  1. 1. Predictive Control for Mitigating Solar Power Variations in Isolated Steam Power Systems

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Rasmus Björk; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The need to reduce the amount of fossil fuel consumed by industry is vital. However, it is crucial to understand that industry is less inclined to shift its consumption from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources solely based on environmentalconcerns; to realistically make industry switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, renewable energy sources must provide efficient results for industry.

  5. 4. Heat Treatment Energy Mapping

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Chidera Henry Mbanyeude; [2023]
    Keywords : Heat Treatment; Through Hardening; Case Carburizing; Surface induction hardening; specific energy consumption; CO2e; Energy Mapping; Carbon intensity;

    Abstract : As the world becomes more focused on sustainability, there is increasing pressure on steel-bearing companies to improve their energy efficiency and reduce their carbon footprint. The heat treatment process accounts for about 25% of SKF's energy consumption, and it aims to achieve decarbonized operations by 2030 and the supply chain by 2050. READ MORE

  6. 5. Techno-economic evaluation of hydrochar via hydrothermal carbonisation of organicresidues

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

    Author : Abdirahman Abdullahi; [2022]
    Keywords : Technoeconomic analysis; energy system modelling; HTC; hyrochar; system integration; OSMET;

    Abstract : This thesis has investigated the techno-economic feasibility of upgrading the sludge from a chemical pulp mill to hydrochar via hydrothermal carbonization (HTC). The intended use of the hydrochar was to replace fossil coal within metallurgical applications in the iron and steel industry. READ MORE
