  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. Techno-economic Analysis of Biomass Conversion to Hard Carbon Materials

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Yuxin Liu; [2022]
    Keywords : Biomass; hard carbon production; process simulation; Aspen plus; techno-economic analysis; Biomassa; produktion av hårt kol; processimulering; Aspen plus; teknoekonomisk analys; Biomassa; produktion av hårt kol; processimulering; Aspen plus; teknoekonomisk analys;

    Abstract : Hard carbon is an important material for future fossil-free transport systems, as it is a popular choice for the production of anodes for sodium-ion batteries. Biomass is a popular carbonaceous raw material for making hard carbon. READ MORE

  6. 5. The prospects of using acoustic particle separation techniques to separate heavy metals from lake- and seabed sediments

    University essay from KTH/Marcus Wallenberg Laboratoriet MWL

    Author : Ohan Lundblad; [2021]
    Keywords : acoustic particle separation; ultrasound; acoustics; particle separation; akustisk partikelseparation; ultraljud; akustik; partikelseparation; akustisk partikelseparationsteknik; akustisk separationsteknik;

    Abstract : This work aims to investigate if it is realistic to use acoustic particle separation techniques for separating heavy-metals from pump-dredged seabed sediments on a large scale. A premise for the project has been that the material should undergo hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) before acoustic treatment. READ MORE
