  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. Assessment of the integration of solar heat power into food drying processes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Charalampos Psilopoulos; [2023]
    Keywords : Sustainable; sustainability; co2 reduction; feasibility; solar thermal; direct steam generation; drying; food industry; scope 1 emissions; sdg; sustainable development goals; spray drying; drum drying; powder; food; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The long-lasting usage of fossil fuels has brought its negative impact on the planet and thus the society is turning towards more environmentally sustainable solutions in every aspect of life. This master’s thesis discusses the novel topic of integrating concentrated solar thermal collectors, which directly produce steam, to drying processes in the food industry, which is proven to currently emit significant amounts of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs).

  3. 3. Dynamic simulation of Swedish residential building renovations and its impact on the district heating network

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

    Author : Christopher Bay; Nicolás Pinzón Muñoz; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As urbanization continues to rise, cities now account for two-thirds of the world's total energy consumption. The built environment alone contributes to 40% of total energy consumption and a third of total greenhouse gas emissions. With an additional 2. READ MORE

  4. 4. Accelerating the Green Transition - Investigating the Feasibility of E-Fuel Production Connected to a CHP Plant

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Johanna Scholtz; Alice Maillard; [2023]
    Keywords : CCU; CHP plant; e-fuels; e-methane; e-methanol; e-kerosene; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The overall purpose of this thesis is to investigate the feasibility of producing electrofuels from CO2 and H2 in connection to a CHP plant equipped with carbon capture technology. This is done by investigating the production of e-methane, e-methanol and e-kerosene from captured CO2 and H2 produced from electrolysis. READ MORE

  5. 5. Integration of an industrial heat pump for a TES-based power-to-heat system : A techno-economic assessment

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

    Author : Cristian Contreras Aramayo; [2023]
    Keywords : Heat; electricity; industrial heat pump; power-to-heat;

    Abstract : This work aims to investigate the potential electricity savings, as well as the potential decrease in LCoH and OPEX, that an integration of an industrial heat pump can have on a molten salt-based power-to-heat system with integrated thermal energy storage. The original system uses an electric heater to heat up molten salt, which acts as the heat transfer fluid of the system, from which heated steam can be produced and delivered at the output. READ MORE
