  1. 1. Electrochemical Investigation of the Reaction Mechanism in Lithium-Oxygen Batteries

    Author : Jonas Lindberg; Göran Lindbergh; Ann M. Cornell; Bryan McCloskey; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lithium-Oxygen Batteries; Lithium Mass Transport; Oxygen Solubility; Reaction Rate Law; Reaction Mechanism; Electrode Passivation; Ultramicroelectrodes; Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance; EQCM; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Lithium-oxygen batteries, also known as Lithium-air batteries, could possibly revolutionize energy storage as we know. By letting lithium react with ambient oxygen gas very large theoretical energy densities are possible. READ MORE

  2. 2. Reaction to fire performance of wood and other building products

    Author : Lazaros Tsantaridis; KTH; []
    Keywords : building products; charring of wood; cone calorimeter; fire retardant treated wood; fire tests; ignitability; mass loss; rate of heat release;

    Abstract : The theme of this thesis is the reaction to fire performanceof wood and other building products, andparticularly thematerial fire properties time to ignition, rate of heat releaseand smoke production. These properties have been measured by asmall-scale fire test method, the Cone Calorimeter, andpresented for different types of building products. READ MORE

  3. 3. Hydrodynamic control of retention in heterogeneous aquifers and fractured rock

    Author : Hua Cheng; Vladimir Cvetkovic; Chin-Fu Tsang; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aquifer; Fracture; groundwater; First-order solution; Monte-Carlo simulation; Nu-clear waste; Heterogeneity; Retention processes; Matrix diffusion; Prediction; Evaluation; Travel time; Flow rate; ; Water engineering; Vattenteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, fluid flow and solute transport in heterogeneous aquifers and particularly in frac-tured rock have been investigated using Lagrangian Stochastic Advective-Reaction (LaSAR) framework. The heterogeneity of the aquifer structure or fracture configuration, as well as the various reaction/retention processes have been considered in the modelling approach. READ MORE

  4. 4. Understanding the Structure and Reaction of Single Molecules on Metal surfaces from First Principles

    Author : Qiang Fu; Yi Luo; Mats Persson; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical chemistry; Teoretisk kemi;

    Abstract : The study of surface adsorption and reaction is not only interesting from a scientific point of view, but also important in many application fields such as energy, environment, catalysis, corrosion, electronic device, and sensor. Theoretical calculations are essential in these studies. READ MORE

  5. 5. Modelling Chemical Weathering in Different Scales

    Author : Johan Holmqvist; Kemiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biochemical technology; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Chemical technology and engineering; Sustainable biomass production; Kriging; Illite; Epidote; Chemical weathering; Dissolution; Biokemisk teknik; Silviculture; forestry; forestry technology; Skogsvetenskap; skogsbruk; skogsteknik;

    Abstract : Chemical weathering is one of the most important processes supporting life on Earth. Chemical weathering continuously contributes macronutrients and micronutrients to the soil solution. These recycling, essential elements are used as building blocks for all organic living matter.
