4. 8. Evaluation of the potential for co-gasification of black liquor and biofuel by-products : An experimental study of mixing and char reactivity

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

   Author : Gustav Häggström; [2015]
   Keywords : gasification; co-gasification; black liquor; crude glycerol; fermentation residue; förgasning; samförgasning; svartlut; råglycerol; fermentationsrest;

   Abstract : The increased use of fossil fuels during the last centuries has caused elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. There is significant evidence that this is the cause of global warming. To mitigate the global warming, measures has to be taken to use renewable fuels and make processes more efficient. READ MORE

5. 9. Impact of Using Macroalgae from the Baltic Sea in Biogas Production : A Review with Special Emphasis on Heavy Metals

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, NV

   Author : Kristofer Bergström; [2012]
   Keywords : biogas; macroalgae; heavymetals; Trelleborg;

   Abstract : A consequence of eutrophication in the Baltic Sea is growth of algae that accumulates in the coastal areas and beaches. Dense algal mats may cause anoxia or hypoxia and greatly reduce the recreational value of the area. Algae also functions as hyper accumulators of heavy metals and their metal levels may become toxic to higher trophic levels. READ MORE

6. 10. Illustrative scenarios of biofuel policiesfor transport sector in a developingcountry; A case study of Zambia

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Moono Jambo; [2012]
   Keywords : Biofuel; bioethanol; biodiesel; environment; sustainability;

   Abstract : The increasing demand for transportion fuels has led most countries around the world to look for alternatives to the predominant fossil fuels in the sector. Furthermore, the needs for security of energy supply, social – economic and sustainable development are among the factors driving the search for alternative fuels with regard to the fact that most oil producing countries are politically unstable.
