1. 16. Catalytic Hydrothermal Liquefaction of Waste Sludge : A Pre-study with Model Compounds

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

   Author : Petter Lundqvist; [2016]
   Keywords : Hydrothermal; liquefaction; waste sludge; black liquor;

   Abstract : The use and research of renewable fuels has become more important due to the connection between climate changes and the use of fossil fuels. With risks of decline in petroleum production derived from fossil fuels due to limitation of resources in the future, the renewable fuels are even more important in the transport sector. READ MORE

3. 17. New system for control and monitoring of a helium liquefaction plant implemented in LabVIEW

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Tove Mattsson; [2015]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This master’s thesis report describes the development of a new system for control and monitoring of a helium liquefaction plant which has been carried out at Kryolab, Lund University. At the plant, helium gas is purified and then cooled in several steps until it condensates. READ MORE

4. 18. How to handle boil-off gases from LNG trucks

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Maskinkonstruktion; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

   Author : Linda Gunnarsson; Erik Helander; [2015]
   Keywords : LNG; Liquefied natural gas; boil-off; boil-off gases; BOG; natural gas;

   Abstract : This master thesis project aims to investigate the circumstances of boil-off for heavy vehicle transports, using LNG as fuel, and suggest possible ways of handling these gases otherwise released into the atmosphere. LNG, Liquefied Natural Gas, is when natural gas is cooled below its vaporisation point, turning it into liquid phase which is a much more dense way of storing and transporting the fuel. READ MORE

5. 19. Assessment of magnetic cooling for domestic applications

   University essay from KTH/Tillämpad termodynamik och kylteknik

   Author : Ivan Montenegro Borbolla; [2012]
   Keywords : magnetic cooling model simulation assessment domestic applications;

   Abstract : Magnetic cooling is an emerging refrigeration technology with potential to surpass the performance of vapour compression devices. It has been successfully applied in the cryogenic temperature ranges, where magnetic cooling gas liquefiers surpass the performance of conventional liquefaction systems. READ MORE

6. 20. The New Madrid Seismic Zone.

   University essay from KTH/Teknisk geologi och geofysik

   Author : Tracy Nilsson; [2011]
   Keywords : Earthquake; Liquefaction; Disaster Prevention; New Madrid Seismic Zone; Risk Analysis; Arkansas; Memphis; Mercalli Intensity Scale; Seismic Building Codes;

   Abstract : The Mississippi River Valley, is hardly known as an earthquake zone, but may in fact be a natural disaster just waiting to happen. Historical records and paleoseismic investigations have shown that large magnitude earthquakes have occurred in the area and there are constantly microquakes all along the New Madrid Fault System.
