1. 1. Refining the particulate matter airway deposition arising from indoor cooking-related biomass combustion for children in the Haramaya district in Ethiopia

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

   Author : Kasper Malmborn; [2023]
   Keywords : Air pollution exposure; charcoal; wood; animal dung; low-income setting epidemiology; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Background: Air pollution, a global issue affecting millions of individuals, is linked to adverse health effects on the respiratory system, but also to e.g., cancer and cardiovascular ailments. In low-income countries, cooking is often conducted by biomass-combustion, causing women and children to be exposed to high levels of indoor air pollution. READ MORE

3. 2. Production of natural pigments from A. platensis grown on wastewater from local treatment facility.

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

   Author : Hana Faulds; [2023]
   Keywords : Cyanobacteria; pigments; microalgae; wastewater treatment; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : Although microalgae have been considered for the biological treatment of wastewater since the 1950’s, their potential to efficiently remove pollutants from various streams remains largely untapped and is yet to be utilized at large scale. The production of algal biomass and extraction of high-value compounds has, however, become increasingly popular with large scale farms and biorefineries around the world producing many promising alternatives to petroleum-based products and processes.

4. 3. Carbon Capture for Biomass Combustion

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Anders Amundsson; [2023]
   Keywords : beccs; ccs; carbon capture; AMP DMSO; amine absorption; heat integration; chemical engineering; environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : In order to limit global warming, bioenergy carbon capture and storage (BECCS) technologies are getting increased attention. To meet emission scenarios, an estimated 4000 carbon capture plants are expected to be required by 2030, indicating that progress in carbon capture and storage (CCS) deployment is currently lagging behind expectation.

5. 4. Impact of Implementing CCS Technology on a Biomass Power Plant

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Azin Mohebbi; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This study examines the implementation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology, specifically the monoethanolamine (MEA) chemical absorption method, in a biomass power plant. The aim is to assess the energy requirements and optimize the solvent processes to improve the overall efficiency of the carbon capture process. READ MORE

6. 5. Accelerating the Green Transition - Investigating the Feasibility of E-Fuel Production Connected to a CHP Plant

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Johanna Scholtz; Alice Maillard; [2023]
   Keywords : CCU; CHP plant; e-fuels; e-methane; e-methanol; e-kerosene; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The overall purpose of this thesis is to investigate the feasibility of producing electrofuels from CO2 and H2 in connection to a CHP plant equipped with carbon capture technology. This is done by investigating the production of e-methane, e-methanol and e-kerosene from captured CO2 and H2 produced from electrolysis. READ MORE
