  1. 1. Exploring Particulate Filtration during Thermal Runaway in Lithium-Ion Battery Packs

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Amanda Halvarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : battery pack; particles; thermal runaway; filtration; batteripack; partiklar; termisk rusning; filtrering;

    Abstract : Med övergången till elektrifiering inom transport uppstår nya utmaningar när det gäller batterisystem som placeras i elfordon. Det finns för närvarande en möjlighet att minska riskerna med toxiciteten hos partiklar som sprutas ut med de gaser som bildas under termisk rusning i litiumjonbattericeller som är placerade i batterisystem.

  3. 2. Improvement of Pt-based catalyst supported on CeZrO2 used for the high-temperature water-gas shift reaction

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Milda Grikainyte; [2022]
    Keywords : Water-gas shift; catalyst; chemical engineering; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The iron-chromium (Fe/Cr) catalyst is used for high-temperature water-gas shift (HT WGS) reaction. A major concern using the Fe/Cr catalyst is that it contains hexavalent chromium (Cr+6) which is a potent carcinogen causing health and environmental issues. READ MORE

  4. 3. Exposure of zinc oxide nanoparticles on lung epithelium: A comparison between submerged and air-liquid interface cultures

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Author : Julia Dobric; [2019]
    Keywords : lung toxicology; nanotoxicology; aerosol; air-liquid interface; ALI; NACIVT; nanoparticles; zinc oxide; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are often used in sunscreen and other cosmetic products with sun protection. They are also candidate to be used for various biological applications such as drug delivery, or in material science in for example solar cells. READ MORE

  5. 4. Development of Wet Electrostatic Precipitator for Generation of Nanoparticle-Protein Solution

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Author : Julia Adner; [2015]
    Keywords : WESP; Nanoparticle; bioligical identity; protein solution; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : To examine nanoparticle toxicity there is a need to produce defined nanoparticles dispersed in a colloidal suspension. Such a solution could also be interesting for other fields such as nano-medicine. In order to disperse the particles in the liquid there are often surfactant added to the process that alternates the surface of the particles. READ MORE

  6. 5. The Effect of Protein Corona on Gold Nanoparticles Aggregation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Nada Abdulla; [2015]
    Keywords : cow serum and IgG; PGB1; corona; Gold nanoparticles; Protein Science; proteinvetenskap; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Nanoparticles (NPs) are the particles between 1 and 100 nm. They are widely used in the medical field as delivery vehicles, therapeutics and contrast agents in cancer diagnosis and treatment. There are different types of NPs divided according to the source of used materials. READ MORE
