  1. 6. Qualitative analysis of a regional public policy for air quality : A case study of Normandie, France

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Arthur Avenas; [2021]
    Keywords : Atmospheric pollution; Atmosphere Protection Plan; policy planning; legislation; incentive measures; best practices; reduction of emissions; regional scale; case study; Normandie;

    Abstract : Today, outdoor air quality occupies an important place into civic dialogue because of the many impacts of atmospheric pollution on health. Different legislations and strategies have thus been implemented across the world to improve outdoor air quality. READ MORE

  3. 7. Life cycle assessment of hybrid systems for rural electrification in Bolivia

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

    Author : Sandu Seres; [2021]
    Keywords : Diesel; Stirling; Photovoltaic; impact category;

    Abstract : Bolivia is a developing country in South America. Many rural communities still lack access to electricity. The extension of the National Grid System to all rural communities is not feasible due to economic and topographic challenges as well as the environmental problems that may arise. To tackle these problems, Off-grid solutions are implemented. READ MORE

  4. 8. The Potential of Electrification in reducing Emissions from Passenger Cars in Stockholm County by 2030 : A Modeling Study of the Potential of Plug-In Hybrids and All-Electric Cars in reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Air Pollution

    University essay from KTH/Transport och systemanalys

    Author : Arvid Hedbäck; [2021]
    Keywords : electric cars; electrification; Stockholm; 2030; modeling; Scaper; HBEFA; CO2; air pollution; nitrogen oxides; NOx; hydrocarbons; HC; particulate matter; PM10; PM2.5;

    Abstract : This study examines the potential of electrification in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution from passenger cars in a short- to mid-term time perspective. Using Stockholm County as a case study, this has been done in a three-step process by modeling the relative change in emissions between 2019 and 2030. READ MORE

  5. 9. Simulation of air quality in underground train stations

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Benjamin Söderberg; [2020]
    Keywords : PM10; aerosols; air pollution; particulate matter; emission factors; underground train station; PM10; luftkvalité; tåg; emissionsfaktorer; underjordiska tågstationer;

    Abstract : Particulate matter (PM) is a widespread air pollutant of microscopic particles that are suspended in the atmosphere. There is high concentration of PM in underground train stations and tunnels. The concentration of particulate matter (PM10) measured in Stockholm’s metro varies significantly between day and nighttime traffic of trains. READ MORE

  6. 10. Planetary boundary layer height measurements in a rural environment in southern Sweden - Relation to meteorological parameters and aerosol particle concentrations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Ellen Carneheim; [2020]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The aim of this project is to analyse planetary boundary layer height (BLH) measurements from the Hyltemossa research station and find their dependence on seasonality, time of day, and air temperature. Further, investigation was made into the correlation between mass concentration of particulate matter with equivalent diameter... READ MORE
