1. 1. Life Cycle Perspective on School Buildings’ Energy Retrofitting

   University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Author : Maryam Kafashtehrani; [2022]
   Keywords : School; building; LCA; IDA-ICE; energy retrofitting; insulation; ventilation; photovoltaic; PV; GHG;

   Abstract : The building sector contributes substantial energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Energy efficiency is the main driver for the mitigation of climate change. Schools are placed with high energy consumption and GHG emitting. READ MORE

3. 2. A comparison between embodied and operational carbon in a building envelope from a life cycle perspective

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

   Author : Linnea Persson; [2022]
   Keywords : Operational carbon; embodied carbon; building envelope; Driftskedets klimatpåverkan; inbyggd klimatpåverkan; klimatskal;

   Abstract : Sweden’s building sector contributes over one third of the country’s total energy consumption and over a fifth of its greenhouse gas emissions. To achieve the energy and climate goals that have been adopted by the Parliament in Sweden, work must be done within this sector to reduce its climate impact. READ MORE

4. 3. Optimization of a one-part geopolymerization method for lab-scale, using waste glass wool as a precursor

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

   Author : Oscar Enander; [2022]
   Keywords : Materials chemistry; Geopolymer; Glass wool; Recycling; Curing time; Curing temperature; Cement; Chemistry;

   Abstract : Geopolymers are amorphous inorganic polymeric structures. They are used as binding agents and can be compared to cementitious materials such as ordinary Portland cement. This thesis aims to produce geopolymers from waste glass wool. Today glass wool is found in isolation, both thermal and sound insulation, and it is not being recycled. READ MORE

5. 4. The Impact of Insulation Materials on a Climate Declaration : A Study of a Swedish Preschool

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

   Author : Isabelle Hallkvist; Elin Nilsson; [2021]
   Keywords : Climate declaration; Insulation materials; Insulation material; Climate impact; Greenhouse gas emissions; Building and construction sector; Boverket; Glass wool; Stone wool; EPS; XPS; Cellulose fibre; Foam glass; Klimatdeklaration; Isoleringsmaterial; Klimatpåverkan; Växthusgasutsläpp; Bygg- och fastighetssektorn; Boverket; Glasull; Stenull; EPS; XPS; Cellulosafiber; Skumglas;

   Abstract : To reach the net-zero carbon goal by 2045, the Swedish government want to push the building and construction sector to lower their greenhouse gas emissions. This push is performed by implementing a law requiring building developers to perform a climate declaration over greenhouse gas emissions, to receive a building’s final clearance. READ MORE

6. 5. Modelling of the vibrational behavior of housing plates filled with fibrous material

   University essay from KTH/Marcus Wallenberg Laboratoriet MWL

   Author : Da Cao; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Silencers are used in vehicles to reduce the noise in the engine system. However,silencers themselves may produce break-out noise due to the interactionwith the exhaust gas ow and structure. In this Master thesis project, thenumerical simulation of vibrational behavior of housing plates of silencers isdeveloped. READ MORE
