  1. 1. Carbon Accounting and SeaweedOffsets : An overview of some current carbon accounting methodologiesand the emerging sector of seaweed carbon offsets

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Alice Rudberg; [2023]
    Keywords : carbon accounting; carbon offsets; carbon credits; blue carbon; seaweed offsets; climate mitigation; sustainability; klimatkompensering; klimatberäking; begränsning av klimatförändringar; alger; tång; hållbarhet;

    Abstract : As the anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) have increased and received moreattention, the need for climate mitigation solutions has become more urgent. Today, several methodologies for carbon accounting exists, as well as the possibility to offset emissions by buying carbon offsets. READ MORE

  3. 2. Linear optimization of a potential microgrid to supply TSK70

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Roy Satis; [2023]
    Keywords : modelling; solar power; energy storage; electric vehicle; construction site; modelering; solkraft; energilagring; elektrifierad fordon; konstruktionsplats;

    Abstract : Transport- och byggindustrin är en bidragande orsak till klimatkläget på grund av den betydande mängd växthusgaser som produceras. Att byta till elfordon är en metod för att minska de skadliga effekterna av klimatförändringarna. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessment of the integration of solar heat power into food drying processes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Charalampos Psilopoulos; [2023]
    Keywords : Sustainable; sustainability; co2 reduction; feasibility; solar thermal; direct steam generation; drying; food industry; scope 1 emissions; sdg; sustainable development goals; spray drying; drum drying; powder; food; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The long-lasting usage of fossil fuels has brought its negative impact on the planet and thus the society is turning towards more environmentally sustainable solutions in every aspect of life. This master’s thesis discusses the novel topic of integrating concentrated solar thermal collectors, which directly produce steam, to drying processes in the food industry, which is proven to currently emit significant amounts of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs).

  5. 4. Modelling the full-scale N2O emissions from wastewater treatment plants for identifying mitigation strategies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Naga Deepika Peddamudium; [2023]
    Keywords : Modelling; simulation; ASM2dISS; N2O production pathways; N2O emission factor; mitigation strategies; water and environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, which primarily originate from the biological nitrogen removal process, dominate the release of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). N2O production occurs through dynamic microbial pathways that have a significant impact on the environment compared with other GHG emissions. READ MORE

  6. 5. Carbon Flows in Sweden : A Substance Flow Analysis of anthropogenic carbon flows

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Sofia Gunnarsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Carbon; Carbon Flow; Carbon Stock; Substance Flow Analysis; Sweden; Industrial Ecology; Anthropogenic;

    Abstract : Carbon (C) is an essential element for all life. However, modern livestock keeping and usage of carbon through burning of fossil fuels are resulting in increased concentrations of carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere, two important greenhouse gases (GHG). READ MORE
