    Abstract : The effects of greenhouse gas net emissions on global warming, stricter legislation on waste handling, and the pursuit of ever cheaper heat- and power production are all important factors driving the introduction of complex fuels in incineration plants. However - without fundamental knowledge regarding ash transformation, corrosion control, and materials selection – this introduction of potentially economically and environmentally beneficial fuels, might instead cause economic loss and environmentally adverse effects.

  2. 2. Powder degradation during powder bed fusion processing

    Author : Ahmad Raza; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Laser-based powder bed fusion; Alloy 718; Powder degradation; Oxidation; Electron beam powder bed fusion; Additive manufacturing; AlSi10Mg; Residual oxygen; Spatter particles; Sublimation.;

    Abstract : Powder bed fusion (PBF) techniques, including laser-based powder bed fusion (LB-PBF) and electron beam powder bed fusion (EB-PBF), are two rapidly growing additive manufacturing (AM) processes due to their ability to produce complex geometries in near-net shapes. To attain reproducibility and repeatability in PBF processes, a consistent set of powder properties is vital. READ MORE

  3. 3. Powder degradation during powder bed fusion processing: impact of processing conditions and alloy composition

    Abstract : In the recent decade, powder bed fusion (PBF) metal additive manufacturing (AM) has attracted huge attention both from the industry and the research community. This effort has helped mature PBF technology as a potential alternative to conventional manufacturing processes as casting, machining, forging, etc. READ MORE

  4. 4. ELECTRON BEAM MELTING OF ALLOY 718 - POWDER RECYCLING AND ITS EFFECT ON DEFECT FORMATION

    Author : Hans Gruber; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Abstract : As for any production process, the performance of additively manufactured components is ultimately dependent on the quality of the feedstock material. Consequently, for critical components, the feedstock needs to be carefully controlled to assure a stable and reliable quality. READ MORE
