  1. 1. Opposing Attitudes Towards Environmental Taxes: A Price Dilemma? A Case of the Swedish Attitudes on Gasoline Emission Taxes

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

    Author : Ignacio López Casanueva Arturo; Bergström Martin; [2023-06-29]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates how people’s attitudes toward environmental taxes are shaped and whether changes in end-consumer prices of gasoline have a direct effect on carbon tax perception. A theoretical model is constructed to represent the individual’s choice problem using a utility function. READ MORE

  3. 2. 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

  4. 3. Gasoline prices effect on public transportation: A study of Chicago : A study of the cross-price elasticity between gasoline prices and public transportation in a metropolitan setting.

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för nationalekonomi och statistik (NS)

    Author : Melker Bergman; [2023]
    Keywords : Cross-price elasticity; ARDL; gasoline prices; public transportation;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the cross-price elasticity of rail and bus usage with gasoline prices. This is done to see how the short-run cross price elasticity has changed and to see if the same long-run relationship can be seen in the long run as previous pooled models. READ MORE

  5. 4. Reducing cost and CO2 emissions in the gasoline to electric vehicle fleet transition

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Emil Grund Stålvinge; [2023]
    Keywords : electric car; electric conversion; bldc; li-ion; lion; lipo; li-po; volvo; elbil; elbilar; elkonvertering; bldc; li-ion; lion; lipo; li-po; volvo;

    Abstract : If you buy a new electric car today it will take on average about ten years for you to start saving money compared to just continue driving your old gasoline car. It will also take about 4 years until you start saving carbon dioxide emissions, both of this is because of new production costs and emissions. READ MORE

  6. 5. Numerical modeling of airflow on the cathode-side of a bipolar flow plate : How the formed geometry affects the pressure drop and flow distribution in a hydrogen fuel cell

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Olivia Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Performance; Cross-sectional geometry; Computational fluid dynamics;

    Abstract : Climate change and rising temperatures is a well-known problem. To tackle global warming a transition from fossil fuels to renewable and reliable energy sources is necessary. Hydrogen, in fuel cells, is proposed to replace diesel and gasoline in the transport sector. READ MORE
