Työn tavoitteena on selvittää, kuinka kuitupuun otantamittausprosessia voidaan tehostaa osana sellutehtaan puunkäsittelyä toimitusketjun johtamisen keinoin Stora Enson Enocellin tehtaalla. Työssä syvennytään kuitupuun mittauksen perusteisiin ja menetelmiin sekä selvitetään mittausprosessin keskeisimmät ongelmakohdat kohdeympäristössä. Ongelmakohtien ratkaisemiseksi tutustutaan toimitusketjun johtamisen teorioihin, joiden avulla muodostetaan kuvaus parhaasta mahdollisesta vaihtoehdosta uudeksi otantamittausmenetelmäksi. Ensimmäisessä vaiheessa kohdeympäristöksi rajataan Enocellin tehdas, mutta uuden menetelmän laajemman soveltuvuuden selvittämiseksi tarkastellaan työn lopuksi myös muita määrättyjä Stora Enson tehtaita. Työn tuloksena on perusteltu päätelmä siitä, mikä otantamittausmenetelmä on sekä Stora Enson että tutkimuksen teettäjänä toimivan logistiikkapalveluita ja materiaalinkäsittelykoneita tuottavan Mantsinen Group Ltd Oy:n intresseihin parhaiten sopiva. Työn lopuksi annetaan suositukset parhaaksi valitun menetelmän käyttöönoton aikatauluksi ja toimiksi.

Uudenmaan rannikkoalueet ovat voimakkaasti rehevöityneet. Saaristossa alusveden happipitoisuudet kääntyivät yleisesti jyrkkään laskuun 2000-luvulla ja tänä päivänä saariston pohjien pinta-alasta ja myös vesitilavuudesta huomattava osa on loppukesällä pohjaeläimille, kaloille ja eläinplanktonille elinkelvotonta happivajeen takia. Tapahtuneet muutokset ovat parantaneet useiden särkikalojen lisääntymisolosuhteita sisälahdilla samalla kun monien muiden kalalajien elinolosuhteet ulompana saaristossa ovat heikentyneet. Hapettomuudesta johtuva sisäinen ravinnekuormitus lienee tärkeä syy sille, että Uudenmaan saaristoalueiden vesien tilassa ei ole havaittavissa kohenemisen merkkejä. Käytännössä kotimaisen ravinnekuormituksen vähentämistoimenpiteet ovat olleet liian tehottomia.

Tässä kandidaatintyössä käsitellään aurinkolämmitystä, sen hyödyntämiseen käytettävää tekniikkaa ja käytön laajuutta maailmanlaajuisesti. Työn tavoitteena on esitellä yleisimmät aurinkokeräintyypit ja niiden toimintaperiaatteet. Työssä selvitetään eri aurinkokeräinten asennettu kapasiteetti Suomessa ja muualla maailmalla. Lisäksi työssä on esitetty yleisimmät aurinkolämmön varastointitavat sekä kytkentäratkaisut Suomen oloissa. Työssä keskitytään käsittelemään ensisijaisesti nestekiertoisia aurinkokeräimiä niiden yleisyyden vuoksi, mutta myös ilmakiertoiset ja kattamattomat keräimet esitellään lyhyesti. Lisäksi pohditaan aurinkolämmityksen potentiaalia Suomessa ja maailmalla.

