1. 1. Exploring potential E-fuel production pathways for maritime and aviation sectors in France : a techno-economic and environmental assessment

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

   Author : Mathieu Minaud; [2024]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The aviation and maritime industries pose significant challenges for decarbonization, having increased activity in the past decade. One promising solution to limit emissions in these sectors is Electrofuels (E-fuel), derived from water electrolysis hydrogen and captured CO2 or nitrogen. 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. Harmonised traffic load model between Eurocode 1 - part 2 (EN 1991-2) and TRV specifications : A pilot study on reinforced concrete portal frame bridges

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Mubashar Amir Ablahad; Nuredin Rasslan; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The advancement of society has led to an increase in demand for infrastructure, particularly bridges, which are designed in accordance with different design codes. In Sweden, bridge design adheres to the Eurocode and national code (TRV specifications), with the most adverse scenario of the two codes determining the basis for bridge design. READ MORE

5. 4. Control of carbon dioxide capture from biomass CHP plants : Designing a suitable control system to realize the flexible operation of the CO2 capture system

   University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

   Author : Tanmmay Rout; [2023]
   Keywords : Carbon capture; biomass fired combined heat and power plant; MEA based chemical absorption; flue gas; dynamic operation; PI controllers;

   Abstract : This degree project studies the integration of carbon capture system into biomass fired combined heat and power (bio-CHP) plants. The key disturbances from bio-CHP plants include flue gas flow rate, carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration and available heat for the reboiler because the use of versatile biomass and the dynamic operation of CHP plants results in large fluctuations in the properties of flue gas and the heat input for CO2 capture.
