  1. 11. Observing phase changes in real time on ultrathin Iron oxide surfaces

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

    Author : Harald Wallander; [2019]
    Keywords : CO oxidation; platinum; iron oxides; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Studying catalysts under such non-equilibrium conditions is a step towards approaching more realistic reaction conditions for working catalysts. Reactivity during phase changes of ultra-thin FeO2 films grown on Pt(111) are studied in situ with Ambient Pressure X-ray Photo Emission Spectroscopy and Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry, while running the CO oxidation reaction at 160°C and 0:6 mbar.

  3. 12. The phase-out of crop-based biofuels in EU by 2030 : analyzing the effects on the palm oil market and

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Economics

    Author : Sanae Sone Dy; [2019]
    Keywords : biofuel; palm oil; international trade; partial equilibrium; RED; REDII; ILUC; CO2 emisssions; carbon dioxide; biobränsle; palmolja; internationell handel; partiell jämviktsmodell; CO2 utsläpp; koldioxid;

    Abstract : When EU introduced the Renewable Energy Directive (RED) in 2009, one of the goals where that by 2020 every EU country should have 10% of their transportation running on biofuels. This made the market for biofuel rise and therefore also the exports of palm oil to the EU. READ MORE

  4. 13. A struggle between reality and reliability: The uncertainties of including indirect land use change in life-cycle assessments

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

    Author : Nathalie Hjulström; [2019]
    Keywords : Indirect land use change; life-cycle assessment; biofuel; bio-based plastics; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Serious questions have been raised about the environmental impacts of biofuels concerning indirect land use change (ILUC) and this concept may also be applied to other products such as bio-based plastics. The purpose of this study is to identify the uncertainties of including ILUC in life-cycle assessments. READ MORE

  5. 14. Pension Reform with Employment during Retirement Simulation Analysis of a Life Cycle Model for Germany

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : Jonas Nauerz; [2018]
    Keywords : Life cycle; Social Security; Retirement; Pension Ref;

    Abstract : In many countries, the ratio of pension entitlement to earnings is declining due to demographic developments. In 2017, the German government introduced a pension reform which allows workers to accumulate more pension capital through continued employment during retirement. READ MORE
