  1. 6. Climate impact of bioH2 production from biogas using CO2 mineralization for carbon capture and storage

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Energy and Technology

    Author : Hera Harðardóttir; [2022]
    Keywords : carbon capture and storage; carbon dioxide mineralization; biohydrogen production; global warming potential; greenhouse gases;

    Abstract : Carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations in the atmosphere are increasing and are now higher than they have ever been, mostly because of CO2 released from burning fossil fuels for energy. Global energy demand will continue to rise in the future, resulting in increased carbon emissions. READ MORE

  3. 7. Development of a Nordic BWR plant model in APROS and design of a power controller using the control rods

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Jonathan Al-Ani; [2021]
    Keywords : APROS; Dynamic process simulation; System code; Nuclear reactor; nuclear power; BWR; Boiling Water Reactor; closed cycle; steam cycle; one-dimensional flow; Westinghouse; control rods; APROS; Dynamisk processimulering; Beräkningsmodell; Kärnkraft; BWR; Kokvattenreaktor; ångcykel; en-dimensionell flödesmodell; Westinghouse; kontrollstavar;

    Abstract : In this master thesis an input-model of a Nordic BWR power plant has been developed in APROS. The plant model contains key systems and major thermohydraulic components of the steam cycle, including I&C systems (i.e. power, pressure, level and flow controls). READ MORE

  4. 8. Coupling of Nuclear Power Generation with Greenhouse Gas Capture Technology

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Sofia Bellgren; Isabel Sondén; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In order to stop the escalating global warming, humankind rapidly needs to develop and implement technology to lower the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Today there are methods to capture CO2 directly from the atmosphere (DAC); the problem lies in how to power them in a fossil-free and cost-attractive way. READ MORE

  5. 9. Carnot Batteries as a Power-to-X-to-Power Alternative : A Study on Optimization of Thermal Energy Storage Usage

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

    Author : ERIK FORSMAN; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The implementation of renewable energy sources continues the rise throughout the world as a means to combat the threats of climate change. This does however bring with it problems within the power sector. READ MORE

  6. 10. Climate impact of hydrogen as fuel for the heavy road transportation : A time-dependent life cycle methodology based assessment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Energy and Technology

    Author : Madeleine Stolpe; [2021]
    Keywords : hydrogen production; steam methane reforming; carbon capture and storage; waterelectrolysis; heavy trucks;

    Abstract : Currently, the transportation sector stands for one third of all greenhouse gas emissions in Sweden. Hydrogen (H2) could contribute to a decarbonized transportation sector since water is the only direct emission from a fuel cell electric vehicle. READ MORE
