  1. 1. Prediction of flue gas properties using artificial intelligence : Application of supervised machine learning by utilization of Near-Infrared Spectroscopy on solid biofuels

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Bashe Abdirahman Hussein; Emran Samimi; [2022]
    Keywords : Artificial Intelligence; Machine learning; Near-Infrared spectroscopy; Solid biofuels; Fuel element; Flue gas composition; CCS;

    Abstract : This degree project studies implementation and comparison of different AI models to predict (1) solid biofuel elements including carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen as well as moisture content, ash content, and higher heating value (HHV) of the fuel and (2) flue gas compositions such as concentration of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen, nitrogen oxides, and water content using near-infrared spectroscopy and chemometric approaches. The study executes these predictions by simulating the operation of a combined heat and power plant (CHP) that is equipped with carbon capture and storage (CCS). READ MORE

    Keywords : Wheat bran; biorefinery; chemical engineering; vetekli; bioraffinaderi; extraction; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Wheat bran is a by-product from the production of wheat flour. Nowadays wheat bran is mostly used as feed for animals, in the food and baking industry or it is simply burned in open air. READ MORE

  4. 3. Will substituting fossil fuels with biofuels lead to a net reduction in CO2 emissions? : The case of district heating in Norrköping municipality

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Stina Ljungberg; [2018]
    Keywords : Forest residue; slash; bio-based economy; sustainable energy; Grot; biobaserad ekonomi; hållbar energi;

    Abstract : With global warming and the international, national and local goals of reducing greenhouse gas net emissions, the phasing out of fossil fuels are of great importance. One energy source resulting in nearly no net emissions are biofuels. READ MORE

  5. 4. Liquefaction of Softwood Bark towards Biochemicals and Biofuels

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser
