Abu-Danso Emmanuel Kafui | Magnetic Nano-composites for Metals Removal and Recovery from Wastewater Read more | University of Eastern Finland | PhD project | 29175 | Magnetic Nano-composites for Metals Removal and Recovery from WastewaterThe goal of proposed research is to synthesize magnetic nano-composites (MNCs) and their application for the removal of toxic metals (e.g., arsenic, chromium, lead, cadmium, mercury etc.) from wastewater. Cellulose has been used as precursor, which is regarded as the most abundant and renewable biopolymer in nature. Cellulose-and its composites (using chitosan and clay) have been tuned and experimental factors are optimized such that MNCs are effective across a wide pH range, exhibit high metals? uptake capacities and fast kinetics. MNC will be recovered simply by applying the magnetic field. It will prevent the escape of nano-particles into the environment. Thus, this project addresses a sustainable solution for metals contaminated wastewater that safeguards precious water resources by removing and recovering metals from contaminated wastewaters. Based on the batch optimization studies, column and pilot studies are in progress for metals removal and recovery.Close summary |

Muurinen Johanna | Towards sustainable animal production ? How farming affects the environmental resistome? Read more | Helsingin yliopisto | Post doc project | 74400 | Towards sustainable animal production ? How farming affects the environmental resistome?Antimicrobial drug resistance threatens the future of humankind, but the problem is environmental origin. Soils are known to harbor immense amount of microbes carrying intrinsic resistance features against antimicrobial drugs and genetic elements encoding these features are known as the environmental resistome. Antimicrobials are used in livestock production and animal manure is used as a fertilizer. Manure application affects the microbial communities in agroecosystems, causing selection for antimicrobial resistance, increasing the mobility of resistance genes and thus elevates the risk of resistance gene migration to bacteria capable of causing diseases.The aim of this project is to try to find a safe operating space for animal production by answering the following questions: Are the farm resistomes different if the use of antimicrobials is on different level? How much and how often manure can be land-applied to agricultural soils without increasing the genetic mobility? Close summary |

Koskue Veera | Nutrient recovery from wastewaters using bioelectrochemical methods Read more | TTY Tampere | PhD project | 72000 | Nutrient recovery from wastewaters using bioelectrochemical methodsRavinteet ovat kaikelle elämälle välttämättömiä, ja erityisen paljon niitä käytetään lannoitteina maataloudessa. Tämänhetkinen lannoitetuotanto ei ole kestävällä pohjalla, sillä mineraaliravinnevarat hupenevat ja energiankulutus on suurta. Tästä syystä ravinteiden tehokkaampaan kierrättämiseen tulisi panostaa. Suuri osa maataloudessa käytetyistä ravinteista päätyy yhdyskuntien jätevesiin, joista ne mahdollisesti luonnonvesistöihin päädyttyään aiheuttavat ympäristöongelmia, kuten rehevöitymistä. Ravinteiden talteenotto ja kierrättäminen jätevesistä on lupaava vaihtoehto, joka samalla vähentää ravinteiden luonnonvesistöille aiheuttamia ongelmia. Tässä väitöstyöprojektissa ravinteita otetaan talteen jätevesivirroista hyödyntämällä energiaa säästäviä bioelektrokemiallisia menetelmiä. Bioelektrokemiassa bakteerien luonnollista aineenvaihduntaa hyödynnetään sähkövirran tuottamiseen niin, että ulkoisen energian tarve pienenee. Ionimuotoiset ravinteet otetaan talteen membraanien avulla.Close summary |

