According to the EC fuel regulations 2 % bio fuel has to be blended in all fuel by the year 2005, and 5.75 % by the year 2010, which means ethanol for gasoline driven vehicles, so there will be a substantial demand for ethanol. Brazil already has an established industry for producing ethanol and is the leading producer and exporter of fuel ethanol. My purpose with this paper is to investigate why Brazil decided to develop ethanol production on a large-scale operation and to find out today?s situation. Focus will mainly be on ethanol production with sugarcane as a feedstock.

En skadehändelse i en transformator är en mycket allvarlig företeelse. Ett elektriskt fel inom en transformator kan leda till att en ljusbåge med enorm energi uppstår inom transformatorn. Denna ljusbåge kan i värsta fall leda till en omfattande gasexplosion, med stora sekundärbränder i den isolerolja som finns inom transformatorn som följd. Även om sannolikheten för en sådan händelse är att betrakta som liten, så är konsekvenserna av denna skadehändelse mycket allvarliga för ett vattenkraftverk. Denna rapport är en fördjupning av en skadehändelse utifrån detta ?värsta fall?, på Letsi vattenkraftverk.

Stureholm Manor and garden is a relatively young farming unit on clay soil in the north western part of Skåne, a province in Southern Sweden. Since the middle of the 19th century the landscape has been actively cultivated and has been transformed from oak forrest into farmingland of high efficiency. The industrial era during the 19th and 20th centuries meant new posssibilites for cultivation of these clay soils. With equipment like steam ploughs and the possibility to obtain fertilizers, the harvest increased considerably. This increased prosperity provided estate Stureholm with a beatuiful corps de logi, a manor. The trends prevailing in Europe around the turn of the century 1800-1900 against the growing industrialism, was turned into a artisan movement known as Arts and Craft. The Swedish followers idealized our Swedish history and they took the turn of a national romantic movement that later turned into neoclassicism.
