1. 1. Negative Emission from Electric Arc Furnace using a Combination of Carbon capture and Bio-coal

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

   Author : Abhijith Namboodiri Kapothanillath; [2023]
   Keywords : EAF; Off-gas handling; CCS; Calcium Looping CaL ; Post-combustion; Waste heat recovery; Bio-coal; Negative emissions; Techno-economic analysis; EAF; Avgasrening; CCS; Calcium Looping CaL ; Efterförbränning; Återvinning av spillvärme; Biokol; Negativa utsläpp; Teknisk-ekonomisk analys;

   Abstract : Steel is one of the most essential metals in the world, and it plays a vital role in various industries. The growing demand for steel has resulted in increased CO2 emissions, with the steel industry contributing to approximately 7% of global emissions of carbon dioxide. READ MORE

3. 2. Techno-economic analysis of a waste-to-energy system using innovative pyrolysis process

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

   Author : Hannah Sofie Perrens; [2023]
   Keywords : Waste management; pyrolysis; heat and power generation; decentralized energy systems; waste-to-energy;

   Abstract : Waste management is of growing concern with increasing amount of municipal waste generation and the industry standards are becoming stricter due to climate goals and sustainable development. Waste-to-energy (WTE) systems in the form of waste incineration have been promoted as a low-carbon energy source, but nevertheless have high greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. READ MORE

4. 3. Biochar Production from Municipal Sewage Sludge via Pyrolysis - The Case of Gotland

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Lara-Patricia Brokmeier; [2022]
   Keywords : Biochar; Municipal Sewage Sludge; Pyrolysis; Carbon Sequestration; Heavy Metals; Gotland;

   Abstract : In order to keep global average temperature below 2°C it is necessary to accelerate climate change mitigation actions and reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. This can be achieved by carbon capture and storage methods such as the production of biochar. READ MORE

5. 4. CCS via Electrochemical CO2 Reduction to Ethylene-based Polymeric Construction Materials

   University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

   Author : Christian Taylor; [2021]
   Keywords : CCS; Electrochemical CO2 Reduction; CO2 to Ethylene; Power-to-X; Polymeric Construction Materials; Circular Carbon Economy; Electrolysis; CO2 electroreduction; CCS; Elektrokemisk CO2-reduktion; Koldioxid till Eten; Power-to-X; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Cirkulär kolekonomi; elektrolys; CO2-elektroreduktion;

   Abstract : IPCC SR15 rapporterade att alla framtida scenarier för att begränsa klimatförändringen till 1,5°C är starkt beroende av negativa utsläppstekniker, såsom geografisk CO2-lagring som används av Stockholm Exergi’s Värtaverket. Men kan man uppnå starkare klimatvinster genom en cirkulär koldioxidekonomi? Bildandet av en cirkulär koldioxidekonomi är absolut nödvändigt för att uppnå global koldioxidneutralitet, men hur kommer vi dit? Elektrolys av CO2 erbjuder en ekonomiskt och miljömässigt attraktiv väg för att uppgradera CO2-utsläpp till värdefulla bränslen och råvaror, vilket minskar användningen av fossila resurser och CO2-utsläpp till atmosfären.

6. 5. Investigation of carbon capture technologies for Sävenäs waste-to-energy plant

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

   Author : Jasmine Andersson; [2020]
   Keywords : CCS; flue gas treatment; waste incineration; energy balance; emission abatement;

   Abstract : Carbon capture technologies have the potential to decarbonize the emissions to air from the heat and power sector and contribute to the necessary greenhouse gas emission mitigation in order to meet the Paris Agreement requirements. The energy requirement and ability to retrofit carbon capture units are crucial to convert existing power plants into more environmental benign processes to meet the Swedish national goal of greenhouse gas neutrality at 2045.
