1. 1. Assessment of the integration of solar heat power into food drying processes

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Charalampos Psilopoulos; [2023]
   Keywords : Sustainable; sustainability; co2 reduction; feasibility; solar thermal; direct steam generation; drying; food industry; scope 1 emissions; sdg; sustainable development goals; spray drying; drum drying; powder; food; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The long-lasting usage of fossil fuels has brought its negative impact on the planet and thus the society is turning towards more environmentally sustainable solutions in every aspect of life. This master’s thesis discusses the novel topic of integrating concentrated solar thermal collectors, which directly produce steam, to drying processes in the food industry, which is proven to currently emit significant amounts of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs).

3. 2. Modelling of organic data centers

   University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

   Author : Mimmi Sandström; [2020]
   Keywords : organic data center; waste heat recovery; free cooling; next generation data center; greenhouse; ekologisk datorhall; återvinning av spillvärme; fri kyla; nästa generation datorhall; växthus;

   Abstract : I det här examensarbetet undersöks möjligheten att återvinna termisk energi genom att driva en så kallad ekologisk datorhall. Denna uppstår genom en integration mellan en storskalig högpresterande datorhall och ett växthus. READ MORE

4. 3. Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Brayton Cycle for Power Generation : Utilizing Waste Heat in EU Industries

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

   Author : BJÖRN J. THORSSON; HADY R. SOLIMAN; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The industrial sector accounts for approximately 30% of the global total energy consumption and up to 50% of it is lost as waste heat. Recovering that waste heat from industries and utilizing it as an energy source is a sustainable way of generating electricity. READ MORE

5. 4. Practical implementation of Bio-CCS in Uppsala : A techno-economic assessment

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Robert Djurberg; [2020]
   Keywords : BECCS; Bio-CCS; CCS; techno-economic assessment; BECCS; Bio-CCS; CCS; teknoekonomisk analys;

   Abstract : To decrease global warming, bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (Bio-CCS) has been proposed as an effective and necessary tool. Combusting biomass and capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the same process results in net negative emissions, hence, reducing the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. READ MORE

6. 5. Techno-Economic Analysis of Organic Rankine Cycles for a Boiler Station : Energy system modeling and simulation optimization

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

   Author : Jamel Hudson; [2019]
   Keywords : Organic Rankine cycle; ORC; Working fluids; Boiler station; District heating system; Simulation model;

   Abstract : The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) may be the superior cycle for power generation using low temperature and low power heat sources due to the utilization of high molecular mass fluids with low boiling points. They are flexible, simple, easy to operate and maintain, and offer many possible areas of applications including waste heat recovery and power generation from biomass, geothermal and even solar energy.
