1. 1. Reprocessing and Characterization of Polybenzimidazole for High-Temperature Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

   Author : Douglas Björkengren; [2023]
   Keywords : polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells; PEMFC; HTPEMFC; polymer technology; polymer characterization; reprocessing; recycling; polybenzimidazole; PBI; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A reprocessing method of poly(2,2’-(m-phenylene)-5,5’-bibenzimidazole) (PBI) membranes recovered from the production line of High-Temperature Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (HT-PEMFC) at Blue World Technologies (BWT) has been developed in order to reduce material loss in the production. Redissolution of scrap PBI membranes in poly(phosphoric acid) (PPA) and phosphoric acid (PA) was successful and the subsequent washing procedure produced PBI that could be redissolved in N,N-dimethyl acetamide (DMAc) and suitable for solution casting of new membranes.

3. 2. Sunshine Tomorrow : Assessing the emission mitigation effects of photovoltaic systems in Sweden

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

   Author : Lucas Åkerman; [2023]
   Keywords : emission mitigation; energy market; environmental policy; sweden;

   Abstract : Global warming is an impending crisis that poses severe ecological and economic consequences if left unaddressed. The primary cause of this crisis is the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2), making it crucial to identify and implement effective emission-mitigating measures. READ MORE

4. 3. The Nuclear Dilemma : A Study on the Nuclear Energy Growth Nexus and Greenhouse Gas Emissions

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Nationalekonomi; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

   Author : Pontus Karlsson; Felicia Uebel; [2023]
   Keywords : Economic Growth; Energy Growth Nexus; Nuclear Energy Growth Nexus; Econometrics; Economics; Nuclear Power; Nuclear Consumption; Energy Consumption; Energy Production; Environmental Kuznets Curve; Greenhouse Gas Emissions; IPI; Nuclear Dilemma; Granger Causality Test; Energy; Oil; Ekonomisk tillväxt; Energi-Tillväxt Sambandet; Kärnkraftsenergi-Tillväxt Sambandet; Ekonometri; Ekonomi; Kärnkraft; Kärnkraftskonsumtion; Energikonsumtion; Energiproduktion; Växthusgasutsläpp; Kärnkraftsdilemmat; Energi; Olja;

   Abstract : The relationship between energy consumption and economic growth has been a popular topic in recent studies, with a considerable amount of literature conducted, although there still is no consensus regarding the relationship. Few studies have analysed the nuclear energy growth nexus with greenhouse gas emissions, and none have used the same method, data, and sample period. READ MORE

5. 4. Identification of shape errors in a parabolic solar collector : An improvement to the analysing algorithms examining the solar collector from optical measurements

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Malin Gelfgren; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Increasing global warming with droughts, forest fires and melting polar ice has forced the world to speed up the transition from fossil fuel to fossil free energy. A big part of it is the use of solar energy. To obtain solar thermal energy, different sorts of solar collectors have been developed. READ MORE

6. 5. Arctic Tourism Fantasies : Tour Operators' perceptions of a winter landscape

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för marknadsföring och turismvetenskap (MTS)

   Author : Szabolcs Harhai; [2023]
   Keywords : Arctic; Arctic tourism; climate change; landscape; landscape perceptions; adaptation; Rovaniemi; Finnish Lapland;

   Abstract : The effects of global warming are evident throughout the Arctic, which is warming much more quickly than the rest of the planet and is increasingly being referred to as a fragile environment. The tourism industry in the area, which is built around notions of enchanted wintertime fantasy landscapes, is directly impacted by the effects of climate change. READ MORE
