This thesis evaluates the environmental performance of six different fish farming systems. The thesis is part of the network group ?Hållbar fiskförsörjning I Stockholms län? (HFFS) which tries to increase the domestic and regional production of fish in Stockholm and move to a more sustainable supply in the Stockholm county. Two of the chosen systems; pangasius from Vietnam and salmon from Norway are delivering a substantial part of the fish consumed in Stockholm today, although they are very different when it comes to system characteristics. One system, arctic char with conventional feed, is produced in a fairly small scale in the north of Sweden, while the three remaining systems are viewed upon as possible options to supply Stockholm with fish in the future.

During the cultivation season there are a several cropping activities to carry out. At what time these activities are carried out is affecting the result and also on the economy of the crop production. As the production costs are high in potato production, it is important to keep an eye on the economy. Profitability is the most important factor in most crop production systems. If the costs are not covered, it is difficult to justify the production.

This is a bachelor thesis that studies and discuss the question: How can we develop our individual narrative technique with sound design in a Swedish drama production? We have done research and empirical studies. We have analyzed movies to get an idea how we use the sound design in Swedish drama productions today. We have produced a movie that gives sound the biggest part. Key words: Swedish drama production, narrative technique, sound design.

En studie har genomförts tillsammans med ett av de Sverigeledande företageninom industriellt byggande. Genom att tillverka husdelar, så kallade volymer, isin fabrik kan de göra byggandet av bostadshus mer effektivt än vid traditionellt byggande på plats.För att öka produktiviteten i fabriken har företaget valt att arbeta med Lean. Lean är en strategi som har sitt ursprung från den japanska och amerikanska bilindustrin. Grundprincipen är att ständigt arbeta med att förbättra sin verksamhet och eliminera slöseri. Det finns inga konkreta mål utan det handlar om att kontinuerligt röra sig i rätt riktning.

Visualization plays a key role in the concept of Lean. Lean was developed in Japan as a business philosophy in order to lead to an activity, where only steps that contribute to customer value of the final product are being performed. By defining the customer value and establish visualized standards, it is possible to see when situations differ from the standard. Then it?s possible to lead the process back on track.

AbstractPurpose ? The purpose of this study is to investigate possible reasons for long lead-time in a customer driven production, and how the lead-time can be reduced. To fulfil the purpose the study has been broken down into two questions.1. Whichfactorsaffectthelead-timeinacustomer-drivenproduction?2.

Volvo Trucks is the second largest manufacturer of heavy trucks, with factories in several countries and with around 21 000 employees. At the plant in Tuve, trucks have been built since 1982 and the activity mainly consists of producing side members and to assemble and packing kits of trucks. In 2005, the factory in Tuve launched the ambition to be the first carbon dioxide neutral vehicle factory in the world. This will be implemented by streamlining and investing in renewable energy. The aim of this degree thesis is to map the usage of energy within production, and also to prepare a method to measure key figures (use of energy per produced unit).

Abstract This report is our bachelor thesis. Our work has taken place at a galvanising company in Sölvesborg. The company faced major changes, of which one was a computerisation process. The new system could involve changes in work practice and in specific tasks, affecting the workers. If the coming system was to support work, from the production personnel?s perspective, we felt a legitimate participation in the development and design of the future work practice, was a requirement that was not met.

Antalet nyanlända elever ökar i den svenska skolan, men nyanlända elevers skolsituation är ett område där den akademiska forskningen är underutvecklad. Studiens syfte är att öka förståelsen för hur undervisning och bedömning av nyanlända elever i ämnet hem- och konsumentkunskap kan utformas. Detta har undersökts genom intervjuer med fyra lärare som arbetar i två olika kommuner. Vid intervjuerna framkom att organiseringen av nyanlända elevers HK-undervisning skiljer sig åt på de olika skolorna, då eleverna börjar delta i HK-undervisning alltifrån första veckan i svensk skola till efter ett till två år. För att göra lektionsinnehållet tillgängligt även för nyanlända elever med bristande kunskaper i svenska används följande fyra strategier: delar av kommunikationen under lektionstid sker på engelska och/eller elevens modersmål, eleven får språkligt och innehållsmässigt stöd utanför lektionstid, läraren demonstrerar valda delar samt läraren anpassar uppgifter och redovisningskrav.

This degree project is a realization of a strategy for collaboration between an industrial designer and employed workmen of a producing company. The collaboration aims to engage everyone involved in the co-authorship of a products design and manufacturing history. The realization has taken place in an open dialogue where the designer no longer owns the design process by himself. The project has been carried out in cooperation with the company Iris Hantverk. The company is owned by the Swedish body for visually impaired and has their main production facility in Stockholm.

Logistik fått en allt viktigare roll i dagens rationaliseringsarbete eftersom många av effektivitetsvinsterna ligger i gränssnitten mellan olika avdelningar och aktörer i värdeflödet. Därmed är det av intresse att studera huruvida aktörer kan erhålla synergieffekter genom samordning inom logistiksystemet. Då varje aktörs logistiksystem är unikt så har studien utförts i samarbete med en global kemikoncern på en utav deras fabriksområden. På området verkar i dagsläget sex oberoende aktörer, varav tre tillhör den aktuella koncernen och därmed är de som ligger i fokus för studien. De övriga aktörerna likväl de aktiviteter som inte är kopplade till logistiken har exkluderats ur studien.Utifrån det här intresset och samarbetet så har följande syfte formulerats: ?Syftet med studien är att utreda vilka potentiella synergieffekter som kan erhållas vid en samordning av aktiviteter och resurser inom logistikhantering mellan aktörer, som i dagsläget arbetar mer eller mindre isolerat ifrån varandra?.Genom en kombination av litteratursökningar med fokus på Lean och Nätverksmodellen samt en kvalitativ studie i form av datainsamling, flertalet intervjuer, noggranna observationer, processkartläggning samt en benchmarking har en analys gjorts.Analysen har lett fram till ett flertal rekommendationer där förbättringspotential finns samt förväntade synergieffekter som rekommendationerna kan resultera i.

This project is a learning CD-ROM production aimed at first-time parents. It is using both sound and images, moving as well as non-moving. The purpose of the production is to be an interesting alternative to traditional books. We have been looking at similar productions like drivers license educational CD-ROMs and encyclopedias for inspiration and ideas on how to proceed. In order to give the content some dynamics, we've also added the element of 3D-animated sequences.

The demand for biogas as vehicle fuel has risen sharply and there is a great need for increased production. A possible addition of vehicle gas can be produced by upgrading landfill gas which is formed by degradation of organic waste. This thesis investigates the potential of producing vehicle fuel from landfill gas in the region of Biogas Öst.In 2008, an amount of 32 million Nm3 landfill gas was extracted in the region. This level can be maintained for another ten years if the efficiency of gas extraction is improved. The annual production will decrease with time since landfills aren?t allowed to receive more organic waste.

This thesis calculates and compares the values of improved environmental quality due to future possible investment alternatives in biogas production facilities at Käppalaförbundets Reningsverk (Käppala Sewage Treatment Works) in an attempt to determine which alternative yields the highest such value. Käppala faces three investment alternatives for the usage of biogas. The alternatives are production of vehicle fuel, district heating and thirdly, heat and power production. Estimates of the value of environmental change are calculated for each of the three investment alternatives, and these estimates are then compared. The environmental change in question is the change in discharge levels of carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and particle matter.
