   Author : Jonatan Magnusson; Pettersson Eric; [2023]
   Keywords : Electrification; Agriculture; Electrified implements; 48 V; Agricultural electrification; Electromechanics; Mechatronics; Mechanical Engineering; Product development; Case study;

   Abstract : As the world seeks to become less reliant on fossil fuels and use more electric energy instead new possibilities for development of agricultural implements opens. Major tractor manufacturers have recently announced tractors with over tenfold increases in electrical power. READ MORE

3. 17. The environmental benefits of relocating buildings

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för bygg- och miljöteknologi; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

   Author : Harald Lidström; Anders Söderström; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : As the climate on earth deteriorates, actions are carried out within Europe to limit the amount of hazardous emissions to lower the environmental consequences due to greenhouse gases. A significant proportion of the emissions can be linked to the construction sector and its use of virgin resources. READ MORE

4. 18. Heat recovery from vacuum brazing furnaces

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Installations- och klimatiseringslära

   Author : Oliver Robertsson; Rasmus Wikman; [2023]
   Keywords : Waste heat; Vacuum furnace; Heat recovery; HVAC; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : By partly replacing the use of primary energy sources with waste heat recovery, climate and environmental goals for the future will be closer at hand. This thesis investigates the waste heat potential of Alfa Laval's vacuum brazing furnaces in Ronneby and alternative ways of integrating the furnace's waste heat into the building's HVAC system.

5. 19. Feasibility study of evaporative cooling and toilet flushing using rainwater in a public building

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

   Author : Claudia Reig Moril; [2023]
   Keywords : Rainwater; Evaporative cooling; Toilet flushing; Energy; Water; Feasibility.; Regnvatten; Evaporativ kyla; Toalettspolning; Energi; Vatten; Genomförbarhet.;

   Abstract : The project "Feasibility of evaporative cooling and toilet flushing using rainwater in a public building" combines rainwater harvesting with the evaporative cooling technology and toilet flushing and explores the practicality and viability of implementing this innovative system in the city of Gothenburg, Sweden. This study comprehensively investigates various aspects related to water and energy, and the entire system is computationally modelled using the Equation Engineering Solver (EES) software. READ MORE

6. 20. Bluegreengrey (BGG) solution for future climate and flood-resilient urban drainage network by enhancing the natural hydrological cycle

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Adnan Asif Rifat; [2023]
   Keywords : Bluegreengrey; Sustainable stormwater; Basement flooding; Urban flooding; Pipe Network; BGG; Climate change; Hydrology; Mike .; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A loop of urbanization, increasing impervious surface in urban areas, increasing temperature, rainfall, surface runoff and flooding, and lack of new spaces have been adding challenges to urban drainage systems for decades. The climate change impacts are exposing the existing vulnerable conventional urban drainage systems to more challenges in the future. READ MORE
