1. From torrefaction to gasification : Pilot scale studies for upgrading of biomass
Abstract : Increasing the share of biomass, preferably by replacing fossil fuels, is one way to mitigate the present climate change. Fossil coal can be directly replaced by co-combustion of coal and biomass and fossil engine fuels (gasoline and diesel) could potentially partly be replaced by synthetic renewable fuels produced via entrained flow gasification of biomass.

2. Alkali-enhanced gasification of biomass : laboratory-scale experimental studies
Abstract : Gasification seeks to break carbonaceous materials into synthetic gas (CO+H2) which can be subsequently upgraded into valuable products. Thus gasification can be utilized to convert low grade biomass stocks into carbon-neutral chemicals heat and power. READ MORE

3. Advanced Optical Diagnostics in Particle Combustion for Biomass and Metal as Alternative Fuels
Abstract : The energy sector is in urgent need for carbon-free strategies considering environmental pollutions and climate change impact. Two kinds of solid fuels, biomass and metal particles have been studied in this thesis aiming at CO2 emission reduction or zero carbon emission. READ MORE

4. Structural and solid state EMF studies of phases in the CaO–K2O–P2O5 system with relevance for biomass combustion
Abstract : Fosfaters reaktioner i energiomvandlingsprocesser är kritisk för den generella processen som helhet, för askrelaterade problem, emissioner liksom för en effektiv och hållbar användning av askan.Denna avhandling är en sammanställning och diskussion med utgångspunkt i åtta artiklar som behandlar strukturella och termodynamiska studier på faser i CaO-K2O-P2O5-systemet, vilka är av relevans inom förbränning av biomassa.

5. Entrained flow studies on biomass fuel powder conversion and ash formation
Abstract : Reducing the global dependence on fossil fuels is of paramount importance in tackling the environmental challenges we face, not only tomorrow, but already today. Biomass offers a renewable supply of CO2-neutral raw material that can be converted into many different forms of fuels and valuable chemicals, making it a prime candidate for the technologies of tomorrow.
