  1. 6. Fermentation of undetoxified dilute acid lignocellulose hydrolysate for fuel ethanol production

    Author : Tomas Brandberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hydrolysate; lignocellulose; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; nitrogen limitation; microaerobic conditions; cell recirculation; continuous fermentation; Mucor indicus; ethanol; cell retention;

    Abstract : Important aspects of ethanol production from undetoxified dilute acid lignocellulose hydrolysate are covered in this thesis, which primarily focuses on the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker's yeast) as the biocatalyst. Nine different strains of S. READ MORE

  2. 7. Experimental and Modeling Studies of Sulfur-Based Reactions in Oxy-Fuel Combustion

    Author : Daniel Fleig; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SO3; acid dew-point; coal combustion; oxy-fuel; sulfur; flue gas recycle; corrosion; Carbon capture and storage; H2SO4; SO2;

    Abstract : Oxy-fuel combustion is a technology for CO2 capture that is suitable for large-scale, coal-fired power plants. In this system, the combustion air is replaced by a mixture of O2 and recycled flue gases, so as to enrich for CO2 in the flue gas. READ MORE

  3. 8. Helium in CERMET fuel - binding energies and diffusion

    Author : Odd Runevall; Janne Wallenius; Pavel Korzhavy; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Condensed matter physics; Kondenserade materiens fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a first principle approach to model helium diffusionand retention in molybdenum. Results from electron structure calculations within the framework of density functional theory are used to assess parameters in a rate theory model. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the chemical and isotopic features of groundwater residing in the upper 1.2 km of sparsely fractured crystalline bedrock of the Baltic Shield. READ MORE

  5. 10. Nanocellulose: Energy Applications and Self-Assembly

    Author : Valentina Guccini; German Salazar-Alvarez; Olli Ikkala; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanocellulose; self-assembly; fuel cell; lithium ion battery; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Abstract : Technologies based on renewable materials are required to decrease the environmental cost and promote the development of a sustainable society. In this regard, nanocellulose extracted from wood finds many applications thanks to its intrinsic mechanical and chemical properties as well as the versatility in its manufacturing processes.
