  1. 16. Finding ways to develop a sustainable bioeconomy: The case of industrial cassava in Colombia : Environmental impact and food security insights from a combined life cycle assessment and interview study

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Isabel Nilsson Alarcón; [2023]
    Keywords : industrial cassava; food security; land use; climate change; biodiversity loss; sustainable bioeconomy; Life Cycle Assessment LCA ; Colombia; industriell kassava; tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning; markanvändning; klimatförändring; minskad biodiversitet; hållbar bioekonomi; livscykelanalys LCA ; Colombia;

    Abstract : Cassava has been identified as a potential key crop for a sustainable bioeconomy in Colombia.However, the bioeconomy is not inherently sustainable, and neither is producing cassava,which makes research on it crucial. Increasing biomass circularity could be key for increasingthe cassava industry’s sustainability performance. READ MORE

  3. 17. Trade-induced Environmental Impacts Connected to a Policy Promoting Agricultural Biofuels in Sweden; A sensitivity analysis on an Agent-based Life Cycle Assessment

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

    Author : Fanny Elfgren; [2023]
    Keywords : AB-LCA; Life Cycle Assessment; Energy crops; Trade; Import; Biofuel; Sensitivity Analysis; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The demand for biofuels is increasing as a result of increased climate mitigation ambitions aiming to replace the use of fossil fuels. To meet the increasing demand, energy crops grown on agricultural land used to produce biofuels is getting more and more attention. READ MORE

  4. 18. Life cycle assessment on sodium-ion cells for energy storage systems : A cradle-to-gate study including 16 environmental perspectives, focusing on climate change impact

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

    Author : Rebecca Nibelius; [2023]
    Keywords : Sodium-ion batteries; Life cycle assessment; Cradle-to-gate; Natriumbatterier; Livscykelanalys; Vagga-till-port;

    Abstract : Because of the changing energy supply landscape, with the transition towards renewable energy, an emerging demand for energy storage systems (ESS) is expected in the near future. Battery energy storage is promising to contribute to mitigate the greenhouse gas emissions, but face issues considering resource use (IEA, 2023; IRENA, 2022). READ MORE

  5. 19. Environmental analysis of asynchronous motors : A case study on the rotor and its materials

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Innovation och produktrealisering

    Author : Hanna Jansson; Mathilda Englöv; [2023]
    Keywords : Environmental impact; Sustainability; Recycling methods material metals; Circular economy CE; Product development.; Miljöpåverkan; Hållbarhet; Återvinningsmetoder material metaller; Cirkulär ekonomi CE; Produktutveckling;

    Abstract : Material efficiency strategies are of significant importance for the shift towards producing sustainable vehicles and Asynchronous motors (ASM), both for current and new developments. Strategies such as a lightweight design, product lifetime extension, recyclability, and a material selection process based on the three branches of sustainability (ecological, economical, and social).
