2. 1. CO2 separation using ionic liquid-based absorbents : thermodynamics and kinetics

   Author : Yifeng Chen; Xiaoyan Ji; Xiaohua Lu; Marcus Öhman; Congmin Wang; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ionic liquids; carbon dioxide; thermodynamics; kinetics; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

   Abstract : Ionic liquids (ILs) have shown great potential to be used as absorbents for CO2 separation owing to their unique properties such as immeasurably low vapour pressure, high thermal stability, high CO2 affinity, and tunable structure. A huge amount of researches have been carried out, and most of them focused on developing novel ILs for CO2 separation. READ MORE

   Abstract : Cemented carbides are metallic composites consisting of a WC hard phase and a ductile binder, usually Co-based, produced by powder metallurgy and sintering. Cemented carbides are an essential part of modern material and manufacturing processes. READ MORE

5. 3. Interaction Characteristics of Viral Protease Targets and Inhibitors : Perspectives for drug discovery and development of model systems

   Author : Cynthia F Shuman; Jordan J N Tang; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; viral proteases; biomolecular interactions; kinetics; thermodynamics; biosensors; drug discovery; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

   Abstract : Viral proteases are important targets for anti-viral drugs. Discovery of protease inhibitors as anti-viral drugs is aided by an understanding of the interactions between viral protease and inhibitors. This thesis addresses the characterization of protease-inhibitor interactions for application to drug discovery and model system development. READ MORE

6. 4. Defect Thermodynamics and Kinetics in Polyanionic Cathodes : A Theoretical Roadmap for Na-ion based Batteries and Hybrid Supercapacitors

   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DFT; Energy Materials; Defects; Chemical potentials; Kinetics; Hybrid supercapacitors; Na-ion batteries; Polyanionic cathodes;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the framework of the density functional theory is employed to study and predict properties of polyanionic cathodes for Na-ion batteries and hybrid supercapacitors. It consists of three main parts as follows:The first part is primarily dedicated to kröhnkite-type Na2Fe(SO4)22H2O cathode. READ MORE

7. 5. Investigations on the Oxidation of Iron-chromium and Iron-vanadium Molten Alloys

   Author : Haijuan Wang; Seshadri Seetharaman; Ashok Lahiri; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Oxidation; High-alloy steelmaking; Retention; CO2-O2; Fe-Cr melt; Fe-Cr-C melt; Fe-V melt; Vanadium containing slags; Kinetics; Thermodynamics properties.; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

   Abstract : With the progress of high alloy steelmaking processes, it is essential to minimize the loss of valuable metals, like chromium and vanadium during the decarburization process, from both economic as well as environmental view points. One unique technique to realize this aim, used in the present work, is the decarburization of high alloy steel grades using oxygen with CO2 in order to reduce the partial pressure of oxygen. READ MORE
