  5. 3. Towards a Sustainable Biomass and Waste Refinery Based on Pyrolysis Combined with a Pretreatment Process

    Author : Yuming Wen; Weihong Yang; Pär Jönsson; Tobias Richards; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; pyrolysis; anaerobic digestion; hydrothermal carbonization; refinery; biomass; waste; kinetics; LCA; Energiteknik; Energy Technology; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Some of the naturally accumulated biomass and the massive production of waste by human activities have caused serious environmental problems. The degradation of biomass and waste is one of the main greenhouse gasses (GHG) emission sources. READ MORE

  6. 4. Mobility Management and Climate Change Policies

    Author : Markus Robèrt; Folke Snickars; Tom Rye; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strategic Sustainable Development SSD ; Backcasting; Greenhouse gas emissions; Traffic planning; Company travel planning; Mobility Management; Civil engineering and architecture; Samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

    Abstract : Globally, the transport system faces a paradigmatic shift where, in addition to increased local traffic problems, climate change and depletion of fossil oil reserves will foster a successive transition to renewable fuels and a need for more resource-efficient mobility management and communication alternatives. Foresighted countries, cities or companies taking the lead in adapting to these tougher conditions might well not only solve those problems, but also turn the problems into business advantages.

    Abstract : The modern transportation system is largely based on fossil fuels. To reduce this reliance on oil and gas and thereby drastically reduce emissions, a transition to renewable power sources is necessary. Lithium-ion batteries are the most established candidate for electromobility applications, with suitable energy and power densities. READ MORE
