16. Impact of erosion and deposition processes on wall materials in tokamaks
Abstract : Understanding of material migration and control of fuel retention are essential for the safe operation of a reactor-class fusion machine. Work presented in the thesis focuses on erosion-deposition processes which are decisive for the formation and properties of co-deposited fuel-containing layers on plasma-facing and diagnostic components, and for the dust formation.

17. Ion Beam Analysis of First Wall Materials Exposed to Plasma in Fusion Devices
Abstract : One major step needed for fusion to become a reliable energy source is the development of materials for the extreme conditions (high temperature, radioactivity and erosion) caused by hot plasmas. The main goal of the present study is to use and optimise ion beam methods (lateral resolution and sensitivity) to characterise the distribution of hydrogen isotopes that act as fuel. READ MORE

19. Alkylate Petrol. Environmental Aspects of Volatile Hydrocarbon Emissions
Abstract : All hydrocarbons emitted from production and use of petrol are hazardous to human health and the environment, but to a different extent for individual compounds. This thesis compares and characterizes C2-C8 hydrocarbons related to alkylate petrol and conventional petrol. READ MORE

20. The Release, Distribution, and Implications of Alkalis in Chemical Looping Combustion of Biomass
Abstract : Chemical looping combustion (CLC) of biomass is a promising technology for power generation with a potential net negative CO2 footprint. Like other fluidized bed biomass conversion technologies, biomass CLC may be susceptible to alkali-induced agglomeration, fouling, and corrosion. READ MORE