Read more | Oulun yliopisto | Post doc project | 76700 | Comprehensive utilization of industrial waste biomass streams into important platform chemical and water purification material.Hankkeen tavoitteet:1. Hyödyntää eri teollisuuden alojen jätebiomassavirtoja valmistamalla niistä tärkeää peruskemikaalia eli levuliinihappoa. Levuliinihappo on tärkeä kemikaali, koska siitä voidaan valmistaa useita muita yhdisteitä sekä tuotteita, joita perinteisesti valmistetaan fossiilisista polttoaineista. Ko. yhdisteitä ja tuotteita käytetään mm. lääkeaineina, lääkkeiden valmistuksessa ja biopolttoaineina. 2. Kehittää levuliinihapon valmistusprosessia siten, että saanto saadaan mahdollisimman korkeaksi. Tarkoituksena on saada valmistusprosessista teollisesti kannattavampi, jotta levuliinihappoa voidaan käyttää lähtöaineena yhä useamman tuotteen valmistuksessa ja sitä kautta vähentää riippuvuuttamme fossiilisista polttoaineista. 3. Hyödyntää levuliinihapon valmistusprosessissa muodostuvia sivutuotteita eli humiineja vedenpuhdistusmateriaaleina. Tavoitteena on käyttää humiineja sellaisenaan ja lisäksi muokata niistä kemiallisesti vielä tehokkaampia vedenpuhdistusmateriaaleja. Close summary |
Li Xin | In situ design of metal organic framework based membrane for sustainable drinking water treatment Read more | University of Eastern Finland | Post doc project | 65200 | In situ design of metal organic framework based membrane for sustainable drinking water treatmentThis project dedicates to in situ design metal organic framework (MOF) based membrane for sustainable drinking water treatment, especially focusing on the high-efficiency removal of heavy metals and micropollutants. Based on the rational design, MOF-based membrane with well-defined MOFs will be obtained by combining the synthesis of MOFs with the fabrication of polymer membrane. The in situ formation process (e.g., self-assemble and contra-diffusion) of MOFs will be analyzed. The effects of in situ introduced MOFs on the structure-property relationship of obtained membrane will be explored. More attentions will focus on the removal process and mechanism of MOF-based membrane for heavy metals (e.g., Cr6+ and Pb2+) and micropollutants (e.g., pesticides and pharmaceuticals) from aquatic environment. This project will solve the problem of low pollutants removal efficiency for traditional membrane and offer technical support for membrane application in sustainable drinking water treatmentClose summary |

Nagy Valeria | Establishment of efficient photoautotrophic biohydrogen production in green algae Read more | Turku University | Post doc project | 29150 | Establishment of efficient photoautotrophic biohydrogen production in green algaeAmong the potential renewable energy sources, photobiological H2 production carried out by algae stands out as an appealing choice, because it does not require arable land and upon the combustion of H2, only pure water is produced. Algal hydrogenases have a very high theoretical efficiency, but it is strongly limited by their extreme O2 sensitivity.Recently, the groups of Dr. Allahverdiyeva-Rinne (University of Turku) and Dr. Szilvia Z. T¢th (BRC Szeged) independently developed two methods to prevent the inactivation of algal hydrogenases by O2, without imposing a severe stress effect on the algal cultures. In the frame of the project, Dr. Val‚ria Nagy will compare the two methods, and further improve them by testing various physiological conditions. In addition, photosynthetic mutants, affected in pathways competing with hydrogen production will be also studied. As an outcome, we expect a very significant improvement regarding the biohydrogen production of green algae. Close summary |

Read more | Helsinki University | PhD project | 53500 | Mapping of future climate risks in Helsinki. The role of urban climate governance in climate risk formation and alleviation.Scientific community understands and models fairly well current climate risks, especially the biophysical part of it (IPCC 2014). However, literature suggests that the socio-economic factors play crucial role in climate risk formation (IPCC 2014, Räsänen et al. 2016). Additionally, our research has shown that little is known and little is being done in regards to future climate risk assessments (Jurgilevich et al. 2017). However, analyzing future climate risks, and particularly the future socio-economic factors, is crucial for current policy-making and urban planning.This research contributes to exploring the role of socio-economic factors in climate risk formation and alleviation. It also uses the identified conceptual and methodological approaches to map, assess and explore future climate risk drivers for Helsinki. Focus is on the dynamic changes in socio-economic and spatial drivers, such as city development, population structure, well-being, state of economy, infrastructure. Close summary |

