  1. 1. A geological investigation on bedrock suitability for mineral carbonation conducted in the south central part of Sweden

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

    Author : Edvard Pearson; [2023]
    Keywords : Mineral carbonation; geological investigation; Åsensbruk; Falun; Grums; Öje; Skutskär;

    Abstract : Increasing global temperatures due to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases is one of our times most dire and urgent challenges to overcome if we are to achieve a sustainable healthy planet. The primary way of accomplishing this is by reducing the amount of released greenhouse gases. READ MORE

    Abstract : The Paris Agreement aims to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, and Sweden has set a goal toreach net-zero emissions by 2045. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is one method that can reducecarbon dioxide emissions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Spent Nuclear Fuel under Repository Conditions : Update and Expansion of Database and Development of Machine Learning Models

    University essay from KTH/Kemi

    Author : Maria Abada; [2022]
    Keywords : Spent nuclear fuel; spent nuclear fuel dissolution; spent nuclear fuel corrosion; machine learning model; dissolution predictions; Utbränt kärnbränsle; upplösning av utbränt kärnbränsle; korrosion av utbränt kärnbränsle; maskininlärningsmodeller; prediktioner av upplösning;

    Abstract : Förbrukat kärnbränsle är mycket radioaktivt och behöver därför lagras i djupa geologiska förvar i tusentals år innan det säkert kan återföras till naturen. På grund av de långa lagringsperioderna görs säkerhetsanalyser av de djupa geologiska förvaren. READ MORE

  5. 4. Geological characterization of rock samples by LIBS and ME-XRT analytical techniques

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geovetenskap och miljöteknik

    Abstract : One of the major challenges in earth sciences and mineral exploration has been to determine with high accuracy and at a fast rate the elemental composition as well as the general chemistry of a rock sample. Many analytical techniques e.g. READ MORE

  6. 5. Modelling of Fluid Flow and Contaminant Transport in Fractured Rock : Case Study

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Ebba Pegestam; [2022]
    Keywords : Contaminant transport; Discrete Fracture Network; Geology; Geohydrology; Groundwater transport; Fracture; Drinking water; Contamination; Föroreningar; flödestransport; spricknätverk; geologi; geohydrologi; grundvattentransport; sprickor; dricksvatten;

    Abstract : Drinking water contamination is a big concern in Sweden and is commonly traced back to being waste from former manufacturing industrial sites. Pollutants in the topsoil can be remediated by several techniques, such as decontamination or excavation but the toxins already enclosed in the bedrock cannot be treated the same and is harder to track possible contaminant pathways.
