  1. 1. Freight Transport in the Car-Free City : Towards a more sustainable urban freight sector

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Melisa Marta; [2023]
    Keywords : Car-free city; sustainable urban freight transport; urban consolidation center; cargo bicycles;

    Abstract : Freight transport of goods is an indispensable part of everyday life. Without it there would be no delivery of products such as food, water, construction material, technology, furniture, clothes and society, as we know it today, would collapse.  However, there are more and less sustainable ways of transporting goods.

  3. 2. Major Component Replacement on Floating Wind Turbines

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

    Author : Kilian Galle; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Among the challenges that floating offshore wind (FOW) energy faces today, operation and maintenanc ecosts, and especially major component replacements (MCR), are an important cost reduction lever. MCRs are defined as any failure on a wind turbine requiring the change of an entire main component of the turbine, such as a gearbox, generator, blade, nacelle, etc. READ MORE

  4. 3. Treatment of Metals in Highway Runoff Water : Comparison of green infrastructures and filter material for stormwater treatment

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Fanny von Matérn; [2023]
    Keywords : Road runoff; heavy metals; constructed wetland; stormwater pond; vegetated filterstrip; vegetated swale; sandfilter; reactive filter material; Vägdagvatten; tungmetaller; anlagd våtmark; dagvattendam; översilningsyta; svackdike; sandfilter; reaktiva filtermaterial;

    Abstract : Highway runoff transport high concentrations of heavy metals. As climate change affect the environment with for example increased storm events, the treatment of road runoff becomes more important. READ MORE

  5. 4. Investigation of charge injection at electrode-dielectric interface relevant for HVDC cables : Simulation of charge injection and transport dynamics in electrical insulation for HVDC cables

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad mekanik

    Author : Mohammed Mosa; [2023]
    Keywords : BCT model; charge injection; space charge density; electric field distribution; Fowler-Nordheim; Richardson-Schottky;

    Abstract : A bipolar charge transport (BCT) model is used to simulate charge injection and transportdynamics inside insulation material which are used in a high voltage direct current (HVDC)cable. Gaining knowledge about space charge density and electric field distribution in theinsulation material enables minimising charge injection at the metal-insulator interface andavoiding unnecessary energy loss.

  6. 5. Modeling of an Electrolysis System for Techno-Economic Optimization of Hydrogen Production

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

    Author : Jürgen Köstlbacher; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrogen; Hydrogen Production; Green Hydrogen; LCOH; Electrolysis; PEM; AEL; MILP; Optimization; Techno-Economic Analysis; Cost Optimization; PPA; vätgas; vätgasproduktion; grön vätgas; LCOH; elektrolys; PEM; AEL; MILP; optimering; tekniskekonomisk analys; kostnadsoptimering; PPA;

    Abstract : In face of climate change, Europe and other global actors are in the process of transitioning to carbon-neutral economies, aiming to phase out of fossil fuels and power industries with renewable energies. Hydrogen is going to play a crucial role in the transition, replacing fossil fuels in hard-to-decarbonize industries and acting as energy carrier and energy storage for renewable electricity.
