1. Origin of volcanic sulfur in Iceland : a sulfur isotope study
Abstract : The chemistry and sulfur isotope composition have been determined in fresh and altered rocks and geothermal fluids in Iceland. Sulfur isotope ratios were analysed in 27 selected volcanic rocks, eight lava incrustations and three volcanic gas samples.The 63% of the basalts ranges from -2.0 o/oo to + 0. READ MORE

2. High Temperature Corrosion Behavior in Biomass- and Waste-Fired Boilers - Insights into catastrophic corrosion and corrosion mitigation techniques
Abstract : Carbon dioxide is contributing to the greenhouse effect and a significant part comes from the use of fossil fuels. Utilizing more renewable fuels is therefore a solution to decrease the net release of CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. READ MORE

3. The Corrosive Effect of Chlorine Containing Species on Waterwalls and Superheater Materials in Waste and Biomass-Fired Power Plants
Abstract : To increase power generation from waste- and biomass-fired boilers, it is necessary to increase the temperature and pressure of the steam generated. This implies an increase in the temperature both of the waterwalls and of the steam superheaters in the boiler. READ MORE

4. Release to the Gas Phase of Potassium, Chlorine, and Sulfur from Biomass Fuels under Dual Fluidized Bed Gasification Conditions
Abstract : The transformation and release of ash-forming elements during the thermal conversion of biomass are conducive to ash-related problems, for example, agglomeration of the bed material in fluidized beds. The occurrence and severity of ash-related problems largely depend on the extents to which potassium (K), chlorine (Cl), and sulfur (S) are released from biomass fuels to the gas phase during thermal conversion processes.

5. An Experimental Study of Fischer-Tropsch Fuels in a Diesel Engine
Abstract : Alternative fuels for Diesel engines include ester-based fuels (derived from sources such as rapeseed, soybeans and palm oil), dimethyl ether, and various synthetic fuels. Use of these fuels could contribute to a cleaner environment, reduce global warming and improve the human health by reducing levels of harmful emissions. READ MORE
