1. 1. Leveraging green hydrogen to decarbonise the aviation industry : A case study on electrofuels in Sweden

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

   Author : Jakob Bergene; Jonathan Bruchhausen; [2023]
   Keywords : Electrofuel; e-fuel; electrokerosene; e-kerosene; SAF; sustainable aviation fuel; sustainable aviation; complementarity formation mechanisms; technology value chains; TVC; Techno-economic analysis; TEA; Elektrobränsle; e-bränsle; elektrofotogen; e-fotogen; SAF; sustainable aviation fuel; sustainable aviation; komplementära formationsmekanismer; technology value chains; TVC; Techno-economic analysis; TEA;

   Abstract : For the EU to reach its 2050 climate targets the aviation industry that is highly dependent on fossil fuels needs to drastically reduce its emissions. In the decarbonisation of the aviation industry drop-in sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) have been identified as a promising solution to abate the industry’s emissions. READ MORE

3. 2. 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.

4. 3. Techno-economic assessment for optimised renewable jet fuel production in Sweden

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

   Author : Jenny Trinh; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The aviation industry contributes to more than 2% of global human-inducedCO2-emissions, and it is expected to increase to 3% by 2050 as demand for aviation grows. As the industry is still dependent on conventional jet fuel (CJF), one of the key elements to help decarbonise the industry is to transition to renewable jet fuel (RJF). READ MORE

5. 4. Fields of Dreams: Scenarios to Produce Selected Biomass and Renewable Jet Fuels that Fulfill European Union Sustainability Criteria

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Torry van Slyke; [2019]
   Keywords : aviation biofuel; Camelina sativa; forestry residues; land use change; Renewable Energy Directive; sustainable development;

   Abstract : Aviation greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have risen faster than any other transport sector to double between 1990 and 2005. Such emissions from aviation could increase another 700 percent globally, and at least 150 percent in the European Union (EU), by 2050 due to continuously increasing consumer demand. READ MORE

6. 5. Development of a modern catalytic system for the production of C3+ aliphatic alcohols by the Fischer-Tropsch method

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Aravind Ganesan; [2019]
   Keywords : syngas; Cobalt; Fischer-Tropsch; alcohols; hydrocarbons; syngas; kobolt; Fischer-Tropsch; alkoholer; kolväten;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with converting a mixture of H2 and CO, also referred to as syngas or producer gas, to higher or mixed alcohols and other fuels through a process called Fischer Tropsch Synthesis (FTS). It is a beneficial pathway that minimizes the dependence on oil and similar fossil fuels which contribute to rapid climate change by releasing harmful greenhouse gases. READ MORE
