1. 1. Microbial production of chemical building blocks from lignin

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

   Author : Kevin Bertilsson; [2024]
   Keywords : Lignin; Green plastic; Vanillin; Microbial production; Applied microbiology; Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : Plastics, derived from fossil fuels, have raised considerable environmental concerns. This has prompted the search for sustainable and safer plastic precursors alternatives. One alternative explored in the present study is vanillin, a phenolic compound derived from lignin, an abundant and renewable natural polymer. READ MORE

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
