  1. 1. Biobased iron pellet production : Assessment of the availability and sustainability of biomass as fuel for iron ore pellet production in LKAB

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, design och hållbar utveckling (2023-)

    Author : Magnus Kemi; [2023]
    Keywords : bio-energy; biomass; coal; greenhouse gas emissions; industrial residues; LCA; LKAB; logging residues; iron ore; pellets; sinters; willow; sustainability;

    Abstract : Iron production accounts for substantial shares of global coal use and GHG emissions. LKAB is Europe’s largest iron company and Sweden’s fourth-largest emitter of GHGs. To reduce its emissions, LKAB might implement biomass in iron ore pelletisation. READ MORE

  3. 2. Residual Products in the Steel Industry Used for Briquetting

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Alexander Eriksson; Linn Isaksson; Jacob Lilliebjörn; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This report looks at the implementation of briquetting in the Swedish steel industry. Briquetting is a process in which residual products are mixed and compressed into a brick-like body in order to be added to the melt in a furnace. This report investigates the type of materials commonly used in briquetting as of today. READ MORE

  4. 3. The effects of sector free allowances & emissions on stock returns : A study on firms which partake in the EU emissions trading system

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för nationalekonomi och statistik (NS)

    Author : Mario Milic; Noah Stjernberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Stock returns; EU ETS; CO2 Emissions; Financial performance; Free allowances;

    Abstract : This study aims to investigate whether sectorial free allowances and sector emissions have any effect on a firm's stock return under the newly introduced EU ETS (Emission trading system). In doing so, the data have been structured as panel data and are gathered for a sample period of 10 years measuring from 2012-2021, looking at 6 sectors (Aviation, Combustion of fuels, refining of mineral oil, production of cardboard/ paper, production of pig iron and steel and production of bulk chemicals).
