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. Evaluation of the new Power & Biomass to Liquid (PBtL) concept for production of biofuels from woody biomass

   University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

   Author : Robert Dahl; [2021]
   Keywords : PBtL; Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis; Biofuels; ASF product distribution; Aspen Plus; PBtL; Fischer-Tropsch syntes; Biobränslen; ASF produktfördelning; Aspen Plus;

   Abstract : I den här rapporten utvärderas det nya konceptet Power & Biomass to Liquid (PBtL). PBtL är ett alternativ till den tidigare och mer etablerade Biomass to Liquid (BtL) processen. Med PBtL förbättras utbytet av kol jämfört med BtL genom att elektricitet läggs till i processen. READ MORE

6. 5. Modelling the Production of Biofuels via Olefins Oligomerisation

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Nima Mirzaei; [2020]
   Keywords : Biofuels; Mathematical Modelling; Process Simulation; Oligomerisation; Fischer-Tropsch; Biobränslen; Matematisk Modellering; Process Simulering; Oligomerisering; Fischer-Tropsch;

   Abstract : The technical feasibility of gasoline and diesel range hydrocarbons production through oligomerisation of olefins, starting from biomass with the intermediary steps of gasfication, water-gas shift reaction and syngas-to-olefins synthesis was investigated, through mathematical modelling and simulation on Matlab. The model for the gasifier was based on minimisation of Gibbs free energy and its results showed that higher carbon efficiencies could be achieved at lower pressures and steam inlet, and more inlet energy, by pre-heating the gasifying agents.
