From Waste to Value From Waste to Value From Waste to Value investigates how streams of organic waste and residues can be trans- formed into valuable products, to foster a transition towards a sustainable and circular bio- economy. The studies are carried out within a cross-disciplinary framework, drawing on a diverse set of theoretical approaches and defining different valorisation pathways. Organic waste streams from households and industry are becoming a valuable resource in today’s economies. Substances that have long represented a cost to companies and a burden for society are now becoming an asset. Waste products, such as leftover food, forest residues and animal carcasses, can be turned into valuable products such as biomaterials, biochemicals and biopharmaceuticals. Exploiting these waste resources is challenging, however. It requires that companies develop new technologies and that public authorities introduce new regulation and governance models. This book helps policy- makers govern and regulate bio- based industries, and helps industry actors to identify and exploit new opportunities in the circular bioeconomy. Moreover, it provides important insights for all students and scholars concerned with renewable energy, sustainable development and climate change. Antje Klitkou has a PhD from Humboldt University, Berlin (1993). She has worked at the Nordic Institute for Studies in Innovation, Research and Education (NIFU), Oslo, Norway, since 2002, as Senior Researcher until 2014 and as Research Professor since 2014. She has research interests in research and innovation policy and the transition to a sustainable bioeconomy, energy and transport. She has been Project Coordinator for several international research projects, such as “SusValueWaste: Sustainable path creation for innovative value chains for organic waste products” (2015–19) on the transition to the bioeconomy, funded by the Research Council of Norway; “Technology opportunities in Nordic energy system transitions – TOP-NEST” (2011–15), funded by Nordic Energy Research; and “InnoDemo: Role of demonstration projects in innovation: Transition to sustainable energy and transport” (2013–15), funded by the Research Council of Norway. She has published several journal articles on bioeconomy topics. Arne Martin Fevolden is a Senior Researcher at NIFU. He holds a Master’s degree (cand. polit) in Economic Sociology and a PhD (Dr. polit.) in Innovation Studies from the University of Oslo. Much of his earlier research was concerned with the development of the ICT (information and communications industry) and defence industries. His more recent research has looked at the controversies surrounding biofuels and at potential valori- sation pathways for urban waste streams. Marco Capasso is a Senior Researcher at NIFU. He has worked in the scientific fields of econometrics, economic geography and economics of innovation, and his research has been published in a wide variety of scientific journals, including Industrial and Corporate Change, International Statistical Review, Regional Studies and Small Business Economics. He is currently participating in the projects “Sustainable path creation for innovative value chains for organic waste products”, funded by the Research Council of Norway, and “Where does the green economy grow? The geography of Nordic sustainability trans- itions”, funded by the Nordic Green Growth Research and Innovation Programme.

P ... C’ - (M + DM). The circulation of capital begins with M, a definite quantity of money advanced to purchase means of production and labor-power in the first phase of the circulation of capital. This initial money- capital M consists of two components: constant capital and variable capital; i.e.

Bruk av geologiske data kan ha store nytteverdier i kommunal sektor. Rapporten viser hvilke undersøkelser som er gjennomført både på fylkesnivå, regionalt og i Inderøy kommune, hvilken geologisk informasjon som foreligger og vil foreligge i nær fremtid, og mulig fremtidig bruk av denne informasjonen. I NGUs referansedatabaser er det til sammen registrert 39 ulike publikasjoner og kart som omhandler geologiske tema spesifikt i Inderøy kommune. Av dette er 5 kart i M 1:50.000 og 4 kart i 1:20.000. Foruten generell kartlegging av berggrunn og løsmasser, inkludert sand- og grusressurser, har mye av NGUs aktiviteter i kommunen vært knyttet til leting etter grunnvannsressurser og mulighet for å bruke løsmasser til infiltrasjon av avløpsvann. Det er gjort mye arbeid med å avklare muligheter for bruk av grus til infiltrasjon. Et steinbrudd på Oksål er vurdert med tanke på produksjon av nedmalt steinmjøl til landbruket. Videre er flere områder er undersøkt med tanke på å finne utnyttbare forekomster av grunnvann til vannforsyning.

Welcome to the Tre Lag Stevne in South Saint Paul, Minnesota. We were last in the Twin Cities area in 2009 in this same location. In a metropolitan area of this size it is not as easy to see the results of the Norwegian immigration as in smaller towns and rural communities. But the evidence is there if you look for it. This year’s speakers will tell the story of the Norwegians who contributed to the richness of American culture through literature, art, architecture, politics, medicine and science. You may recognize a few of their names, but many are unsung heroes who quietly added strands to the fabric of America and the world. We hope to astonish you with the diversity of their talents. Our tour will take us to the first Norwegian church in America, which was moved from Muskego, Wisconsin to the grounds of Luther Seminary,. We’ll stop at Mindekirken, established in 1922 with the mission of retaining Norwegian heritage. It continues that mission today. We will also visit Norway House, the newest organization to promote Norwegian connectedness. Enjoy the program, make new friends, reconnect with old friends, and continue to learn about our shared heritage.

In response to the last Government‟s Low Carbon Transition Plan, published in July 2009, this Greenhouse Gas Action Plan (GHGAP) has been progressively developed by an industry partnership to deliver an initial reduction of 3Mt CO2e GHG emissions by 2020. Building upon an earlier Framework for Action published in February 2010, the first phase of this delivery plan sets out the process that will be implemented by a broad-based industry-led partnership, to encourage farmers and growers to take actions that will reduce their emissions over time.

  • Hands-On Explorations of Plane Transformations
    Hands-On Explorations of Plane Transformations James King University of Washington Department of Mathematics [email protected] http://www.math.washington.edu/~king The “Plan” • In this session, we will explore exploring. • We have a big math toolkit of transformations to think about. • We have some physical objects that can serve as a hands- on toolkit. • We have geometry relationships to think about. • So we will try out at many combinations as we can to get an idea of how they work out as a real-world experience. • I expect that we will get some new ideas from each other as we try out different tools for various purposes. Our Transformational Case of Characters • Line Reflection • Point Reflection (a rotation) • Translation • Rotation • Dilation • Compositions of any of the above Our Physical Toolkit • Patty paper • Semi-reflective plastic mirrors • Graph paper • Ruled paper • Card Stock • Dot paper • Scissors, rulers, protractors Reflecting a point • As a first task, we will try out tools for line reflection of a point A to a point B. Then reflecting a shape. A • Suggest that you try the semi-reflective mirrors and the patty paper for folding and tracing. Also, graph paper is an option. Also, regular paper and cut-outs M • Note that pencils and overhead pens work on patty paper but not ballpoints. Also not that overhead dots are easier to see with the mirrors. B • Can we (or your students) conclude from your C tool that the mirror line is the perpendicular bisector of AB? Which tools best let you draw this reflection? • When reflecting shapes, consider how to reflect some polygon when it is not all on one side of the mirror line.
