1. Alkali Release and Effects on Biomass Thermal Conversion Processes
Abstract : High alkali content is an important feature of biomass, and it has a series of implications for thermal conversion processes. This thesis focuses on the release of alkali during various biomass thermal conversion processes, including biomass pyrolysis, char gasification, co-conversion of different types of biomass, and thermal conversion of biomass mixed with fresh and used bed materials.

2. Proton pathways in energy conversion : K-pathway analogs in O2- and NO-reductases
Abstract : Oxygen and nitric oxide reductases are enzymes found in aerobic and anaerobic respiration, respectively. Both enzyme groups belong to the superfamily of Heme-Copper Oxidases, which is further divided into several subgroups: oxygen-reducing enzymes into A-, B- and C-type and nitric oxide reductases into qNORs and cNORs.

4. Micro-reaction Mechanism Study of the Biomass Thermal Conversion Process using Density Functional Theory
Abstract : Biomass, or bio-energy, is one of the most important alternative energies because of environmental concerns and the future shortage of fossil fuels. Multi-scaled bioenergy studies have been performed in the division of Energy and Furnace Technology, which included studies of macroscopic systems such as systems and reactors, modeling of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and atomic/molecular level studies.

5. Fundamental Insights into the Electrochemistry of Tin Oxide in Lithium-Ion Batteries
Abstract : This thesis aims to provide insight into the fundamental electrochemical processes taking place when cycling SnO2 in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Special attention was paid to the partial reversibility of the tin oxide conversion reaction and how to enhance its reversibility. READ MORE
