2. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraAbstract : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. READ MORE

4. Techno-economic Optimization for Large-Scale Power-to-methane Systems : Techno-economic modeling, design and optimization of a large scale 2.0 TWh/y solar-to-methane plant concept in Australia
University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologiAbstract : Industrialized societies are built on the limited, extraordinary dense form of energy that are the fossil fuels: coal, oil, and gas, that became the core driver of the economic growth since the industrial revolution. While most emission pathways highlight the necessity to reach net zero emissions before 2050, there are numerous challenges to the displacement of fossil fuels by renewable energy systems (local conditions, intermittency, raw materials) and applications to the most polluting sectors such as transportation remain a major challenge.
