  1. 1. The implications of heavy fuel oil ban in arctic waters for sustainable arctic shipping

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för marina vetenskaper

    Author : Kaung Thu; [2023-01-23]
    Keywords : Arctic region; heavy fuel oil; shipping; Sustainable;

    Abstract : The increased temperature in the polar regions is one of the significant impacts of global warming and consequential climate change. In the Arctic, regional warming leads to the accelerated loss of sea ice caps, which has opened up new international shipping routes. READ MORE

  3. 2. The Impact of Policy on the Production of Liquid Biofuels

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Author : Alexandra Danielsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Business and Economics;

    Abstract : In the following thesis, the development of the biofuels sector in the United States will be analysed using environmental economics. Around year 2005, there was a significant increase in the production of liquid biofuels. Hence, the thesis aims to explore the reasons behind the increase. READ MORE

  4. 3. Modelling the chemical recycling of plastic waste via pyrolysis and analysing integration with existing refinery infrastructure

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Simon Dahl; [2023]
    Keywords : Pyrolysis; Recycling; Integration; Modelling; Simulation; Techno-economic; Plastic; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Current plastic management is unsustainable as large amounts of plastic end up landfilled or in the ocean, necessitating an expansion of waste management infrastructure. Pyrolysis is a viable chemical recycling option, and in this report a pyrolysis model is constructed in Aspen Plus. READ MORE

  5. 4. The mechanism behind internal injector deposits

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Jenny Blomberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Biodiesel; deposit formation; engine oil; calcium sulphate; internal diesel injector deposits; Biodiesel; beläggningsbildning; motorolja; kalciumsulfat; interna dieselinjektorbeläggningar;

    Abstract : Användningen av biobränslen har ökat för att minska utsläppen från fossila bränslen. Biobränslen kan dock leda till beläggningar inuti injektorn, vilka påverkar fordonets  körbarhet. READ MORE

  6. 5. Assessment of the energetic feasibility of a novel CHP biorefinery concept

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Ângelo Miguel Mendes Ferreira; [2023]
    Keywords : biorefinery; bioenergy; biomimicry; combined heat and power; Earth Power Lodge; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study investigates the potential for energetic self-reliance in an integrated biore- finery, the Earth Power Lodge (EPL), which aims to convert waste into valuable by- products through bio- and thermochemical conversion processes. The primary questions addressed include assessing the necessity of external propane to sustain the pyrolysis process and the net energy output of the ThermoChemical Reactor (TCR) process when fractional distillation is applied to the resulting bio-oils.
