1. 6. Mitigation of supply chain uncertainties caused by material shortage : A case study with Loccioni

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och industriell teknik

   Author : Juliane Wloch; [2023]
   Keywords : Supply chain risk management; supply disruption management; semiconductor shortage; Small- and Medium-sized Enterprises;

   Abstract : The ongoing semiconductor shortage impacts organizations throughout the supply chain operationally and financially. Limited material for a sudden increase in demand during the Covid-19 pandemic led to a heightened supplier power and result in the prioritization of customers. READ MORE

3. 7. Biobased iron pellet production : Assessment of the availability and sustainability of biomass as fuel for iron ore pellet production in LKAB

   University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, design och hållbar utveckling (2023-)

   Author : Magnus Kemi; [2023]
   Keywords : bio-energy; biomass; coal; greenhouse gas emissions; industrial residues; LCA; LKAB; logging residues; iron ore; pellets; sinters; willow; sustainability;

   Abstract : Iron production accounts for substantial shares of global coal use and GHG emissions. LKAB is Europe’s largest iron company and Sweden’s fourth-largest emitter of GHGs. To reduce its emissions, LKAB might implement biomass in iron ore pelletisation. READ MORE

4. 8. Comparative Analysis of On-site vs Off-site green-Hydrogen Value Chain Scenarios to cover projected Aviation demand : A case for Toulouse Blagnac Airport in France

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

   Author : Stathis Alexandrou; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydrogen Production; Value Chain Analysis; Levelized Cost of Hydrogen Production LCOH ; Hydrogen for Aviation; France; Toulouse Airport; Analys av vätgasens värdekedja; kostnader för vätgasens försörjningskedja; LCOH; flytande vätgas; vätgas för luftfarten; Frankrike; Toulouse Airport; ;

   Abstract : Amidst the efforts to mitigate the energy-related carbon emissions of human activities and pursuing a net-zero future by 2050, the aviation sector, as part of a wider group of hard-to-decarbonize sectors is responsible for 12% of all the transportation emissions globally. Green Hydrogen as a zero-emissions alternative fuel from water and renewable energy serves as a prime candidate to replace conventional aviation fuels and lead the way towards carbon-free flights.
