Detta arbete syftar till att få en bild av hur delar av bioenergimarknaden kan se ut. Vad styr priset och vad är bra att veta om man funderar över att sälja energigrödor eller biobränslen till ett blivande eller befintligt kraftvärmeverk. I den här undersökningen har jag valt att avgränsa mig till halm och flis. Det visar sig att transport och val av hantering är de kritiska punkterna för ekonomin. För halmbalar är transport med lastbil och tåg det lönsammaste alternativet och skiljer sig marginellt vid de olika transportavstånden.

The result of this study shows that older women were often abused, by a relative they were dependent on, in their home.

I norra London startade, den sjätte augusti 2011, ett av de största upploppen i modern tid. Syftet med denna teoretiska uppsats är att - inspirerat av londonupploppen - diskutera olika teoretiska sätt att förklara och förstå händelserna ifråga, med särskild fokus på relationen mellan strukturellt och direkt våld. Styrande teman är socialt utanförskap, skam och vanmakt. Analysen indikerar att det sociala utanförskap som strukturellt våld och relativ deprivation skapar är grogrunden för vanmakt och skam ? två känslor som är intimt förknippade med direkt våld.

In Europe, the central governments are the ones to coordinate the international standards and strategies regarding GPP; Green Public Procurement. However in Spain a GPP program was introduced late and only applied to the Central Government Institutions, (AGEA) (BOE nr. 027, 2008). These means that smaller administrations, such as, Autonomous Regions, Municipalities and Town Councils were not included in the program. The absence of a national program which excludes those governments made them introduce their own criteria for GPP, and the difference in criteria varies from one government to the other.

Academica är ett stadsbyggnadsförslag för området längs Valhallavägens östra del mellan Roslagstull och korsningen Valhallavägen/Odengatan. Bakom förslaget står Stockholmsbyggmästarna och Utopia Arkitekter. Platsen har identifierats av Stockholmsstad som ställer sig positiva till att utvecklaområdet. I samband med NorraLänkens färdigställande år 2015 förväntas trafikmängden minska och transport av farligt gods kommer inte längre att tillåtas på Valhallavägen. Detta kommer att göra det möjligt att utveckla området och inte minst att bebygga det med bostäder.

During the Swedish banking crisis in the early 1990?s, the government paid out 65 billion Swedish kronor to save Swedish banks from bankruptcy. In the process, two banks left the private sector to be taken over by the state. This thesis builds on a study from 1998 in seeking to quantify the financial end result for the Swedish government from the subsidies. Taking a cash flow approach and accounting for the time difference, it starts with the money paid out during the years of crisis and subtracts the money that has since been returned to the government by successful management of the relinquished assets.

AbstractAt Saltvikens copperindustry, which is located in the municipality of Oskarshamn, copper was refined from sulphiteore some hundred years ago. The ore underwent several steps in the process before the final product was received. These steps all had an influence on the environment through discharge of heavy metals. The area where the copper industry was located is today considered to be of specific national interest due to its valuable nature and cultural values, as well as its value for recreational outdoor activities. Therefore, it is important to determine the present level of contamination and if any transport of contaminants have occurred, and to identify the risks that are associated with the site both at present and in a longer time perspective.Thirtynine soil samples and 16 sediment samples have been analyzed.

I praktiken rörde det sig om linjerna Stockholm-Göteborg, Stockholm-Malmö samt Stockholm Sundsvall..
