  4. 29. Possibility for Positive Energy Retrofit in Borlänge

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

    Author : Daniel Nay Myo Tun; Abideen Olaide Bakare; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The built environment accounts for 40% of annual carbon dioxide (C02) emissions. Among the total emissions, building operations generate approximately 27% annually. Other than this, building materials, infrastructural materials, and construction (embodied carbon) contribute to an additional 13% annually [1]. READ MORE

  5. 30. Reprocessing and Characterization of Polybenzimidazole for High-Temperature Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Douglas Björkengren; [2023]
    Keywords : polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells; PEMFC; HTPEMFC; polymer technology; polymer characterization; reprocessing; recycling; polybenzimidazole; PBI; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A reprocessing method of poly(2,2’-(m-phenylene)-5,5’-bibenzimidazole) (PBI) membranes recovered from the production line of High-Temperature Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (HT-PEMFC) at Blue World Technologies (BWT) has been developed in order to reduce material loss in the production. Redissolution of scrap PBI membranes in poly(phosphoric acid) (PPA) and phosphoric acid (PA) was successful and the subsequent washing procedure produced PBI that could be redissolved in N,N-dimethyl acetamide (DMAc) and suitable for solution casting of new membranes.
