  1. 1. Towards Water Resource Recovery Facilities : Environmentally Extended Techno-Economic Assessment of Emerging Sewage Sludge Management Technologies in Sweden

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Harry Tibbetts; [2023]
    Keywords : Circular Economy; Waste Valorisation; Systems Analysis; LCA; MFA; EFA; TEA; Hydrothermal Carbonisation; Cirkulär ekonomi; Waste Valorisation; Systems Analysis; LCA; MFA; EFA; TEA; Hydrotermal Carbonization;

    Abstract : Municipal sewage sludge (MSS) management varies widely between countries and legislative regimes. Within the European directive for sewage treatment France applies over half of MSS to arable land, while The Netherlands has banned the practice (Kelessidis et al, 2012). READ MORE

  3. 2. Odlingsförsök med Pinus sylvestris i gransågspån blandat med hydrokol respektive pyrokol

    University essay from SLU/School for Forest Management

    Author : Annica Berglund; Ninja Bernzen; [2023]
    Keywords : alternativt odlingssubstrat; näringsläckage; biokol;

    Abstract : Torv är det vanligaste odlingssubstratet som används idag till de mer än 400 miljoner skogsplantor som årligen levereras till det svenska skogsbruket. Det låga näringsinnehållet och goda vattenhållande förmågan gör att torven går att anpassa efter behov med gödsling och kalkning. READ MORE

  4. 3. Techno-economic evaluation of hydrochar via hydrothermal carbonisation of organicresidues

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Abdirahman Abdullahi; [2022]
    Keywords : Technoeconomic analysis; energy system modelling; HTC; hyrochar; system integration; OSMET;

    Abstract : This thesis has investigated the techno-economic feasibility of upgrading the sludge from a chemical pulp mill to hydrochar via hydrothermal carbonization (HTC). The intended use of the hydrochar was to replace fossil coal within metallurgical applications in the iron and steel industry. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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 elektronik

    Author : Simon Fridolfsson; [2022]
    Keywords : HTL; TGA; SEM EDS; Co-liquefaction effects; GROT; Kraft lignin; Microalgae;

    Abstract : 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

  6. 5. Influence of coal particle sizes on the mechanical strength of iron-carbon briquettes : With focus on steelmaking applications

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Daniel Zaharije Hodgson; Efe Karadag; Maxime Pierre Jean-Claude Saillen; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Replacing fossil carbon materials with renewable biocarbon is one way to reduce the net carbon dioxide emissions of the iron and steelmaking industry. Carburization is an important application in the electric arc furnace (EAF), and is mostly achieved by adding fossil-based carbon materials into the melt today. READ MORE
