  1. 1. Application of Fourier Transforms to time-resolved ambient pressure spectroscopy operando studies of CO oxidation over Pt(111)

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

    Author : Grigore-Leon Ratiu; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis has important implications in increasing the efficiency of industrial processes and in reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases from sources such as automobiles. A reaction with high industrial relevance is the oxidation of CO on noble metal catalysts. READ MORE

  3. 2. Paving the Way to Sustainability: Assessing the Impacts of Carbon Border Tariffs on the Steel Industry

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Claudia Spanier; Kimya Rahmanian Aberouie; [2023]
    Keywords : Carbon border tariffs; CO2 emissions; trade; steel; environmental policy; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : This paper seeks to provide insights into the effects of carbon border tariffs and to offer guidance for policymakers. The focus is directed towards the steel sector - a major contributor to carbon dioxide emissions, where production practices vary significantly among countries, leading to differences in pollution levels.

  4. 3. A European Material Kuznets Curve

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Pyry Järvinen; Emil Fernström; [2023]
    Keywords : Material Kuznets Curve; Environmental Kuznets Curve; Economic Growth; Economics Development; Material Footprint; Emissions; Sustainable Growth; Decoupling; Europe;

    Abstract : This bachelor thesis investigates the correlation between 28 European countries’material footprints (MF), as proxied by their Raw Material Consumption (RMC)per capita, and the environmental impact indicated by their carbon dioxide (CO2)emissions per capita, respectively, with their economic development, measured bytheir purchase power parity adjusted gross domestic product (GDP) per capita,during the period of 2008 to 2019. Specifically, through the theoretical frameworkof the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) and by utilizing Fixed EffectsOrdinary Least Squares regression models as well as Pooled Mean Groupestimation, the thesis asks whether or not evidence can be found for the possibleexistence of an EKC, an inverted-U shaped relationship between environmentaldegradation and economic development, within this European context.

  5. 4. Biomassatillväxt och koldioxidinlagring med mineralnäring och bionäring i norra Sverige

    University essay from SLU/School for Forest Management

    Author : David Berglund; [2023]
    Keywords : organiskt gödsel; kolbildning; norrbotten;

    Abstract : Denna studie är en uppföljning på ett mastersarbete som är del av ett större projekt som heter ”Kolsänkor Norrbotten”. Projektet handlar om att jämföra bionäring (avloppsslam) och mineralnäring på 22 skogsbestånd utspridda i Norrbotten. Dessa bestånd gödslades mellan 2006 och 2008. READ MORE

  6. 5. Carbon Capture from Biomass Boiler Flue Gas Emissions using Microalgae : A Case Study

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

    Author : Graham Kirn; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Capture and storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) is expected to play an important role in climate change mitigation efforts intended to limit global warming to 1.5 °C. Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), in which carbon is captured during energy generation from sustainably sourced biomass fuels, is of particular interest in Sweden. READ MORE
