<p>This report presents the primary development process of an innovative milk foamer. The project is structured as the primary development process that is used at Electrolux Floor Care and Small Appliances AB, Global Primary Development and Innovation department in Stockholm, Sweden. The aim was to develop a milk foamer with innovative solutions to provide Electrolux with a unique product. The objective was to create a product that highly meets customer requirements and in the same time is feasible to develop into a selling product. All the aspects regarding a consumer product had to be considered. To create innovative solutions thorough investigations of the physics behind foaming and foam are studied and documented. The difference in foam quality when using different ways of foaming is documented and possible explanations is discussed. The primary development process range from pre-study and customer research to designing prototypes and verifications. Most of the report deals with standalone solutions but there is also a part of the report that deals with integrated solutions and cooperating solutions that would be used together with espresso machines. The result is a variety of concepts and four fully working standalone prototypes. Two prototypes are further developed and are highly interesting to Electrolux.</p>

Šio magistrantūros studijų baigiamojo darbo tikslas yra išnagrinėti autoklavinio poringojo betono savybes į kurio mišinio sudėtį dedama akytojo betono gamybos atliekų. Akyta cementbetonio struktūra sudaryta naudojant putas. Darbas susideda iš teorinės ir eksperimentinės dalių. Teorinėje dalyje atlikta literatūros analizė, pateiktos bendrosios žinios apie akytuosius betonus, jų žaliavas, klasifikaciją bei kai kurias fizikines ir mechanines savybes. Autoklavinis putų cementbetonis nagrinėjamas kaip viena iš akytojo betono atmainų. Nagrinėjami putokšliai, lyginamos iš jų išplaktų putų savybės. Aptariamas akyto betono atliekų panaudojimas gaminant putų cementbetonį. Šiuo tikslu buvo nagrinėjami įvairūs literatūros šaltiniai, lyginamos įvairių autorių sukauptos žinios ir tyrimų rezultatai. Eksperimentinėje dalyje tiriamos putokšlių ir iš jų išplaktų putų savybės. Nagrinėjamas akytojo betono gamybos atliekų panaudojimas. Aprašoma putų ir betono atliekų kiekio įtaka putų cementbetonio tankiui, gniuždomajam stipriui ir gaminių struktūrai. / The point of this postgraduate studies final work is research the autoclaved porous concrete characteristics, in whose composition is waste of porous concreat. The porous structure is make by foam. This work consists of theoretical and experimental parts. The teoretical part of this work consist of literature analysis, there are given general knowledge about porous concrete, materials, classifications, physical and mechanical characteristics. The autoclaved foam cement concrete was researched like one of the active concrete species. There were analysed foamers, comparables internals of foams. Considerating the waste of porous concreat utilization maiking foam cement concrete. For this purpose were researched various information publikations, compared the cumulated knowledges and experimental results of various authors. In experimental part are described foamers and from their mades foams characteristics. Reserching the waste of porous concreat utilization. Described quantity of foams and concrete wastes influence to density, strength and composition of foam cement concrete.
