  2. 1. Partial CO2 capture to facilitate cost-efficient deployment of carbon capture and storage in process industries - Deliberations on process design, heat integration, and carbon allocation

    Author : Max Biermann; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; carbon allocation; Partial CO2 capture; process industry; techno-economic assessment; CCS; heat recovery; amine absorption;

    Abstract : Climate change requires that all energy-related sectors reduce drastically their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, at a global rate of 1–2 GtCO2 per year, starting now. Process industries, such as the iron and steel, cement, petrochemical, and oil-refining industries, are inherently carbon-intensive, and carbon capture and storage (CCS) is one of the few options available to achieve the required deep reductions in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

  6. 4. Bacterial adaption to novel selection pressures

    Author : Annika Nilsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Evolution; bacterial adaptation; mutation rate; population size; mutation accumulation; fitness; antibiotic resistance; compensation; genetic drift; genome reduction;

    Abstract : The rates and trajectories of bacterial evolution are determined both by microbial factors and environmental parameters. In this thesis 1 have investigated how bacterial mutation rates and selection pressure affect the rate and extent of adaptation to novel environments. READ MORE
