Life cycle assessment (LCA) is an established method to assess the various environmental impacts associated with all the stages of a building. The goal of this project was to calculate the environmental releases for a whole office building and investigate the contribution in terms of environmental impact for different parts of the building, as well as the impact from different stages of the life cLife cycle assessment (LCA) is an established method to assess the various environmental impacts associated with all the stages of a building.

Spent sulfite liquor (SSL) is a byproduct of the sulfite pulping process of wood. SSL usually contains monosugars and lignosulfonates, which are fermented to produce ethanol and dried to generate lignosulfonate salts. However, the SSL that was used in this work was derived from the first step of a 2-step sulfite pulping process of softwood under mild pulping conditions in the first stage of cookin

The expansion of wind power in Sweden has brought increasing conflicts between the wind power industry and the interests of the military forces. This paper analyses the reasons for these perceived conflicts and suggests solutions for mitigating at least some of the problems. The analysis is based on literature studies, several semistructured interviews and workshops with stakeholders in Sweden, De

The present study is a part-study of the EVEDMUS (evaluation of teacher education in music) project aiming to examine the music teacher education programmes across Europe and Latin America. The overarching objective of the EVEDMUS project is to learn about the different conditions and causes in which the musical and educational knowledge is being constructed and identify factors in the programmes

Correction to: Communications Materialshttps://doi.org/10.1038/s43246-025-00842-y, published online 5 June 2025 The authors have identified an error related to the discussion of the XPS results in this Article. We incorrectly assigned some XPS features in the Ni 2p spectra to Ni3+ (Figure 7a and 7d), associated to NiOOH. However, the spectra in panel 7a are associated to Ni(OH)2 with an oxidation

Geophysical methods are increasingly being applied to geotechnical investigations, as they can identify material properties and material boundaries, as well as variations in space and time of relatively large volumes of soil. Another advantage is that many of these methods are non-intrusive. The combination of several methods and the verification of their results by sampling and correlating with g

Hydrogen transfer reactions hold pivotal importance in organic synthesis by enabling selective bond formation, achieving redox-neutral transformations, and advancing sustainable methodologies. However, designing efficient catalytic systems for such reactions under mild conditions persists as a fundamental challenge in green chemistry. In this study, we present a controllable synthesis of defective

Three phases of archaeological investigations have been conducted in the area of the City Museum of Novi Sad at the Petrovaradin Fortress. In this study, we summarize the results of geoarchaeological research carried out during the third phase of excavations inside the museum building. The investigated area covered 27 m2. The approximately 0.60 m thick loessic sequence offers a unique opportunity

Cap rock integrity is an essential characteristic of any reservoir to be used for long-term CO 2 storage. Seismic AVOA (amplitude variation with offset and azimuth) techniques have been applied to map HTI anisotropy near the cap rock of the Weyburn field in southeast Saskatchewan, Canada, with the purpose of identifying potential fracture zones that may compromise seal integrity. This analysis, su
