The aim of this Bachelor's thesis was to investigate potentialities of online-monitoring the efficiency of small scale wastewater treatment systems. Evolving legislation currently sets minimum boundaries of relative decrease in levels of phosphorus, nitrogen and BOD in abovementioned applications, yet no monitoring requirements for such systems are determined. Inherently, no applicable monitoring system for these parameters exist. However, some measuring methods offer potentialities for estimating the reduction of these certain parameters in a wastewater stream treated in a small scale system. Such methods could be found for example among electronic noses, measuring of electronic conductivity or turbidity.

The thesis is concerned with the online shopping behavior of older adults, who in this study are at least 60 years old. At the moment, the population is ageing and consumers are buying more and more via the Internet. The objective of the thesis is to understand the large group of older adults in Finland as online customers.The study explores older consumers’ adoption of online shopping with a qualitative research, and it is situated in the research tradition of hermeneutic phenomenology. Phenomenology focuses on the life-world of people. The empirical data was collected by three focus groups with 13 participants altogether. The focus group conversations brought forth that there is not tremendous difference in the motives of older consumers to shop online compared to other age groups. The study strengthened the previous conception of a change toward more ageless market. However, online stores should be designed to accommodate some special needs of older consumers as they occasionally struggle with the logic of websites. Finnish older consumers have adopted online shopping because of perceived convenience and because of tolerable perceived risk during first online shopping experience. Positive experiences strengthen positive attitude toward electronic channel.
