  1. 16. Optimization of alloys recovery in steel scrap sorting : Technological, economic and environmental considerations for a better chromium, nickel and molybdenum recovery in steel scrap

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Simone Quintè; [2023]
    Keywords : Steel scrap sorting; stainless steel; Chromium; Nickel; Molybdenum; alloys recovery; Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy; revenue modeling; CO2 emissions modeling; Stålskrot Sortering; rostfritt stål; Krom; Nickel; Molybden; återvinning av legeringar; Laserinducerad nedbrytningsspektroskopi; intäktsmodellering; Modellering av CO2-utsläpp;

    Abstract : Today’s steelmaking industry is highly dependent on steel scrap supply. In order to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) deriving from the steel industry, it is of utmost importance to ensure that high percentages of steel scrap are recycled, reducing the reliance on the traditional ore-based steelmaking, which is significantly more environmentally impactful.

  2. 17. Calibration of the Measurement System for Methane Pyrolysis in Rocket Nozzle Cooling Channels

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

    Author : Jennifer Ly; [2023]
    Keywords : Correlational method; gas analysis; real time measurements; speed of sound; thermal conductivity; methane pyrolysis; rocket nozzle cooling; Korrelationsmetod; gasanalys; mätningar i real tid; ljudhastighet; värmeledningsförmåga; metanpyrolys; kylning av raketmunstycken iv;

    Abstract : Methane-based rocket propellant is gaining traction as a green technology with advantages in sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and performance. However, under high temperatures found in rocket nozzle cooling channels, methane can undergo thermal decomposition known as methane pyrolysis, resulting in the generation of hydrogen and solid carbon.

  3. 18. Integrating biomass gasification with electric arc furnace steel making

    University essay from KTH/Energiprocesser

    Author : Filippa Andersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Electric arc furnace; EAF off-gas; gasification; CCU; process integration; Ljusbågsugn avgasrök; ljusbågsugn; förgasning; kolavskiljning; process integration;

    Abstract : Utsläppen av växthusgaser ökar över hela världen och nya tekniker används för att minska utsläppen. 7% av utsläppen kommer från stålsektorn. 25% av världens stålproduktion görs via återvinningstekniken ljusbågsugn. Genom återvinningsprocessen släpps det ut 500kg CO2 per ton producerat flytande stål. READ MORE

  4. 19. Contribution to the Understanding of the Effects of Propagation through the Ionosphere of P-band SAR Data

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Johannes Samuel Erland Rönner; [2023]
    Keywords : Synthetic aperture radar; Ionosphere;

    Abstract : The BIOMASS mission from the European Space Agency (ESA) is designed to measurebiomass and carbon content in Earth’s forests. To account for phase changes caused byionospheric variations, a map-drift autofocus algorithm is developed, which utilises a phasescreen of the ionosphere to eliminate phase errors in the signal.

  5. 20. Buying carbon neutrality? : Corporate motives for financing carbon offsets

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Dennis Schmuck; [2023]
    Keywords : Carbon Offsets; Carbon Credits; Climate Change; Sustainable Development;

    Abstract : Carbon offsets are often presented as a multi-beneficial way for companies to mitigate their net climate impact while contributing environmental and social benefits on a global and local scale. Critics argue it is used to avoid more meaningful alterations to a company's own operations. READ MORE
