  3. 2. Modelling the chemical recycling of plastic waste via pyrolysis and analysing integration with existing refinery infrastructure

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Simon Dahl; [2023]
    Keywords : Pyrolysis; Recycling; Integration; Modelling; Simulation; Techno-economic; Plastic; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Current plastic management is unsustainable as large amounts of plastic end up landfilled or in the ocean, necessitating an expansion of waste management infrastructure. Pyrolysis is a viable chemical recycling option, and in this report a pyrolysis model is constructed in Aspen Plus. READ MORE

  4. 3. Formulation and characterisation of novel edible-packaging for fruits and vegetables

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Lola Sutton; Katerina Papa; [2023]
    Keywords : algae; edible packaging; carrageenan; cucumber; REL; oxidative stress; antioxidants; food engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master's thesis investigated the potential of algae raw materials, specifically k-carrageenan and to a lesser extent alginate, as film-forming ingredients for the development of a novel edible packaging solutions. The project involved the testing and characterisation of several active ingredients of algal and plant origins both as extracts and as ingredients in films. READ MORE

  5. 4. Multi-camera system for close-up supervision in test-fixtures using openCV and optics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Henrik Liljefors; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The test-fixture is a device used for testing of electronic circuits in production, that is produced by the Lund based company mikrodust AB. In the test-fixture, cameras are both used for supervision of products-in-testing and in the products themselves. READ MORE

  6. 5. Developing a High-Voltage Mechanical Disconnector: Meeting Safety Standards

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Hampus Carlqvist; [2023]
