    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master); Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (CI)

    Author : Eleni Pechlivani; [2023]
    Keywords : 1; 3-Propanediol; Glycerol dehydratase; 3-Propanediol dehydrogenase; Glycerol dehydratase reactivase; E. coli; Protein expression; Biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The biodiesel sector has witnessed tremendous growth in recent years, leading to a significant increase in glycerol production as a by-product. Addressing the challenge of glycerol valorization is crucial for the sustainability of the biodiesel industry. READ MORE

  3. 2. Recovery of Dialcohol Cellulose using Micro- and Ultrafiltration Processes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Lina Näslund; Gabriella Petersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Membrane filtration; Ultrafiltration; Microfiltration; Dialcohol cellulose; DAC; Bioplastics; Chemical engineering; Process design; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The waste management and production of plastic play a concerning part in global warming and continues to have a negative effect on the environment. A promising strategy to address this challenge is to develop new sustainable materials, to replace current fossil-based plastics. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessment of the energetic feasibility of a novel CHP biorefinery concept

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Ângelo Miguel Mendes Ferreira; [2023]
    Keywords : biorefinery; bioenergy; biomimicry; combined heat and power; Earth Power Lodge; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study investigates the potential for energetic self-reliance in an integrated biore- finery, the Earth Power Lodge (EPL), which aims to convert waste into valuable by- products through bio- and thermochemical conversion processes. The primary questions addressed include assessing the necessity of external propane to sustain the pyrolysis process and the net energy output of the ThermoChemical Reactor (TCR) process when fractional distillation is applied to the resulting bio-oils.

  5. 4. Carbon Capture for Biomass Combustion

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Anders Amundsson; [2023]
    Keywords : beccs; ccs; carbon capture; AMP DMSO; amine absorption; heat integration; chemical engineering; environmental engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In order to limit global warming, bioenergy carbon capture and storage (BECCS) technologies are getting increased attention. To meet emission scenarios, an estimated 4000 carbon capture plants are expected to be required by 2030, indicating that progress in carbon capture and storage (CCS) deployment is currently lagging behind expectation.
