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.

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.

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

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

We will conduct fieldwork to determine if air concentrations of PFAS are correlated with tracers of sea spray aerosols and conduct modelling to determine if ocean-to-air transport of PFAS is an important source of PFAS relative to other sources.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

Fundamental science and explorative applied research will be combined in the SUSLIG project to pave the way for new lignin-based materials. The produced material prototypes will be scalable and net positive to the environment, building on interdisciplinary materials chemistry and the principles of green chemistry and engineering.

To counter detrimental impacts of climate change and population growth LIFAGRO will develop biobased materials for advanced agricultural applications.

A PhD student will conduct research to address the challenges in applying the essential use concept to uses of PFAS to support informed substitution of PFAS.

Methanol can be a vector to store dihydrogen.

The project focuses on developing materials from renewable resources, and their evaluating their potential in developing functionalized surfaces for water-treatment.

PERFORCE3 will greatly improve the understanding of these globally pervasive contaminants, find solutions for PFAS contamination problems and improve environmental and human health risk assessment frameworks and policies.

Recycling of textiles and forest residues to produce chemicals and nanocellulose.

The research program address global sustainability challenges uses naturally occurring and commercially important raw materials to develop smart materials for removal of chemical wastes and pollutants from ambient water and air in the environment and industrial effluents. SU focus on biobased membranes and adsorbents for water treatment.

Biochars are stable carbon-rich solids that can enhance the properties of soil and contribute to long-term carbon storage. Here we will study how multitasking biochars can be made from biowastes and be modified into slow-release fertilizers with an integrated function to decompose organochlorine pollutant

The group's research focus on nanoporous carbon membranes for environmental and energy applications. In this project we investigate stabilized bicontinuous interfacially jammed emulsion gels otherwise known as "bijels".

Cellulose is an essential constituent in the architecture of plants, where it contributes with extraordinary properties in terms of strength and stiffness. Using scanning electron diffraction we are revealing details of its atomic structure.

ZeroPM will enable the EU Green Deal‘s ambition towards Zero Pollution of Persistent, Mobile Substances. ZeroPM will interlink Prevention, Prioritization and Removal strategies to achieve its goals.
