  3. 7. Life Cycle Assessment of a small scale, solar driven HVR water purification system

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

    Author : Sharang Kolathur; [2022]
    Keywords : life cycle assessment; air gap membrane distillation; solar energy; levelized cost; grid operated system; livscykelanalys; luftgapmembrandestillation; solenergi; utjämnade kostnader; nätdrivet system;

    Abstract : Water purification systems have made access to drinking water easier by treating water sources which previously could not be used for drinking. Such systems however require energy and materials to build and operate which means they have environmental impacts. READ MORE

  4. 8. Decarbonising the Mining Industry: The Case of Dannemora Iron Ore Mine

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Felix Meyer; [2022]
    Keywords : Sustainable Energy Transition; Decarbonisation; Electrification; LCI; Mining; Iron ore; Dannemora.;

    Abstract : The Swedish mining and minerals sector is one of the most prominent greenhouse gas emitters in the country. At the same time, it also provides Sweden and other nations with vast amounts of important metals and minerals, which are not easily replaced. READ MORE

  5. 9. Coupling of Material Flow Analysis and Life Cycle Assessment to Analyze the Urban Metabolism of a Swedish City

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik
