  2. 6. Deactivation mechanisms influencing the performance and durability of exhaust aftertreatment systems

    Author : Jesus De Abreu Goes; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thermal degradation; Gasoline particulate filters; Lean NOx traps; Sulfur poisoning.;

    Abstract : As countermeasure to air pollution and global warming, more stringent environmental policy measures will probably come into force with the future emission standards, which will require important developments for gasoline and diesel vehicles to meet the emerging criteria. Efficient catalytic formulations and advanced strategies for exhaust aftertreatment systems will be therefore demanded to provide both high catalytic activity and stability, minimizing the environmental impact by automobiles.

  4. 7. Mechanisms of adhesive mixing for drug particle inhalation (Numerical investigation of the interplay between formulation variables)

    Author : Mohammadreza Tamadondar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Discrete Element Method; Agglomerate; Carrier Particle; Adhesive mixing; Dispersion; DPI-formulation;

    Abstract : Formulation of therapeutic dry powders for lung drug delivery via inhalation is done via adhesive mixing. In this process, micron-sized active pharmaceutical ingredient particles are blended with relatively coarse carrier particles until stable adhesive units of carrier and drug particles are formed.

  5. 8. Experimental and kinetic studies of H2 effect on lean exhaust aftertreatment processes: HC-SCR and DOC

    Author : Muhammad Mufti Azis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HC-SCR; NO oxidation.; Hydrogen effect; NOx reduction; Kinetic modeling; Silver Alumina; DOC; Platinum Alumina;

    Abstract : With a growing concern to lower greenhouse gas emissions from road transportation, lean burn and diesel engines will keep playing an important role in the future. Development of a highly efficient and durable process to reduce NOx to N2 becomes a challenging issue especially in the presence of ample O2 concentration as in lean burn exhaust. READ MORE

  6. 9. Risk assessment of chemical mixtures in the aquatic environment

    Author : Mikael Gustavsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemical mixtures; Risk assessment; Pesticides; Industrial chemicals; REACH; Chemical monitoring;

    Abstract : The total chemical production within the European Union amounts to more than 300 million tonnes per year, of which 140 million tonnes are considered as hazardous to the environment. In order to ensure that these chemicals do not have harmful effects under normal use, likely environmental concentrations are compared to assumed environmentally safe concentration, and only if the resulting risk is deemed acceptable is the product or chemical allowed for use.

  7. 10. Transport Coefficients during Drying of Solids containing Multicomponent Mixtures

    Author : Rafael Gamero; Joaquín Martínez; Evangelos Tsotsas; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; capillary; conduction; convection; diffusion; evaporation; heat transfer; hydraulic conductivity; liquid film; liquid transport; mass transfer; Maxwell-Stefan diffusion coefficients; molar fluxes; phase equilibrium; temperature gradient; ternary mixture; thermodynamic factors; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : This study investigated the transport coefficients involved in mass and heat transfer during the drying of a porous solid partially saturated with multicomponent mixtures.  It included the coefficients governing liquid transport through the solid, the matrix of multicomponent diffusion coefficients in the liquid phase, and the effective thermal conductivity.
