3. 2. Integrating Waste Heat from Hydrogen Production Into District Heating

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Fawzi Kayali; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydrogen; Electrolysis; Waste Heat Recovery; Combined Heat and Power Plant; District Heating; Simulation; Sustainable Heating Systems; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The aim of this research is to explore the feasibility of the integration of waste heat from electrolyzers within a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant and district heating (DH) network and suggest a practical setup for integration. With the escalating emphasis on the development of green hydrogen through electrolysis powered by renewable energy, a substantial amount of waste heat is generated, typically left unused. READ MORE

4. 3. Techno-economic analysis and simulation of low temperature district heating networks

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

   Author : Ilia Iarkov; [2023]
   Keywords : Low-temperature district heating; Modelica; BTES; LCA; LCC; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. READ MORE

5. 4. Methodology for Stored Heat “Heat In Place” (HIP) assessment of geothermal aquifers – Exemplified by a study of the Arnager Greensand in SW Scania

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

   Author : Oskar Sundberg; [2023]
   Keywords : geothermal energy; geothermal resource assessment; geothermal potential; volume method; volumetric method; recovery factor; direct use; direct heat; Mesozoic aquifers; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : In the sedimentary bedrock of southwest Scania, located in the southernmost part of Sweden, there are several low-enthalpy Mesozoic sandstone aquifers situated at different depths. These aquifers collectively hold the potential for direct-heat geothermal utilization. READ MORE

6. 5. Stability improvement to a ruthenium catalyst for partial oxidation of methane

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Author : Melker Axelsson; [2023]
   Keywords : catalysis; reaction engineering; kinetics; partial oxidation; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Catalytic partial oxidation of methane (CPOM) is an energy-efficient alternative to steam reforming, the currently prevailing method for energy production from natural gas. Hulteberg Chemistry & Engineering AB has developed a catalyst for the partial oxidation of methane into syngas, for use in solid oxide fuel cells. READ MORE
