2. 1. CO2 separation using ionic liquid-based absorbents : thermodynamics and kinetics

   Author : Yifeng Chen; Xiaoyan Ji; Xiaohua Lu; Marcus Öhman; Congmin Wang; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ionic liquids; carbon dioxide; thermodynamics; kinetics; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

   Abstract : Ionic liquids (ILs) have shown great potential to be used as absorbents for CO2 separation owing to their unique properties such as immeasurably low vapour pressure, high thermal stability, high CO2 affinity, and tunable structure. A huge amount of researches have been carried out, and most of them focused on developing novel ILs for CO2 separation. READ MORE

4. 2. Densities and viscosities of slags : modeling and experimental investigations

   Author : Mikael Persson; Seshadri Seetharaman; Rob Brooks; KTH; []

   Abstract : The present dissertation describes part of the efforts directed towards the development of computational tools to support process modeling. This work is also a further development of the Thermoslag software developed in the Division of Materials Process Science, KTH. READ MORE

5. 3. Thermodynamic Investigation of Co-Cr Alloys

   Author : Thérèse Sterneland; KTH; []
   Keywords : Cobalt; chromium; experimental thermodynamics; solid state galvanic cell technique; differential scanning calorimetric technique DSC ; CALPHAD-technique; Thermo-Calc; phase diagram; experimental data;

   Abstract : In a collaborative effort between the Divison of Metallurgyand the Divison of Computational Thermodynamics, RoyalInstitute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden, experimentalinvestigations have been carried out in the binary Co-Crsystem. The experimental strategy has been to measure thethermodynamic activities of Cr by the solid oxide electrolytegalvanic cell technique, as well as to measure the molar heatcapacities of the alloys, as function of temperature, by theDSC technique.
