  2. 1. On the Selection of Methods and Tools for Analysis of Heat and Power Plants

    Author : Pernilla Olausson; Kraftverksteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik; Thermal engineering; neural networks; LCA; environment; thermoeconomy; exergy; economics; Methods and tools; energy analysis;

    Abstract : The business climate of the energy market has been eventful over the last two decades, particularly with the introduction of the deregulated electricity market and promotion of environmental issues. This has subsequently lead to new analysis criteria, influencing both technology requirements and production costs. READ MORE

  4. 2. Approaches to energy efficient building development : studying under Chinese contexts

    Author : Zhenhong Gu; Ronald Wennersten; Per Heiselberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy efficiency; China; Passive House; Low Exergy system; Built Environmental Assessment; LCA; Swedish housing; Hammarby Sjöstad; Eco-village; Game theory; System theory; Soft Systems Methodology; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a general description of approaches to energy efficient building development under Chinese contexts. The purpose of the work is to discuss how Chinese building development can be approved from an energy saving perspective. Building development is a complicated process that relates to many stakeholders’ interests. READ MORE

  6. 4. ELM: Environmental Assessment of Fuel Supply Systems for Vehicle Fleets

    Author : Magnus Blinge; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; exergy; biomass; alternative motor fuel; wnvironment; transportation; renewable; energy; Life Cycle Assessment; logistics; emission;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on the idea of applying a logistics approach to fuel supply systems. The complete supply chain from energy raw material to end use in the vehicle is analysed while keeping track of energy conversion efficiency, exergy consumption and emissions to air. READ MORE

  7. 5. On the possibilities of life-cycle assessment : development of methodology and review of case studies

    Author : Göran Finnveden; Helias Udo de Haes; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Natural Resources Management; naturresurshushållning;

    Abstract : Life-cycle assessment (LCA) studies the environmental aspects and potential impacts throughout a product's life from raw material acquisition, through production, use and disposal.Different aspects and limitations of LCA methodology are discussed. New methods for describing landfilling and incineration of solid waste in LCAs are suggested. READ MORE
