  1. 1. Exhaust system for hydrogen fuelled combustion engines: effect of high-water content on the SCR vanadium catalyst

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

    Author : Cecilia Zambelli; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Transportation represents a key secot in the journey towards a greener future, and alternative solutions are needed to meet the decarbonaisation need. Hydrogen internal combustion engines could represent a solution in the short-term, allowing for emission reduction with limited modification to the already existing traditional combustion engines.

  2. 2. Development of an Accelerated Test Method for Compressed Natural Gas Fuel System Robustness against Contamination

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Elias Aretorn; [2023]
    Keywords : CNG; Natural Gas; Heavy-Duty Vehicles; Fuel System; Contamination; Cleanliness; Accelerated Testing; Experimental Setup; Pressure Regulator;

    Abstract : A key factor for driving the shift towards sustainable transportation systems is alternative fuels, where compressed natural gas (CNG) is a beneficial alternative to the conventional fossil fuels with respect to greenhouse gas emissions. A fuel system is needed for heavy-duty natural gas vehicles, in order to transport the highly pressurized gas from the fuel tanks to the internal combustion engine. READ MORE

  3. 3. Techno-economic analysis and design of the charging infrastructure for Electric Heavy Vehicles in Oskarshamn

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

    Author : Joan Cassany Espinosa; [2023]
    Keywords : Electrification; decarbonization; freight transport; heavy duty vehicle; battery electric truck; charging infrastructure; business model assessment; Elektrifiering; avkolning; godstransport; tunga fordon; batterielektrisk lastbil; laddinfrastruktur; affärsmodellsbedömning;

    Abstract : Within the most pollutants industries, the energy sector is the most significant contributor to climate change, representing two-thirds of the total Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. One of the main responsible for these emissions is transportation, which accounts for 26% of the world’s energy consumption, with crude oil-derived products providing more than 90% of this energy.

  4. 4. Electric Road Systems: A case study on the bridge of Öresund

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Jakob Svensson; [2022]
    Keywords : Electric road systems; Transportation; Electric Vehicle; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Combustion of fossil fuels is single-handedly the largest contributor of global warming. The transportation sector is responsible for about a third of the greenhouse gas emissions yearly in Sweden. In turn, road traffic makes up the largest share within the transportation. READ MORE

  5. 5. Electrification of Last-Mile Transport : A Study of Charging Infrastructure and Collaborative Business Model

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Elin Johansson; Marcus Rostmark; [2022]
    Keywords : Electrification; electric vehicles; last-mile; charging infrastructure; risk analysis; collaborative business models; Elektrifiering; elfordon; sista milen; laddinfrastruktur; riskanalys; kollaborativ affärsmodell;

    Abstract : Electrification of the transport sector is an important step in reducing the global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Compared to traditional internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs), electric vehicles (EVs) produce no tail-pipe emissions and could be coupled with responsible energy production from renewable energy sources to reduce coupled emissions of their operation.
