  1. 11. Estimation of possibility to implement fuel cell technology for decentralized energy supply in Russia

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Aleksandra Sveshnikova; [2015]
    Keywords : hydrogen; fuel cell; gasification; steam reforming process; efficiency; energy system; stand-alone power generation; electrochemical cell; SOFC; PEMFC;

    Abstract : Industrial power generation is an ever-changing practice. After the steam turbine was invented energy production developed with accelerated tempo. Coal replaced wood, oil replaced coal and after natural gas started being used as an energy source, no one could even imagine better and cleaner energy technologies. READ MORE

  2. 12. Cogeneration unit modifications to maximize the electricity generation in Cuban sugar mills

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Louise Nylund; Laura Puskoriute; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The electricity usage in the world is constantly increasing and it is therefore of high importance to improve the utilization of renewable energy sources. The electricity in Cuba is mainly generated from imported fossil fuels which have a negative environmental effect by a large contribution of carbon dioxide emissions. READ MORE

  4. 14. High temperature corrosion on heat exchanger material exposed to alkali salt deposits

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

    Author : Kajsa Persson; [2015]
    Keywords : high temperature corrosion; alkali salt; deposits; heat exchanger;

    Abstract : Power generation through decentralized small scale CHP would facilitate the use of biomass as an energy source, with the externally fired gas turbine (EFGT) being a promising technology due to its high electrical efficiency. In an EFGT hot flue gases are heat-exchanged with an air cycle, driving the turbine. READ MORE

  5. 15. Energy Efficiency and Carbon Management in Mineral Processing Plants

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Wilson Miti; [2014]
    Keywords : Energy Efficiency; Carbon Management; Carbon emissions trading; integrated energy and carbon management; energy-related emissions; mineral processing; carbon emissions in mineral processing; energy and carbon auditing; waste heat recovery in mineral processing; waste heat recovery for power generation; flue gas heat recovery;

    Abstract : Copper processing plants involved in smelting, electro-refining and electro-winning are heat-intensive undertakings that provide extensive challenges for attainment of high energy efficiency. Literature has shown that most of these plants, especially smelters, operate at low overall energy efficiency due to the seemingly complex energy scenario where heat and electricity as forms of energy are treated distinctively from each other.
