1. The implications of heavy fuel oil ban in arctic waters for sustainable arctic shipping
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för marina vetenskaperAbstract : The increased temperature in the polar regions is one of the significant impacts of global warming and consequential climate change. In the Arctic, regional warming leads to the accelerated loss of sea ice caps, which has opened up new international shipping routes. READ MORE

2. Development of an Accelerated Test Method for Compressed Natural Gas Fuel System Robustness against Contamination
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematikAbstract : A key factor for driving the shift towards sustainable transportation systems is alternative fuels, where compressed natural gas (CNG) is a beneficial alternative to the conventional fossil fuels with respect to greenhouse gas emissions. A fuel system is needed for heavy-duty natural gas vehicles, in order to transport the highly pressurized gas from the fuel tanks to the internal combustion engine. READ MORE

3. Continuous Hydrothermal Co-liquefaction of Biomass : An experimental study on the effects of fuel mixing on the composition and yield of biocrude and hydrochar
University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronikAbstract : An experimental study on the effect of fuel mixing on the products resulting from hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) was conducted. The feedstocks used were kraft lignin (KL), GROT (GT) and microalgae cultivated in wastewater (MA). Three sets of mixtures were prepared, each containing two types of feedstocks with a 1:1 ratio: KLGT, MAKL, and MAGT. READ MORE

4. Development and validation of sample clean-up using solid phase extraction prior oil spill fingerprinting
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiAbstract : In a forensic investigation involving oil, a comparative analysis named oil spill fingerprinting between a source and an oil spill is normally performed. It is based on detecting a certain selection of biomarkers with gas chromatography (GC) coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) which are later divided into diagnostic ratios (DRs). READ MORE

5. Development of a 3D Ring Dynamics Model For a Heavy-Duty Piston Ring-Pack
University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknikAbstract : With the increasing restrictions in emission legislations, the automotive industry aims to improve the efficiency of the lubricating system and to decrease fuel consumption. In the power cylinder unit (PCU), the piston rings are the major contributor to these consumptions. READ MORE
