  1. 1. Particle Emissions from Ships

    Author : Maria Zetterdahl; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LNG; marine fuel; fuel sulphur content; particle emission; sulphur emission control area; aromatics; SECA; heavy fuel oil; marine diesel oil; liquefied natural gas; ship emission;

    Abstract : Since 1st of January 2015 ships operating in sulphur emission control areas (SECAs) have to use marine fuels with a fuel sulphur content less than 0.1 %m/m. This regulation forces the ship owners to make a fuel shift and use low-sulphur marine fuel oils, use alternative fuels or use scrubbers on-board their ships. READ MORE

  2. 2. High-Temperature Corrosion Chemistry in Oxy-Fuel Combustion

    Author : Thomas Ekvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Drastic cuts in global CO2 emissions are needed to mitigate the global warming if limiting global warming to 2ºC. The power generation sector is largely based on fossil fuels and produces a significant share of the global CO2 emissions. READ MORE

  3. 3. Remote Measurements of Ship Emissions

    Author : Niklas Berg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; airborne; Ship emissions; sulphur dioxide; nitrogen dioxide; DOAS; in situ measurements; carbon dioxide;

    Abstract : The combustion of sulphur-containing fossil fuels gives rise to emissions of sulphurdioxide. Nitrogen oxides are also emitted when fuels are burned. The InternationalMaritime Organization (IMO) has ratified regulations regarding Sulphur Fuel Content(SFC) and NOx emissions from the shipping sector. READ MORE

  4. 4. Chemical-Looping Combustion with Solid Fuels

    Author : Henrik Leion; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; petroleum coke; fluidized bed; oxygen carrier; ilmenite; volatiles; gasification; sulphur dioxide; coal; iron oxide; chemical looping combustion; CLC;

    Abstract : In order to meet the global demand of CO2 neutral energy production, chemical-looping combustion could play an important role. With this technique it is possible to capture CO2 without an excessive energy penalty. READ MORE

  5. 5. Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx: Deactivation and Regeneration Studies and Kinetic Modelling of Deactivation

    Author : Raziyeh Khodayari; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical technology and engineering; modelling; sulphation; regeneration; deactivation; bio fuel; WO3; V2O5; TiO2; catalyst; NOx; SCR; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Chemistry; Kemi;

    Abstract : Selective catalytic reduction of NOx (SCR) has been recognised as an effective post-combustion method for reducing nitrogen oxides from stationary sources. The cost of replacing the catalyst is a major part of the maintenance of the SCR system, hence it is desirable to advance methods to prolong the catalyst life. READ MORE
