  1. 1. High-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage for Innovative Hybrid CSP/PV Plants : A Comprehensive Design Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Lorenzo Centonze; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : By means of a literature review, critical parameters in the context of thermal energy storage systems, particularly packed bed thermal energy storage systems are identified. The goals of this thesis project are to come up with an optimized design for a PBSTES and to evaluate the thermal performance of alternative storage materials derived from byproducts of industrial processes and natural rocks in order to reduce the environmental impact of the designed system.

  3. 2. Possibilities of Reducing Internal Scrap Rates and Increase Scrap Recyclability of Dilute Copper Alloys from Vertical Upwards Continuous Cast (VUCC) Process

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Minna Olsson; [2023]
    Keywords : metallurgy; copper; alloy; continuous casting; materials chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Copper and copper alloys are important material systems for the electrification of society. The high workability of the materials makes them appropriate in numerous different applications which require highly conductive properties. READ MORE

  4. 3. Iron Pieces from The Copper Wreck : An archaeometallurgical analysis of iron bars, billets and osmund iron found in Gdansk, Poland

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Mikael Ghaysari; Benjamin Tiberghien; Maximilian Åkerblom Jonsson; [2022]

    Abstract : The topic of osmund iron is of great interest in both historical and metallurgical perspective. Between the 14th and the 17th century osmund iron was exported extensively from Sweden but it has been difficult to characterize and confirm what exactly osmund iron is. READ MORE

  5. 4. Recovery of Cobalt and Copper from Zambia Slag via Sulphidisation with Gypsum

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Lloyd Masuzyo Mseteka; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The main objective of this research was to recover copper and cobalt from slags coming from copper processing on the Copperbelt province of Zambia. Pyrometallurgical processing of copper sulphide concentrate generates huge tonnes of slag wastes. READ MORE
