  1. 1. Modelling the chemical recycling of plastic waste via pyrolysis and analysing integration with existing refinery infrastructure

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Simon Dahl; [2023]
    Keywords : Pyrolysis; Recycling; Integration; Modelling; Simulation; Techno-economic; Plastic; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Current plastic management is unsustainable as large amounts of plastic end up landfilled or in the ocean, necessitating an expansion of waste management infrastructure. Pyrolysis is a viable chemical recycling option, and in this report a pyrolysis model is constructed in Aspen Plus. READ MORE

  2. 2. Assessing the economic and environmental impacts of leasing batteries for electric vehicle fleets

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

    Author : Miguel Angel Gonzalez Salazar; Georgios Kormazos; [2023]
    Keywords : circularity; LCA; NPV; leasing; batteries; electric vehicles;

    Abstract : Battery electric vehicles (BEV) powered by renewable energy are expected to enable a largedecarbonization of the land-based transport. Recent estimations of the International EnergyAgency suggest that BEVs could grow 20-fold by 2030, reaching 200 to 350 million unitsglobally. READ MORE

  3. 3. BMA / BEURA : Evolving inhabitation through self-building and adaptive reuse

    University essay from KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Author : Karl Hedin; [2023]
    Keywords : Self-building; adaptive reuse; circular construction; Bromma airport; dynamic plotting; Självbyggeri; återbruk; cirkulär konstruktion; Bromma flygplats; dynamisk plottning;

    Abstract : My thesis, "BMA (Bromma airport) / BEURA (Bromma experimental urban recycling association), an adaptive rebirth", explores the potential for an evolution of self-built circular inhabitation on the airport runway of Bromma through adaptive reuse and circular construction. The Bromma Airport in Stockholm is set to cease operation by 2038, leaving behind a vast expanse of infrastructure that could be repurposed for other uses. READ MORE

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

    Author : Felicia Dyberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Jet Engine Recycling; Recycling of Aircraft; End-of-life Engines; End-of-life Aircraft; Sustainable Recycling; Innovative Recycling; Engine Materials; Circular Economy; 3D-printing.; Jetmotoråtervinning; Återvinning av Flygplan; Uttjänta Motorer; Uttjänta Flygplan; Hållbar Återvinning; Innovativ Återvinning; Motormaterial; Cirkulär Ekonomi; 3D-Utskrift.;

    Abstract : The focus on sustainability development together with the growing market of end-of-life jet engines is a reason for performing research on how to improve the recycling of jet engines. The reuse and recycling of the jet engines contributes to decreasing the need for new extracted material and processing and manufacturing new parts. READ MORE

  5. 5. Reuse and recycling of concrete : Economic barriers and possible opportunities for future profitability

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Julia Knutsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Reuse; Recycling; Circular economy; Construction industry; Building material; Concrete industry;

    Abstract : Today, the world's natural ecosystems are threatened by increased extraction of raw materials andgreenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere. One of the drivers of this problem is the impact fromindustries through their production. A possible strategy to reduce pressure on natural ecosystems is toincrease the use of industrial ecosystems.
