  1. 6. Catalytic Upgrading of Fast Pyrolysis Bio-oil Using Zeolites

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Elena Wikberg; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Fast pyrolysis bio-oil is considered as a possible source for production of liquid bio-fuels and bio-chemicals enabling the necessary transition to a renewable energy system. In this Master’s thesis work the upgrading of fast pyrolysis bio-oils with Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) conversion process at industrially relevant conditions is studied using Fluid Catalytic Cracking Micro Activity Test (FCC MAT) unit at RISE ETC in Piteå, Sweden.

  4. 8. Development of a modern catalytic system for the production of C3+ aliphatic alcohols by the Fischer-Tropsch method

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Aravind Ganesan; [2019]
    Keywords : syngas; Cobalt; Fischer-Tropsch; alcohols; hydrocarbons; syngas; kobolt; Fischer-Tropsch; alkoholer; kolväten;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with converting a mixture of H2 and CO, also referred to as syngas or producer gas, to higher or mixed alcohols and other fuels through a process called Fischer Tropsch Synthesis (FTS). It is a beneficial pathway that minimizes the dependence on oil and similar fossil fuels which contribute to rapid climate change by releasing harmful greenhouse gases. READ MORE

  5. 9. Liquefaction of Softwood Bark towards Biochemicals and Biofuels

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Emma Nordström; [2018]
    Keywords : Softwood; Bark; Liquefaction; Hytrotropic acid; Lignin; Biofuel; Bio-oil; Spruce; Catalyst; Zeolite;

    Abstract : The energy consumption in the world is increasing at the same time as the fossil fuel resources are limited. This is causing a rising interest in renewable energy sources over the world. To reduce dependency on fossil fuel sources biomass is an excellent alternative. READ MORE

  6. 10. Comparison study of various current and potential liquid biofuels in road freight transport : Application on a case study on Transport Centralen in Halmstad

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Ansu Alex; [2017]
    Keywords : Liquid biofuels; Heavy transports;

    Abstract : The role of liquid biofuels in transportation to minimize the effects of climate change is  evident and has led to a number of studies on finding effective solutions to replace fossil fuels. Liquid biofuels are especially important for heavy duty transports as the effective ‘green’ alternatives are not as many compared to light duty vehicles; for which for e. READ MORE