Tutkimuskysymyksinä ovat: 1) miten ympäristötekijät on huomioitu julkisissa hankinnoissa? ja 2) kuinka julkisilla hankinnoilla voidaan vaikuttaa elinympäristön ja luonnon monimuotoisuuden säilyttämiseen?Close summary |
Korpilo Silviya | Dynamic people, dynamic forests: analysis of recreational use and movement in Helsinki?s urban forests Read more | Helsinki University | PhD project | 1300 | Dynamic people, dynamic forests: analysis of recreational use and movement in Helsinki?s urban forestsThe aims of this study are: 1) to gain further knowledge of what factors influence human spatial behaviour(physical movement and route choice) inside the urban forest and 2) how these factors can be managed to reduce the level of wear spatially. More specifically, the research aims to: 1) develop a participatory method for data collection using mobile phone GPS tracking and motivation questionnaires; and 2) outline implications for urban forest planning and management. The research presents a pilot case study in Helsinki Central Park (Keskuspuisto) to demonstrate the practical application of this methodology. Close summary |
Kärkkäinen Jari | Intentional minds - A nonantroposentric view on valuer and the value of natural complexes Read more | Turun yliopisto | PhD project | 48000 | Intentional minds - A nonantroposentric view on valuer and the value of natural complexesTutkimuksen aiheena on selventää sitä, miten luonnon erilaiset koosteet, kuten ekosysteemit tai bioottiset yhteisöt saavat arvonsa. Niitä pidetään arvokkaina, mutta syy sille on epäselvä, tai olemassa olevat selitykset ovat epätyydyttäviä.Objektiivisen arvon teoriat eivät pysty tyydyttävästi käsittelemään luonnossa esiintyvien koosteiden arvoa, koska sanotut koosteet ovat luonteeltaan epämääräisiä. Tutkimuksessa esitetään koosteiden arvon ja niiden määrittelyn olevan arvottajasta riippuvaa, subjektiivista. Tutkimuksen erityisenä tavoitteena on määritellä arvottaja mielelliseksi toimijaksi, joka suuntaa intentionsa arvottamaansa asiaan. Tällainen toimija on ensisijaisesti intentionaalinen mieli, riippumatta sen fyysisestä kantajasta. Eli arvottaja voi olla jokin muukin olio kuin ihminen. Close summary |
Lassila Maija | What kinds of imaginaries of future and conditions for life large-scale mining projects together with the territorial politics of the state produce in Northern Finland Read more | Helsingin yliopisto | PhD project | 26020 | What kinds of imaginaries of future and conditions for life large-scale mining projects together with the territorial politics of the state produce in Northern FinlandKaivosteollisuus on viime vuosina laajentunut yhä uusille alueille, kuten luonnonsuojelualueille, pohjoisemmaksi tai alkuperäiskansojen maille. Suomi on kansainvälisen vertailun mukaan globaalisti houkuttelevimpia maita kaivosyhtiöille suotuisan poliittisen ilmapiirin, matalien verojen ja toimintaympäristön vuoksi. Kehitysmaatutkimuksen alaan kuuluvassa väitöskirjassani tutkin, millaisia tulevaisuuden näkemyksiä, ympäristön muutoksia ja elämän jatkuvuuden ehtoja suunnitteluvaiheessa olevat kaivoshankkeet ja Suomen valtion alueita ja resursseja rajaava ja hallinnoiva ja kaivoksia suosiva politiikka tuottavat paikallisyhteisöille Pohjois-Suomessa. Tutkimukseen valitut paikalliset ihmiset ovat saamelaisia ja muita paikallisia asukkaita, joilla on sukupolvien mittainen yhteys omiin ympäristöihinsä ja joille ympäristö on merkityksellinen ja vuorovaikutuksellinen asia pikemmin kuin pelkkä hyödyke.Close summary |

Tutkin miten ei-valtiollisten organisaatioiden (NGO) lobbarit näkevät työnsä ja lobbaamisen käytänteet arjen tasolla.Tutkimukseni keskittyy EU:n elintarvikekauppapolitiikassa lobbaaviin ei-valtiollisiin toimijoihin: miten lobbausagendasta päätetään? Syntyykö vastuuvelvollisuutta (accountability) intressiryhmille, joita lobbarit edustavat EU:ssa? Onko NGO-lobbareilla yhteinen käsitys siitä, mitkä ovat lobbaamisen käytänteet EU:ssa? Tutkimuksellani laajennan käsitystä lobbaamisen tavoista, EU-lobbareista ja tuon esille uutta tietoa vaikuttamisen strategisista valinnoista. Kokonaisuudessaan tutkimukseni sijoittuu kansainvälisen politiikan tutkimuksen ympäristötutkimuksen ja vaikuttamisen (advocacy) tutkimuksen risteyskohtaan. Close summary |

