  1. 6. Investigation of a CO-Production of Substitute Natural Gas and Biomethanol Plant Compared to Stand Alone Biomethanol Plant

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Susanne Brixland; [2019]
    Keywords : biomethanol; SNG; substitute natural gas; co-production; gasification; gasifier; biomass; syngas; chemical engineering; kemiteknik; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Climate change is one of humanities greatest challenges; the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are still increasing. There is not one solution that will fix this problem several different products, raw material and technologies are required to take the steps towards a renewable society. READ MORE

    Abstract : This report travels through multiple disciplines to seek innovative and sustainable energy solutions for wastewater treatment plants. The first subject is a report about increased global temperatures and an over-exploitation of natural resources that threatens ecosystems worldwide. READ MORE

  4. 8. Point source carbon capture by porous inorganic carbonates

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nanoteknologi och funktionella material

    Author : Jonas Hultberg; [2018]
    Keywords : Carbon capture; Gas separation; Adsorbent; Inorganic carbonates; Point source; Carbon dioxide; Kolavskiljning; Adsorbenter; Oorganiska karbonater; Punktkälla; Koldioxid;

    Abstract : Mesoporous inorganic carbonates (MIC) was synthesized and tested as adsorbents for CO2, using vacuum and temperature swing adsorption. Mesoporous magnesium carbonate (MMC), mesoporous calcium carbonate (MCC) and mesoporous calcium magnesium carbonate (MCMC), all included in MIC, are exceedingly porous with an amorphous structure.

  5. 9. Transformation of lignin into biobased thermoset

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Linnea Cederholm; [2018]
    Keywords : lignin; microwave heating; solvolysis; biobased thermoset; lignin; mikrovågsbaserad teknik; solvolys; biobaserad härdplast;

    Abstract : Combined microwave assisted extraction/degradation of technical lignin in green solvents was successfully employed to generate polyphenolic oligomers with lower Mw than the starting material. For Lignoboost, the highest liquid yield (65 %) was obtained in 20 min at 160 °C using ethanol as solvent. READ MORE

  6. 10. Power and Methanol Production from Biomass Combined With Solar and Wind Energy : Analysis and Comparison

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Husni Firmansyah; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The purpose of this work is to investigate the feasibility of an integrated system consisting of biomass-based power generation built-in with carbon capture technology combined with a water electrolysis unit operated by solar cells and wind turbines to produce fuel through the methanol synthesis process. The configurations are examined both technically and economically to determine their feasibility, and subjected to sensitivity analysis to determine their economic viability and optimum performance.
