  1. 1. Study on Decolorization of Reactive-dyed Cotton through Fenton-oxidation as a Pre-treatment for Textile Recycling

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Elise Meurs; [2023]
    Keywords : Fenton-oxidation; advanced oxidation processes; decolorization; textile recycling; cotton; reactive dye;

    Abstract : In this master thesis, the feasibility of Fenton-oxidation for the decolorization of reactive dyed cotton is investigated as a potentially environmental-friendly preparatory treatment for mechanical/chemical recycling. Raw, knitted cotton is dyed with a black and a blue dye, whereafter preliminary tests are performed to investigate the influence of increasing Fenton- solution concentrations and different iron-sources on the efficiency of the discoloration, without carrying out complete optimization of the process-parameters.

  3. 2. Numerical analysis of a bearing strength in delaminated composite joint

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Olavi Kukkonen; [2023]
    Keywords : Bearing strength; Single-lap shear; Delamination; Countersinking; Hole size;

    Abstract : Composite structures are commonly joined using adhesive or mechanical joints, withmechanical joints being preferred when components need to be removable for maintenancepurposes. However, the presence of mechanical joints introduces a discontinuity in theload path, which can serve as an initiation point for failure and needs to be taken intoaccount in the design of the joint.

  4. 3. Investigations of Tool Wear Mechanisms in the Turning of Conventional, Calcium Treated and Ultraclean Steels

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Milou Göransson; [2023]
    Keywords : Clean steel; Ultraclean steel; Longitudinal turning; Cemented carbide cutting tool; Chemical vapor deposition coating; Machinability; Tool wear; Non-metallic inclusions; Rent stål; Ultrarent stål; Längdsvarvning; Hårdmetall skärverktyg; Kemisk ångdeponering beläggning; Bearbetningsbarhet; Verktygsslitage; Icke-metalliska inneslutningar.;

    Abstract : Application of clean and ultraclean steels have shown to provide favourable mechanical properties for bearings and transmission components, specifically regarding fatigue performance, compared to conventional steel grades. Clean steels are characterized by containing a very low level of non-metallic inclusions. READ MORE

  5. 4. Investigating Yttrium Ruthenate Pyrochlore as an Anodic Electrocatalyst in Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis

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

    Author : Kneev Sharma; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As the energy transition progresses, the demand for green storage solutions is ever-increasing. Hydrogen storage is receiving increased interest and support due to its promising sustainability and flexibility. Proton-exchange, or polymer electrolyte, membrane (PEM) electrolyzers are a key technology supporting hydrogen storage systems. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluation of the Weather Resistance of Ram-Air Kites Used in Airborne Wind Energy Systems

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Johanna Désirée Ambs; [2023]
    Keywords : Weathering Resistance; Coated Textiles; Ram-air Kite; Airborne Wind Energy;

    Abstract : Airborne Wind Energy is an emerging technology that harnesses the power of the wind by using tethered wings. Among the flying devices are ram-air wings made from coated textiles that utilize dynamic pressure to gain their shape. READ MORE