The intertwined aspects of teacher learning, school culture and social paradigm framing sustainability education in every day life situations.Väitöstutkimuksessa selvitetään tekijöitä, jotka edistävät ja estävät ekologiseen kestävyyteen liittyvien kysymysten käsittelyä ja kestävän koulukulttuurin kehittymistä koulun arjessa. Suomen peruskoulujärjestelmä tarjoaa suuren potentiaalin kestävyyteen kasvattajana. Tavoitteena on lisätä ymmärrystä yhteiskunnallisten kysymysten, kulttuuristen toimintatapojen, opettajan oppimisen ja arkipäivän tilanteiden yhteenkietoutuneisuudesta. Ymmärrys vuorovaikutussuhteista auttaa kouluja ja muita ympäristökasvatustoimijoita ohjaamaan tulevia sukupolvia maapallon ekologisien reunaehtojen ja kestävän tulevaisuuden edellytysten sisäistämiseen. Väitöstutkimuksen tulokset levitetään laajaan käyttöön opetushallinnossa ja ruohonjuuritasolla. Väitöstutkimuksesta julkaistaan myös yleistajuinen kirja kasvattajien käyttöön. Nesslingin tuki mahdollistaa kokopäiväisen työskentelyn, jolloin väitöstutkimus ja yleistajuinen kirja valmistuvat tutkimusrahoituksen loppuun mennessä.Close summary |
Nieminen Eini | Ecological consequences and social legitimacy of voluntary nature conservation Read more | Jyväskylän yliopisto | PhD project | 24000 | Ecological consequences and social legitimacy of voluntary nature conservationTutkimuksessa selvitetään, millaista vaihtokauppaa käydään ekologisten arvojen ja taloudellisen tehokkuuden välillä, kun luontoa suojellaan maanomistajan vapaaehtoisuuteen perustuen. Lisäksi selvitetään, millaisia ajatuksia vapaaehtoisuuden seurauksena yksittäiselle maanomistajalle luonnonsuojelussa siirtyvä valta ja vastuu herättävät toisaalta maanomistajissa ja toisaalta maata omistamattomissa. Ratkaisuja vapaaehtoisen suojelun haasteisiin etsitään tarkastelemalla tapoja uudistaa suojelusuunnittelua sekä tutkimalla muiden kuin lakisääteiseen suojeluun perustuvien keinojen mahdollisuutta parantaa elinympäristöjen säilymistä ja luonnonsuojelun hyväksyttävyyttä. Tutkimustapauksina toimivat yksityisten maanomistajien vapaaehtoisuuden varaan perustettu soidensuojelun täydennysohjelma sekä elinympäristöjen tilan edistämistä koskeva kansallinen arviointi. Tutkimus toteutetaan PhD projectnä.Close summary |
Peixoto Ines | What counts as sustainable in wool fibre markets? An inquiry into a creative knitting field and a standard-setting field Read more | Aalto University | Post doc project | 63810 | What counts as sustainable in wool fibre markets? An inquiry into a creative knitting field and a standard-setting fieldWool is a renewable and biodegradable natural fibre but it is uncertain that the wool yarn that we knit or that factories use to weave our clothes is sustainable throughout the whole supply chain. Should we buy organic, ethical, or responsible wool, and how do these labels resonate with the values of farmers, yarn makers, garment producers, and creative users? This research project examines how actors negotiate the values and evaluative principles that constitute socially constructed notions of sustainability in a particular context and how these are used to produce societal resources that support sustainable production. It zooms in to focus on local solutions produced through political consumerism, creative participation and entrepreneuring. It zooms out to study global solutions constructed in standardisation and private regulation initiatives. The project contributes to a societal discussion on the sustainability of wool by engaging with local and global stakeholders.Close summary |
Puumala Mikko Matias | Moral demandingness and the adaptive limits of human morality Read more | Turun yliopisto | PhD project | 104120 | Moral demandingness and the adaptive limits of human moralityTutkimuksen tavoitteena on osoittaa, ettei yksilöiden moraalinen velvollisuus torjua ilmastonmuutosta ole riippuvainen yksilöiden moraalipsykologisista kyvyistä motivoitua toimimaan moraalin vaatimalla tavalla. Yksittäiset moraaliarvostelmat, kuten ?yksityisautoilu on väärin? tai ?on väärin syödä lihaa? voivat tuntua kohtuuttomilta ja epäintuitiivisilta. Tämä johtuu siitä, ettei ihmisen intuitio ole kehittynyt käsittelemään maailmanlaajuisia ympäristöongelmia. Tutkimuksessani haetaan oikeutusta toiminnalle yksilöiden intresseistä huolimatta, mikäli se on moraalisesti perusteltavissa. Tutkimuksessani tarkastellaan sitä mahdollisuutta, että moraali todellisuudessa vaatii ilmastonmuutoksen aktiivista torjumista jokaiselta yksilöltä, riippumatta siitä, kokevatko he sen velvollisuudekseen vai eivät.Close summary |
