  1. 11. Heat recovery from vacuum brazing furnaces

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Installations- och klimatiseringslära

    Author : Oliver Robertsson; Rasmus Wikman; [2023]
    Keywords : Waste heat; Vacuum furnace; Heat recovery; HVAC; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : By partly replacing the use of primary energy sources with waste heat recovery, climate and environmental goals for the future will be closer at hand. This thesis investigates the waste heat potential of Alfa Laval's vacuum brazing furnaces in Ronneby and alternative ways of integrating the furnace's waste heat into the building's HVAC system.

  3. 12. Solar PV Integrated with Seasonal Thermal Storage and District Heating

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Lovisa Thalén; Hannah Ekström; [2023]
    Keywords : Solar PV; power-to-heat; heat pump; electric boiler; thermal seasonal storage; district heating; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In order to contribute to reaching the climate goals of the future, power-to-heat (P2H) technologies are a possible solution. A heat pump (HP) or an electric boiler (EB) can be used to produce warm water by utilising cheap electricity from photovoltaic (PV) parks in the summer when there are many hours of sunlight.

  4. 13. Investigation of new refrigerants for a large-scale heat pump and evaluation of system performance

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Hanna Grahn; Matilda Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Large-scale heat pump; refrigerant; COP;

    Abstract : Heat production accounted in 2021 for 50 % of the energy end use globally, where a strongconnection to fossil sources still exists. Large-scale electrical heat pumps can therefore have akey role in the energy system to enable a decreased reliance on fossil fuels and at the same timecontribute to stable system when incorporating more intermittent renewable sources.

  5. 14. The Factory of the Future: An analysis on buildings, HVAC, and heat recovery systems in order to reduce energy consumption

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Christina Naumburg; [2022]
    Keywords : HVAC; energy; consumption; electricity; industry; heat recovery; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The industrial sector in Sweden accounted for 38 percent of the country’s total energy consumption in 2019. As the world’s focus has shifted drastically on energy consumption, the industry sector’s has as well due to energy initiatives and government-driven regulations. READ MORE

  6. 15. Bitcoin Mining in Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

    Author : Sixten Hager; [2022]
    Keywords : ASIC; Bitcoin; Bitcoin mining; proof-of-work; blockchain; district heating; heat recovery; climate change; Sweden; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Bitcoin mining is an industry which for many years has been criticized for its electricity consumption, which globally today equals roughly that of small countries such as Sweden, and its subsequent contribution to climate change. However, electricity consumption does not by default equals greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and not many studies have been done on the subject with a focus on Sweden, hence this study aims to provide some clarity to the otherwise opaque space of Bitcoin mining.
