1. 1. Greenhouse gas emissions and energy efficiency of various renewable energy pathways in the truck industry : An LCA and energy efficiency analysis on fuel production for and manufacturing of 40 tonne heavy trucks in Sweden

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för tema; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

   Author : Jacob Axell; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydrogen; Sweden; 40-tonne haulage truck; LCA; Wind energy; Bio fuel; Energy efficiency; CO2 emissions;

   Abstract : This study focuses on assessing the greenhouse gas emissions and energy efficiency of 40-tonne haulage trucks in fuel production and manufacturing in a Swedish context. The aim was to provide accurate greenhouse gas accounting and evaluate the contribution to mitigating climate change. READ MORE

3. 2. Linking the selectivity of varying surface phases of a real palladium catalyst toward specific methane oxidation pathways with Ambient Pressure X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Ulrike Küst; [2023]
   Keywords : APXPS; catalysis; palladium; methane; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis, especially within methane oxidation, is of high importance in order to more efficiently remove unburned methane from bio-fuel exhausts. This is relevant as bio-fuel engines will replace those driven by fossil fuels in the coming decades. READ MORE

4. 3. Genetically modified tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants for an increased production of wax esters

   University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

   Author : Linn Nilsson; [2022]
   Keywords : Wax esters; metabolic engineering; nicotiana tabacum; fatty acid reductase; phytyl ester synthase;

   Abstract : Wax esters (WE) are naturally occurring lipids consisting of a fatty acid bound to a fatty alcohol with an ester bond. As an alternative to petrochemicals, plant-derived WE:s are of considerable commercial interest as lubricants, but have in recent years also received great attention for their potential as a starting material for bio-fuel production.

5. 4. Investigation of Internal Diesel Injector Deposits on fuel injector performance for proposal of injector test rig test method.

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

   Author : David Bergstrand; [2020]
   Keywords : Internal Diesel Injector Deposits; IDID; Injector; Fuel system; Injector performance;

   Abstract : With increasing demands for lowering emissions from diesel engines, bio fuel has been introduced to the fuel mixture. This fuel is based on vegetable oil with a much smaller carbon footprint than fossil fuel. READ MORE

6. 5. Mechanism of Formation of Soft Particles in Biodiesel Fuel Blends

   University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

   Author : Roberta Maria Fiorenza; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The large environmental impact related to the use of fossil fuel has driven the shift toward renewable sourced alternatives. Fossil diesel can be nowadays replaced by biodiesel, obtained from vegetable oils and fats, mostly used as biodiesel blends. READ MORE
