  1. 1. A geological investigation on bedrock suitability for mineral carbonation conducted in the south central part of Sweden

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

    Author : Edvard Pearson; [2023]
    Keywords : Mineral carbonation; geological investigation; Åsensbruk; Falun; Grums; Öje; Skutskär;

    Abstract : Increasing global temperatures due to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases is one of our times most dire and urgent challenges to overcome if we are to achieve a sustainable healthy planet. The primary way of accomplishing this is by reducing the amount of released greenhouse gases. READ MORE

  3. 2. Biobased iron pellet production : Assessment of the availability and sustainability of biomass as fuel for iron ore pellet production in LKAB

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, design och hållbar utveckling (2023-)

    Author : Magnus Kemi; [2023]
    Keywords : bio-energy; biomass; coal; greenhouse gas emissions; industrial residues; LCA; LKAB; logging residues; iron ore; pellets; sinters; willow; sustainability;

    Abstract : Iron production accounts for substantial shares of global coal use and GHG emissions. LKAB is Europe’s largest iron company and Sweden’s fourth-largest emitter of GHGs. To reduce its emissions, LKAB might implement biomass in iron ore pelletisation. READ MORE

  4. 3. Calcium Oxide based Carbon Capture in District Energy Systems

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Mit Jayesh Vora; [2022]
    Keywords : BioCCS; BECCS; Post Combustion; Calcium looping CaL process; Techno-economic assessment; District heating;

    Abstract : Global carbon emissions are higher than ever before and in the last decade of 21st century, focus has shifted on reducing these emissions in various ways possible. Carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) has been identified as one of the important ways to reduce carbon emissions and meet climate targets. READ MORE

  5. 4. Mapping Carbon Storage and Potential Bioenergy Production in Södertälje Using High-resolution Biotope Database

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Lisa Åkerström; [2022]
    Keywords : Carbon storage; Carbon; Bioenergy; Bioenergy production; GIS; GIS-analysis; Scenario analysis; Biotope database; High-resolution biotope database; energy forests; CHP; heating plant; Bio-CCS; BECCS; carbon; carbon storage; carbon storage map; biotope database; Biotopdatabasen;

    Abstract : Global warming is caused by the human induced increase of Greenhouse Gases (GHG) in the atmosphere. GHG emissions need to be reduced, and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil sources ceased to mitigate global warming. Energy production and use is a main contributor to fossil sourced emissions in Europe. READ MORE

  6. 5. Simulation of stripper modifications for bioenergy carbon capture by absorption

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Laia Villar I Comajoan; [2021]
    Keywords : BECCS; Carbon capture; Post-combustion absorption; Potassium carbonate; Energy Penalty; BECCS; Koldioxid infångning; Absorption efter förbränning; Kaliumkarbonat; Energistraff;

    Abstract : Att koldioxidutsläppen neutraliseras är avgörande för att begränsa klimatförändringarna. Bioenergi i kombination med separation och lagring av koldioxid (BECCS) är en Teknik som kan generera negativa utsläpp. Det största hindret för dess storskaliga genomförande är de höga energikraven för processen.
