaDx - exchanging ideas and challenges for point-of-care diagnostics

    Research project

    Aiming to connect researchers and stakeholders from high-income and low- and middle-income countries in Sub-Saharan Africa to exchange ideas and challenges for point-of-care diagnostics of maternal and neonatal infection.

  • Asymmetric synthesis of boronic acids and organofluorine compounds by organocatalysis

    Research project

    This project is focused on development of new synthetic methodology for organic synthesis of chiral fluorine and boron containing species.

  • Biocatalytic membranes based on lignin nanoparticles

    Research project

    The overarching purpose of LIGNOMEMB is to use spherical lignin particles to develop new biocatalytic membranes for enzyme-assisted chemical reactions and separation processes.

  • C1Bio – carbon fixation by green chemistry for a C1-based bioeconomy

    Research project

    The main purpose of C1Bio is to develop innovative green catalytic methods to enable the valorisation of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide into renewable platform chemicals, biofuels and polymers.

  • Chemical profiling and toxicological assessment of organic aerosols from traffic

    Research project

    Chemical profiling and toxicological assessment of organic aerosols from traffic - Necessary knowledge for improved risk assessments and regulations.

  • Circular lignin materials from well-defined functional building blocks (CIRCULIG)

    Research project

    The CIRCULIG project aims to revolutionize the use of lignin by creating circular lignin materials with functional properties derived from well-defined nanostructures.

  • Colloidal and aminated porous liquids for emission free and energy efficient CO2 capture

    Research project

    Porous, aminated and colloidal liquid could potentially reduce the energy use for carbon dioxide capture as compared to traditional amines in aqueous solution.

  • Design of chemical reagents for fast and sensitive detection of pesticides in water and food

    Research project

    The focus of this project is on sustainable development of chemical reagents for detection of glyphosate.

  • DVD-readable Lab-on-a-Disc medical device for obesity management

    Research project

    The project will develop a novel portable medical device to monitor the most appropriate biomarkers in a decentralized way that uses electronics, optics, electrochemistry, and microfluidics. This new medical device is cost-efficient and will play a crucial role in managing chronic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes.

  • Fluorination of anticancer peptide drug conjugates

    Research project

    This project is focused on development of late stage fluorination methods for nitrogen-based anticancer alkylators

  • FORest materials: opportunities and obstacles for a Circular Economy in Sweden (FORCES)

    Research project

    FORCES is a project that aims to explore the potential of forest materials as enablers of a circular economy. The project will bring together three research groups with expertise in materials chemistry, chemical and environmental regulation, and sustainability science.

  • From Forest to Functional Particles for Life Sciences (FORFUN)

    Research project

    FORFUN aims to develop novel techniques for creating colloidal particles from lignin and hemicelluloses, with the intention of harnessing their potential in the field of life science materials

  • Functional Quasicrystals? – Harnessing the complexity of aperiodic intermetallic compounds

    Research project

    The purpose of the project is to investigate whether quasicrystals possess unique properties that are introduced by their aperiodic atomic structure. Of particular interest are magnetic and electronic properties which recently have emerged in several Tsai-type quasicrystals

  • Green coordination polymers for catalysis and medicine

    Research project

    Nanoporous materials have widespread applications including drug delivery, pollution capture and degradation. The project develops these materials from nontoxic metal cations and renewably sourced plant-based molecules.

  • Green Integrated Technology for Removal of CO2

    Research project

    CO2 is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the EU which produces a positive climate forcing or warming effect on Earth by absorbing energy and slowing the rate at which the energy escapes to space.

  • Immobilization of PFAS in landfills using activated biochars (ABC)

    Research project

    This project tackles the growing environmental threat posed by PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) in landfills, which are increasingly recognized as potential secondary sources of PFAS contamination to surrounding groundwater and ecosystems.

  • Industrial waste streams as sustainable alternatives to peat in mushroom cultivation

    Research project

    This project addresses two major environmental challenges for Sweden and the EU: the reduction of peat extraction and the accumulation of sludge waste at pulp and paper mills. The goal is to diminish the use of peat for casings in mushroom production and find alternatives for critical peat-dependent species like the common button mushroom, Agaricus bisporus.

  • In situ microscopy, X-ray scattering, and computational modeling

    Research project

    In situ microscopy, X-ray scattering, and computational modeling for unravelling the synthesis and performance of nanocellulose based membranes in aqueous medium.
