  1. 1. Assessment of the energetic feasibility of a novel CHP biorefinery concept

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Ângelo Miguel Mendes Ferreira; [2023]
    Keywords : biorefinery; bioenergy; biomimicry; combined heat and power; Earth Power Lodge; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study investigates the potential for energetic self-reliance in an integrated biore- finery, the Earth Power Lodge (EPL), which aims to convert waste into valuable by- products through bio- and thermochemical conversion processes. The primary questions addressed include assessing the necessity of external propane to sustain the pyrolysis process and the net energy output of the ThermoChemical Reactor (TCR) process when fractional distillation is applied to the resulting bio-oils.

  3. 2. Energy demand and biogas production in rural areas : A case study in the Raqayapampa community in Bolivia

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

    Author : Halvor Solheim Haugen; Noel Arancibia Holm; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Improved access to energy can greatly improve living standards, and there are correlations between increased access to electricity and higher scores on both the Human Development Index (HDI) and the Educational Development Index (EDI). Increasing access to energy can also help decrease dependability on hazardous fuels and energy sources, such as firewood for cooking. READ MORE
