  2. 16. Characterisation of Fuels and Fly Ashes from Co-Combustion of Biofuels and Waste Fuels in a Fluidised Bed Boiler. A Phosphorus and Alkali Perspective

    Author : Anita Pettersson; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; phosphorus recovery; co-combustion; fluidised bed combustion; olivine; Biofuels; zeolites; fertiliser; extraction; refuse derived fuels; kaolin; alkali; sulphur; ash; municipal sewage sludge;

    Abstract : In the efforts to create sustainable production of heat and power and to reduce the net CO2 emissions to the atmosphere, alternative fuels are today being utilised. These fuels are, for example, biofuels and waste derived fuels such as different residues from the agricultural sector and the pulp and paper industry, municipal sewage sludge and municipal sorted solid waste.

  4. 17. Supply chain resilience through quality management

    Author : Roy Andersson; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; supply chain strategy; risk; robust; Six Sigma; quality; logistics; management; TQM; Lean; resilient; flexible; collaboration.; Agile;

    Abstract : The length and complexity of the supply chain tend to increase, rather than diminish, thereby making the supply chain riskier and less predictable and, hence, more vulnerable. At the same time, customers are becoming increasingly demanding. READ MORE

  5. 18. Pretreatment of cellulosic waste and high rate biogas production

    Author : Solmaz Aslanzadeh; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biogas; Two-stage anaerobic digestion; N-methylmorpholine N-oxide NMMO pretreatment; Lignocelluloses; Textile waste; Biofuels; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

    Abstract : The application of anaerobic digestion technology is growing worldwide, mainly because of its environmental benefits. Nevertheless, anaerobic degradation is a rather slow and sensitive process. One of the reasons is the recalcitrance nature of certain fractions of the substrate (e.g. READ MORE

  6. 19. Conjugated Polymer-based Conductive Fibers for Smart Textile Applications

    Author : Tariq Bashir; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electro-active fibers; poly 3; 4-ethylenedioxythiophene PEDOT ; viscose; polyester; chemical vapor deposition CVD process; electrical characterizations; smart textiles; stretch sensor; Organic Electronics; Smart Textiles; textile yarns; Textiles and Fashion General ; Textil och mode generell ;

    Abstract : Electrically conductive or electro-active fibers are the key components of smart and interactive textiles, which could be used in medical, sports, energy, and military applications in the near future. The functionalization of high-performance textile yarns/fibers with conjugated polymers can produce conductive fibers with better electro-mechanical properties, which is difficult with commonly used spinning techniques.

  7. 20. Computational Studies of Metal Clusters and Carbon Nanotubes

    Author : Anders Börjesson; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; carbon nanotube; metal clusters; nanotubesmetal junction; melting temperatures; nanotechnology; molecular dynamics; monte carlo; tight binding; atomistic simulations; Energi och material;

    Abstract : Carbon nanotubes constitute a promising candidate material in the realisation of nanoscaled electronics. This requires the ability for systematic production of carbon nanotubes with certain properties. This is called selective carbon nanotube growth. READ MORE
