1. 21. Small-scale biogas : A techno-economic comparison of Internal Combustion Engines, Micro Gas Turbines and Stirling Engines

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

   Author : Emil Sund; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Gas driven power generation is expected to increase in the near future due to significantly lesser environmental impact than oppose to conventional fuels like coal and oil. Today, Natural Gas (NG) is the dominant product on the market and biogas, which originates from degradable organic waste, has not reached its full market potential due to bottlenecks in utilization.

3. 22. Investigation of carbon capture technologies for Sävenäs waste-to-energy plant

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Jasmine Andersson; [2020]
   Keywords : CCS; flue gas treatment; waste incineration; energy balance; emission abatement;

   Abstract : Carbon capture technologies have the potential to decarbonize the emissions to air from the heat and power sector and contribute to the necessary greenhouse gas emission mitigation in order to meet the Paris Agreement requirements. The energy requirement and ability to retrofit carbon capture units are crucial to convert existing power plants into more environmental benign processes to meet the Swedish national goal of greenhouse gas neutrality at 2045.

5. 24. Practical implementation of Bio-CCS in Uppsala : A techno-economic assessment

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Robert Djurberg; [2020]
   Keywords : BECCS; Bio-CCS; CCS; techno-economic assessment; BECCS; Bio-CCS; CCS; teknoekonomisk analys;

   Abstract : To decrease global warming, bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (Bio-CCS) has been proposed as an effective and necessary tool. Combusting biomass and capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the same process results in net negative emissions, hence, reducing the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. READ MORE

6. 25. An investigation of some properties of Shredder Fines and an element analysis of its ash to find new ways of dealing with this waste

   University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

   Author : Adeel Naidoo; [2020]
   Keywords : Shredder fines; Bottom ash; Ash analysis; Combustion; Chemical fractionation; Elemental analysis; Cement industry; Metal recovery;

   Abstract : Shredder fines are the materials with a particle size of less than 10 mm resulting from the shredding of vehicles and complex metal scrap from industries and municipalities. This waste is currently used as landfill construction material, but Stena Recycling wanted to know whether the bottom ash from the combustion of this waste could be useful to the cement industry, and whether it would be feasible to extract Cu and Zn from this ash.
