  1. 16. Polymerization of isatin towards polymers for anion exchange membranes and gas separation applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simone Facchini; [2022]
    Keywords : organic chemistry; membranes; isatin; polymers; Chemistry;

    Abstract : In a world where the problem of energy resources, pollution and all aspects related to these issues becomes more and more dominant, a greater commitment is needed in the search for solutions. The goal of this project is to make a contribution to the research and development of new materials to reduce the environmental impact in some fields. READ MORE

  2. 17. Synthesis and Investigation of Nitrile-Containing Polymers Inspired by Lignin

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Tobias Lindborg; [2022]
    Keywords : Lignin; Polymer; Renewable; Bioresource; Glass transition temperature; Nitrile; Polymer technology; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The lignin-inspired derivatives coniferyl aldehyde and sinapyl aldehyde were used to prepare nitrile-containing methacrylate monomers with the aim to synthesize bio-based polymers exhibiting high glass transition temperatures (Tgs). The aldehydes were initially transformed to the corresponding nitriles and then underwent methacrylation before being polymerised by free-radical polymerisation. READ MORE

  3. 18. Evaluation of using bioplastics for lab consumables

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Lovisa Mäepea Nilsson; Emelie Gunnarsson; Sara Mardini; Fartun Nuur Yusuf; Jesper Nyström; [2022]
    Keywords : bioplastics; Biotage; sustainability; green washing; biopolymers; PLA; bio-based; environment; PHA; PP; PE; chemical properties; bioplaster; hållbarhet; bio-polymerer; bio-baserad; miljövänlig;

    Abstract : The use of plastic has increased markedly in recent years which has led to more fossil fuels being used and more plastic in nature. This is a literature study that researches on how bio- based plastics can be used instead of plastics made from fossil fuels. READ MORE

  4. 19. Mapping Carbon Storage and Potential Bioenergy Production in Södertälje Using High-resolution Biotope Database

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Lisa Åkerström; [2022]
    Keywords : Carbon storage; Carbon; Bioenergy; Bioenergy production; GIS; GIS-analysis; Scenario analysis; Biotope database; High-resolution biotope database; energy forests; CHP; heating plant; Bio-CCS; BECCS; carbon; carbon storage; carbon storage map; biotope database; Biotopdatabasen;

    Abstract : Global warming is caused by the human induced increase of Greenhouse Gases (GHG) in the atmosphere. GHG emissions need to be reduced, and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil sources ceased to mitigate global warming. Energy production and use is a main contributor to fossil sourced emissions in Europe. READ MORE

  5. 20. Alternative fuels for Swedish short sea shipping and inland waterways: Techno-economic study

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Julien Maszelin; [2022]
    Keywords : Alternative fuels Comparison Short sea shipping Inland waterways Sweden Biofuels Fischer-Tropsch Methanol Hydrogen Ammonia Fossil fuels Sustainable transportation;

    Abstract : Climate change is raising huge challenges for all industries worldwide. It is mainly due to anthropogenic activity and energy consumption which is the cause for emissions of greenhouse gas (GHG) among other environmental impacts and is expected to have huge impact on our societies globally.
