  1. 1. The Impact of Oil Prices on Carbon Dioxide Emission Levels in Sweden : a time-series regression analysis of Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Author : Tilde Löfgren Weinebrandt; [2023]
    Keywords : oil prices; CO2 emissions; oil price elasticity; Multiple Linear Regression Model; Sweden; correlation;

    Abstract : Globally, CO2 emissions have increased over the last decades. This trend has been broken in Sweden, where CO2 emissions are declining. Oil is one of Sweden's largest sources of energy, accounting for over 20 % of all energy consumption, and oil combustion is a large source of CO2 emissions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Enhancement of Phenol Formaldehyde Adhesive with Crystalline Nano Cellulose

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för skog och träteknik (SOT)

    Author : Johan Ekstrand; [2019]
    Keywords : Nano Cellulose; Fibrillated cellulose; Wood Adhesive; Shear strength; Adhesive Enhancement; Formaldehyde adhesive; Phenol Formaldehyde;

    Abstract : Abstract The wood industries to this day use almost exclusively petroleum derived adhesives that are based mainly on the reaction of formaldehyde with urea, melamine or phenol. These adhesives have low cost and good adjustable properties which makes it hard for bio-based alternatives to compete. READ MORE

  3. 3. Thermal and Mechanical Analysis of a Sustainable Alternative to Neoprene Wetsuits

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell Produktion

    Author : Eric Holmström; Jakob Mattsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Wetsuit; Sustainability; Insulation; Thermal Conductivity; Elasticity; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A novel material composition has been investigated in terms of thermal, mechanical, economical and sustainable aspects to be compared to neoprene wetsuits. It is believed that a sandwich structure produced by a dipping method with rubber layers containing an insulating textile can insulate better than foamed neoprene. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Russian Federation - the European economy’s future powerhouse? : An Econometric Analysis of the Energy Import Relationship Between Seven European Key Countries and the Russian Federation
