  1. 1. Sustainable Production Patterns for Hydropower Units

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

    Author : Hannington Kayanja; [2023]
    Keywords : Automatic control; Hydropower modelling; PD-controller; Sustainable power production; Water level control.;

    Abstract : Globally, a significant portion of energy comes from hydropower. However, harnessing hydro energy interrupts the natural state of river flows, thus affecting the ecological processes of the surrounding communities. READ MORE

  3. 2. Waste Analysis on a Production Line - A Case Study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell Produktion

    Author : Sanna Treptow; Déspina Karida; [2023]
    Keywords : Sustainable manufacturing systems; Sustainable production; Lean production; Just in Time Production JiT ; Kanban; Waste; Environmental Value Stream Mapping EVSM ; Production Performance Matrix PPM ; Key Performance Index KPI ; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study aims to assist Swedish company Clemondo AB in reducing waste in production, where the goal is to determine where waste appears as well as make suggestions for potential improvements, which are presented as Key Performance Indices (KPIs) and minimized manufacturing costs. Citation chaining is used to retrieve extant literature, while other productions and process-related information are gathered through observations and discussions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Assessment of oyster mushroom production employing urban-based materials in Stockholm Stad

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Mio Fagerström; [2023]
    Keywords : Industrial symbiosis; residual waste streams; Pleurotus ostreatus; Oyster mushroom cultivation; Circular economy; Industriell symbios; restavfallsströmmar; Pleurotus Ostreatus; Ostronskivlings odling; cirkulär ekonomi;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the opportunities and challenges regarding urban oyster mushroomproduction (Pleurotus Ostreatus) employing urban-based materials in Stockholm Stad as agrowing medium. Additionally, the availability of the five most suitable substrates has beenfurther explored with the indicator’s availability in Stockholm Stad, and the Biologicalefficiency (BE%) for a suitable growing medium and the quantity of the substrates have beenmapped out.

  6. 5. Modelling Gas Flow Behaviour in Gas Atomizer

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Aravind Senan Vasanthasenan Reji; [2022]
    Keywords : Gas atomization; Nozzle; Velocity; Static pressure; Discrete phase model; Gasatomisering; Munstycke; Hastighet; Statiskt tryck; Diskret fasmodell;

    Abstract : Gas atomization is regarded as a reliable method for creating high-quality metal powders from molten metal. The liquid metal is fed into the chamber as a free-falling stream through a nozzle, where it is impinged by high-velocity gas jets, causing degeneration and production of metal droplets, which solidify to create metal powders.