This study is made as a part of the Chembaltic (Risks of Maritime Transportation of Chemicals in Baltic Sea) project which gathers information on the chemicals transported in the Baltic Sea. The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of handling volumes of liquid bulk chemicals (including liquefied gases) in the Baltic Sea ports and to find out what the most transported liquid bulk chemicals in the Baltic Sea are. Oil and oil products are also viewed in this study but only in a general level. Oils and oil products may also include chemical-related substances (e.g. certain bio-fuels which belong to MARPOL annex II category) in some cargo statistics. Chemicals in packaged form are excluded from the study. Most of the facts about the transport volumes of chemicals presented in this study are based on secondary written sources of Scandinavian, Russian, Baltic and international origin. Furthermore, statistical sources, academic journals, periodicals, newspapers and in later years also different homepages on the Internet have been used as sources of information. Chemical handling volumes in Finnish ports were examined in more detail by using a nationwide vessel traffic system called PortNet. Many previous studies have shown that the Baltic Sea ports are annually handling more than 11 million tonnes of liquid chemicals transported in bulk. Based on this study, it appears that the number may be even higher. The liquid bulk chemicals account for approximately 4 % of the total amount of liquid bulk cargoes handled in the Baltic Sea ports. Most of the liquid bulk chemicals are handled in Finnish and Swedish ports and their proportion of all liquid chemicals handled in the Baltic Sea is altogether over 50 %. The most handled chemicals in the Baltic Sea ports are methanol, sodium hydroxide solution, ammonia, sulphuric and phosphoric acid, pentanes, aromatic free solvents, xylenes, methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and ethanol and ethanol solutions. All of these chemicals are handled at least hundred thousand tonnes or some of them even over 1 million tonnes per year, but since chemical-specific data from all the Baltic Sea countries is not available, the exact tonnages could not be calculated in this study. In addition to these above-mentioned chemicals, there are also other high volume chemicals handled in the Baltic Sea ports (e.g. ethylene, propane and butane) but exact tonnes are missing. Furthermore, high amounts of liquid fertilisers, such as solution of urea and ammonium nitrate in water, are transported in the Baltic Sea. The results of the study can be considered indicative. Updated information about transported chemicals in the Baltic Sea is the first step in the risk assessment of the chemicals. The chemical-specific transportation data help to target hazard or e.g. grounding/collision risk evaluations to chemicals that are handled most or have significant environmental hazard potential. Data gathered in this study will be used as background information in later stages of the Chembaltic project when the risks of the chemicals transported in the Baltic Sea are assessed to highlight the chemicals that require special attention from an environmental point of view in potential marine accident situations in the Baltic Sea area.

The management of port-related supply chains is challenging due to the complex and heterogeneous operations of the ports with several actors and processes. That is why the importance of information sharing is emphasised in the ports. However, the information exchange between different port-related actors is often cumbersome and it still involves a lot of manual work and paper. Major ports and port-related actors usually have advanced information systems in daily use but these systems are seldom interoperable with each other, which prevents economies of scale to be reached. Smaller ports and companies might not be equipped with electronic data transmission at all. This is the final report of the Mobile port (MOPO) project, which has sought ways to improve the management and control of port-related sea and inland traffic with the aid of ICT technologies. The project has studied port community systems (PCS) used worldwide, evaluated the suitability of a PCS for the Finnish port operating environment and created a pilot solution of a Finnish PCS in the port of HaminaKotka. Further, the dry port concept and its influences on the transportation system have been explored. The Mobile Port project comprised of several literature reviews, interviews of over 50 port-related logistics and/or ICT professionals, two different kinds of simulation models as well as designing and implementing of the pilot solution of the Finnish PCS. The results of these multiple studies are summarised in this report. Furthermore, recommendations for future actions and the topics for further studies are addressed in the report. The study revealed that the information sharing in a typical Finnish port-related supply chain contains several bottlenecks that cause delays in shipments and waste resources. The study showed that many of these bottlenecks could be solved by building a port community system for the Finnish port community. Almost 30 different kinds of potential services or service entities of a Finnish PCS were found out during the study. The basic requirements, structure, interfaces and operation model of the Finnish PCS were also defined in the study. On the basis of the results of the study, a pilot solution of the Finnish PCS was implemented in the port of HaminaKotka. The pilot solution includes a Portconnect portal for the Finnish port community system (available at https://www.portconnect.fi) and two pilot applications, which are a service for handling the information flows concerning the movements of railway wagons and a service for handling the information flows between Finnish ports and Finland-Russian border. The study also showed that port community systems can be used to improve the environmental aspects of logistics in two different ways: 1) PCSs can bring direct environmental benefits and 2) PCSs can be used as an environmental tool in a port community. On the basis of the study, the development of the Finnish port community system should be continued by surveying other potential applications for the Finnish PCS. It is also important to study if there is need and resources to extend the Finnish PCS to operate in several ports or even on a national level. In the long run, it could be reasonable to clarify whether there would be possibilities to connect the Finnish PCS as a part of Baltic Sea wide, European-wide or even worldwide maritime and port-related network in order to get the best benefit from the system
