  1. 1. Investigating self-discharge in a graphite dual-ion cell using in-situ Raman spectroscopy.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturkemi

    Author : Ismail Yussuf Hassan; [2023]
    Keywords : graphite; dual-ion battery; parasitic reaction; cathode-electrolyte interface; anion intercalation; concentrated electrolyte; self-discharge; Raman spectroscopy;

    Abstract : Anion intercalation in the graphite positive electrode of a dual-ion battery requires high potential (> 4.3 V vs Li+/Li), which aggravates parasitic reactions involving electrolyte decomposition and Al corrosion, manifesting in poor coulombic efficiency, cycle life, and quick self-discharge.

  3. 2. Electrolytic Reduction of Iron Oxides in Molten Salt with a Mineralogical Investigation of Magnetite Ore of Tapuli

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Elina Fernö; [2023]
    Keywords : Iron reduction; trace element analysis on magnetite ore; molten salt electrolysis; sodium hydroxide electrolyte; NaOH; greenhouse gas; carbon dioxide; CO2; green ironmaking; Järnreduktion; spårelementanalys på magnetitmalm; smältelektrolys; elektrolys i natriumhydroxid; NaOH; elektrolyt; växthusgas; koldioxid; CO2; grön järnframställning;

    Abstract : This master's thesis covers an investigation of the reduction behavior of different iron oxides when electrolytically reduced with molten salt electrolysis (MSE). The tested iron oxides were wüstite (FeO), hematite (Fe2O3), magnetite (Fe3O4) and magnetite ore concentrate from the Tapuli deposit in Pajala, Norrbotten, Sweden. READ MORE

  4. 3. Graphene Based Aqueous Ammonium Dual-Ion Batteries

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturkemi

    Author : Arvid Sandberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Dual ion batteries; materials science; chemistry; organic polymer;

    Abstract : The global transition to renewable energy sources is placing high demands on the development of effective energy storage methods, the most prevalent being batteries. Dual-ion batteries are a new battery technology that takes advantage of the simultaneous intercalation of both cations and anions. READ MORE

  5. 4. Life cycle assessment on sodium-ion cells for energy storage systems : A cradle-to-gate study including 16 environmental perspectives, focusing on climate change impact

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

    Author : Rebecca Nibelius; [2023]
    Keywords : Sodium-ion batteries; Life cycle assessment; Cradle-to-gate; Natriumbatterier; Livscykelanalys; Vagga-till-port;

    Abstract : Because of the changing energy supply landscape, with the transition towards renewable energy, an emerging demand for energy storage systems (ESS) is expected in the near future. Battery energy storage is promising to contribute to mitigate the greenhouse gas emissions, but face issues considering resource use (IEA, 2023; IRENA, 2022). READ MORE

  6. 5. Structural and Functional Characterisation of the Human Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simon Gripvall; [2023]
    Keywords : biochemistry; complex; MPC; proteoliposomes; pyruvate; transport; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The metabolism of pyruvate in the cell is abnormally regulated in several human diseases, such as type-II diabetes, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, in which the human mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (HuMPC) sits at a pivotal point. It transports pyruvate across the inner mitochondrial membrane and consists of two proteins, MPC1 and MPC2, and is a potential drug target against these diseases. READ MORE
