1. 1. Energy retrofitting effect on perceived indoor climate: A case study of Estonian multi-family buildings

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

   Author : Kadri Reinumägi; [2023]
   Keywords : Indoor environment; Thermal comfort; Indoor Air Quality; Window airing habits; Energy renovation; Occupant survey; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Energy renovations are an important measure for achieving the European Union’s target of climate neutrality by 2050. To meet the EU goal, Estonia needs to fully renovate 14 000 multi-family buildings by that time, affecting the indoor environment conditions of a large number of people. READ MORE

3. 2. Effects of Energy Performance Improving Measures on a 1990's Brick House in Southern Czech Republic : Computer Simulations using IDA-ICE

   University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

   Author : Vaclav Panek; [2023]
   Keywords : Final energy demand; Primary energy demand; Energy performance; Refurbishment; Single-family house; Space heating;

   Abstract : The residential sector was responsible for 25% of the Final Energy Demand (FED) in the European Union in 2015. Countries in Central and Eastern Europe such as the Czech Republic are particularly concerned with ensuring security of supply at the lowest possible cost in recent years. READ MORE

6. 5. Carbon capture in biomass combustion plants using promoted potassium carbonate solutions : A cost and safety evaluation

   University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för kemiteknik

   Author : Håkan Bergman; [2022]
   Keywords : BECCS; carbon dioxide; potassium carbonate; bioenergy carbon capture and storage; promoter; BECSS; Koldioxidinfångning;

   Abstract : Biomass combustion can be seen as CO2 neutral, thereby biomass combustion plants can have negative CO2 emissions if retrofitted with post combustion capture (PCC) technology using liquid absorbents. Monoethanolamine (MEA) has been used for carbon capture in coal combustion plants but are not suitable for use in biomass combustion plants due to corrosion and high solvent regeneration cost.
