  1. 41. Chemical Modification of Nanostructured Wood for Functional Biocomposites

    Author : Shennan Wang; Qi Zhou; Gustav Nyström; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood; nanostructured materials; nanocellulose; delignification; oxidation; crosslinking; amination; MOFs; transparent film; hydrogel; aerogel; biocomposites; mechanical properties; thermochromic materials; CO2 capture; protein immobilization.; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : Recently emerged top-down processing concept has provided new insights into the chemical modification of wood at the nanoscale. Nanostructured wood with naturally aligned cellulose microfibrils, cell wall nanoporosity, and precisely tuned chemical composition has opened up numerous possibilities for advanced design of functional materials.

  2. 42. Design and Optimization of CO2 sorbents for Point Source Emissions and Direct Air Capture

    Author : Ribooga Chang; Ocean Cheung; Jean-Francois Boily; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CCS; CO2 Sorbents; Direct Air Capture;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a comprehensive study on the design and optimization of CO2 sorbents, targeting two distinct applications: CO2 capture from point source emissions and Direct Air Capture (DAC). The research first introduces Na2HfO3 as a potential CO2 sorbent for point source emissions, using the molten salt effects of Na2CO3 and the thermal stability of HfO2. READ MORE

    Abstract : The main objective of this thesis is to investigate two different concepts for CO2 mitigation, from a system perspective, in relation to the oil refining industry: CO2 capture and storage; and algae-based biofuels. For all these processes, process integration with an oil refinery is assumed. READ MORE

  4. 44. Development of nitrogen-containing materials for capture and catalytic conversion of carbon dioxide to value-added chemicals

    Author : Thai Q. Bui; Jyri-Pekka Mikkola; Knut Irgum; William Siljebo; Riitta Keiski; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CCUS; PEHA; DBU; mesoporous melamine-formaldehyde; DMC; cyclic carbonate; flow reactor; Physical Chemistry; fysikalisk kemi; sustainable development; hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions have become a critical environmental issue because a large amount of CO2 releasing into the atmosphere, particularly from the massive use of fossil fuels, is the major factor promoting the global warming and climate change. To mitigate the CO2 emissions, Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) can be one of important solutions. READ MORE

  5. 45. Modeling of post-combustion carbon capture in power plants and process industries - partial capture and load following conditions

    Author : Stefanìa Òsk Gardarsdòttir; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Post-combustion; MEA; ammonia; dynamic modelling; chemical absorption; industrial sources;

    Abstract : Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is recognized as a potent technology for the mitigation of global warming, since it can significantly reduce CO2 emission from large point source emitters. Post-combustion CO2 capture using chemical absorption is a versatile end-of-pipe technology that can be implemented at all point sources of CO2, such as a power production facility or industrial plant.
