  1. 1. Integration of an industrial heat pump for a TES-based power-to-heat system : A techno-economic assessment

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

    Author : Cristian Contreras Aramayo; [2023]
    Keywords : Heat; electricity; industrial heat pump; power-to-heat;

    Abstract : This work aims to investigate the potential electricity savings, as well as the potential decrease in LCoH and OPEX, that an integration of an industrial heat pump can have on a molten salt-based power-to-heat system with integrated thermal energy storage. The original system uses an electric heater to heat up molten salt, which acts as the heat transfer fluid of the system, from which heated steam can be produced and delivered at the output.

    Abstract : Radiation protection is of importance for the general public, patients and personnel in many different situations: rare accidents involving ionizing radiation, medical examinations or work tasks in the medical clinic or nuclear industry to name a few. Optimization in radiation protection and limitation of radiation doses are essential to prevent overexposure and for reducing negative health consequences. READ MORE

  6. 5. Fluorine-free electrolytes for Li-ion batteries

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturkemi

    Author : Filippa Wahlfort; [2021]
    Keywords : Li-ion batteries; fluorine-free;

    Abstract : Lithium-ion batteries are of great importance for today's society. The state-of-the-art batteries that are used today use a fluorinated electrolyte that contains the salt LiPF6 and acts as both a safety hazard and an environmental issue due to its ability to form the toxic gas hydrogen fluoride (HF).
