  1. 16. Semiconductor-ionic Materials for Low Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

    Author : Muhammad Afzal; Andrew R. Martin; Peter Lund; Hab. Armelle Ringuede; KTH; []
    Keywords : Semiconductor-ionic materials; electrolyte-layer free fuel cell; low temperature solid oxide fuel cell; fuel to electricity conversion; Schottky junction; theoretical and experimental curves; Halvledar-joniska material; elektrolytskikt-fri bränslecell; lågtemperatur fastoxidbränslecell; bränsle till elomvandling; Schottky junction; teoretiska och experimentella kurvor; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is considered as an attractive candidate for energy conversion within the fuel cell (FC) family due to several advantages including environment friendly, use of non-noble materials and fuel flexibility. However, due to high working temperatures, conventional SOFC faces many challenges relating to high operational and capital costs besides the limited selection of the FC materials and their compatibility issues.

  2. 17. Smart Energy Grids – Utilization of Space Heating Flexibility

    Author : Johan Kensby; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; demand side management; heat pump; thermal energy storage; exhaust air heat pump; thermal storage in buildings; heat price control; smart; District heating; heat source shifting; demand response;

    Abstract : Buildings are the largest energy-using sector in the world. Since the generation of energy is highly associated with greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to climate change, there is a large focus on reducing energy use in buildings. READ MORE

  3. 18. Mixing of Large Solids in Fluidized Beds

    Author : Anna Köhler; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fuel mixing; fluidized beds; magnetic particle tracking; drag; semiempirical modelling; fluid-dynamic downscaling;

    Abstract : Fluidization is a technology that is widely used in systems in which particulate solids are to be transported, mixed, and/or reacted with gases. In fluidized bed applications, the lateral mixing rate of the solids and the heat and mass transfer with their surroundings play important roles in process performance. READ MORE

  4. 19. Fluidized bed combustion and gasification for phosphorus recovery by co-conversion of sewage sludge with biomass

    Author : Thomas Karl Hannl; Marcus Öhman; Matthias Kuba; Nils Skoglund; Mikko Hupa; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Combustion; gasification; sewage sludge; agricultural residues; fluidized bed; ash chemistry; bed material; phosphorus; fuel design; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : In recent years, the thermal conversion of sewage sludge has proven its applicability for managing this inevitably generated waste. The viability arises from the concomitant features of recovering energy or valuable compounds, the breakdown of potentially harmful organic compounds, the separation or immobilization of heavy metals, and the formation of volume-reduced, sanitized residues.
