1. 1. Prospects for standardisation of industrial PET plastics to support the transition towards a circular economy

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

   Author : Agnes Ström; [2024]
   Keywords : Standard; standardisation; industrial PET; polyethylene terephthalate; circular economy; plastic; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Plastkonsumtionen har ökat markant över tid och har utvecklats till ett viktigt material i dagens samhälle, men med utmaningen att råvaran främst kommer från fossila källor. Användningen av plast är i linje med den linjära ekonomin och den så kallade slit-och-släng-kulturen, vilket bidrar till felaktig hantering av plastavfall och en ineffektiv användning av resurser.

3. 2. Weight Optimization of Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine Blades constructed in Swedish Fossil Free Steel : With respect to fatigue life time

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

   Author : Johannes Hall; Albin Larsson; [2023]
   Keywords : VAWT; Wind Turbine Blade; SSAB; Fossil-Free; Weight Optimization; Topology Optimization; Sizing Optimization; NACA 0018; STRENX 1300; Abaqus; Tosca Structure; VAWT; Vindturbinblad; SSAB; Fossilfritt; Viktoptimering; Topologioptimering; Size-Optimering; NACA 0018; STRENX 1300; Abaqus; Tosca Structure;

   Abstract : Wind turbines have been utilized for centuries to harness energy from the wind. Commercial wind turbine blades are typically made from composite materials, which are difficult to recycle, leading to blades ending up in landfills at the end of their lifecycle. Additionally, these materials contribute to microplastic pollution. READ MORE

4. 3. End-of-life wind blade recycling through thermal process

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

   Author : Kerstin Benz; [2023]
   Keywords : Wind Turbine Blades; Recycling; Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic; Molten Salt Pyrolysis;

   Abstract : Renewable energy production with wind turbines has been rising in the last 30 years and it is a crucial technology, which is necessary for the energy transition. As sustainable as the energy production of wind turbines is, the waste management of the blade material is not. Most of the blades end up on a landfill or get incinerated. READ MORE

5. 4. End of Life Wind Turbine Blade Recycling : Challenges From an Environmental, Economic and Practical Viewpoint

   University essay from

   Author : Daniel Hagfeldt; [2022]
   Keywords : Wind power; Wind turbine; Wind Turbine Blade; Recycling; Glass fibre; Carbon fibre; Centre-of-gravity method;

   Abstract : The goal of the European Union is to make strides towards a circular economy. This means recycling or re-using as much of the material in the economic system as possible. The wind industry faces a great challenge in the years to come as huge quantities of increasingly larger wind turbines reach the end of their service-life. READ MORE

6. 5. Electrochemical Behavior of the High Entropy Oxide (Mg,Co,Ni,Zn)1-xLixO (x=0,35)

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Rasmus Sandström Kinnane; [2022]
   Keywords : high entropy oxides; lithium-ion battery; x-ray diffraction; scanning electron microscopy; cyclic voltammetry;

   Abstract : Today's society is currently developing lithium-ion batteries to eventually replace the use of fossil fuels. High entropy oxides is a new type of material to use as an anode in the lithium-ion battery. These high entropy oxides may consist of a few different transition metals including lithium and oxygen.
