  1. 6. Techno-economic analysis of a waste-to-energy system using innovative pyrolysis process

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

    Author : Hannah Sofie Perrens; [2023]
    Keywords : Waste management; pyrolysis; heat and power generation; decentralized energy systems; waste-to-energy;

    Abstract : Waste management is of growing concern with increasing amount of municipal waste generation and the industry standards are becoming stricter due to climate goals and sustainable development. Waste-to-energy (WTE) systems in the form of waste incineration have been promoted as a low-carbon energy source, but nevertheless have high greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. READ MORE

  3. 7. Utilization of waste heat from hydrogen production : A case study on the Botnia Link H2 Project in Luleå, Sweden

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Andrea Miljanovic; Fredrik Jonsson; [2022]
    Keywords : PEM electrolyzer; alkaline electrolyzer; waste heat; district heating; LCOH;

    Abstract : The global hydrogen demand is steadily increasing, and one way of accelerating the green hydrogen supply is to stimulate the green hydrogen economy. Utilization of waste heat from hydrogen production can increase the profitability of produced green hydrogen. READ MORE

  4. 8. Effects of solar parabolic- trough collectors in small- scale district heating systems

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggd miljö och energiteknik (BET)

    Author : Alejandro Monterrubio; [2022]
    Keywords : Parabolic-trough collector; direct normal radiation; diffuse radiation; insolation; carbon abatement cost; biomass; District Heating; Levelized cost of energy;

    Abstract : Reducing carbon emissions in our societies requires a massive shift towards renewables. In Sweden, biomass is the dominant source for the district heat production, but growing demand for biomass in other sectors may cause pressure on it. READ MORE

  5. 9. Design of a Polygeneration system in Filipinas ETCR, Colombia

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

    Author : Germán Ropero Pérez; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This project has addressed the design of a cost-effective Polygeneration system that guarantees a continuous, equitable and environmentally friendly energy supply for the rural settlement of Filipinas ETCR, (in Spanish, Espacios Territoriales de Capacitación y Reincorporación) Colombia, which is currently not achieved, due to a system that relies on the national electricity grid (with numerous outages) and on LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) and wood to meet the thermal demand, mainly for cooking. For this purpose, in addition to the current energy supply situation, the energy demand according to type (electricity and heat) and sector (residential, commercial and agro-livestock) is characterized.
