  1. 1. Process modelling based on data from an evaporation and a CTMP process : Analysis of energy efficiency and process variability

    Author : Daniel Ekbåge; Lars Nilsson; Helena Håkansson; Per Engstrand; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CTMP; process modelling; evaporation; energy efficiency; Miljö- och energisystem; Environmental and Energy Systems;

    Abstract : The manufacture of pulp and paper is an energy intensive process configured of several unit processes that shape a network of flows of wood chips, chemical pulp, mechanical pulp, paperboard, steam and other important components. Improved energy efficiency supports sustainability of the process and the products. READ MORE

  2. 2. Variability in Software Systems

    Author : Jilles van Gurp; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Object oriented frameworks; software product lines; variability;

    Abstract : Reuse of software assets has been, and continues to be the holy grail of software engineering. In this thesis we argue that a prerequisite for reusability is variability. In order to reuse a piece of software, it needs to be adapted to the environment in which it will be reused. READ MORE

  3. 3. Process modelling in pulp and paper manufacture : Application studies with aspects of energy efficiency and product quality

    Author : Daniel Ekbåge; Lars Nilsson; Helena Håkansson; Birgitta Engberg; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CTMP; freeness; process modelling; board machine; multiple effect evaporator; Miljö- och energisystem; Environmental and Energy Systems;

    Abstract : The manufacture of pulp and paper is an energy intensive process configured of several unit processes that shape a network of flows of wood chips, chemical pulp, mechanical pulp, board and other important components. Improved energy efficiency supports sustainability of the process and the products. READ MORE

  4. 4. Uncertainty, variability and environmental risk analysis

    Author : Monika Filipsson; Tomas Öberg; Bo Bergbäck; Lars Rosén; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : Contaminated land; exposure assessment; exposure factors; risk analysis; risk perception; uncertainty; variability; probabilistic risk assessment; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Miljövetenskap; Environmental Science;

    Abstract : The negative effects of hazardous substances and possible measures that can be taken are evaluated in the environmental risk analysis process, consisting of risk assessment, risk communication and risk management. Uncertainty due to lack of knowledge and natural variability are always present in this process. READ MORE

  5. 5. Process development for platform chemical production from agricultural and forestry residues

    Author : David Nickel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biorefinery; pretreatment; lignocellulose; multi-feed SSCF; preadaptation; multi-scale variability analysis; platform chemicals; lactic acid; logging residues; mixed feedstocks; ethanol;

    Abstract : As part of a bio-based economy, biorefineries are envisaged to sustainably produce platform chemicals via biochemical conversion of agricultural and forestry residues. However, supply risks, the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass, and inhibitor formation during pre­treatment impair the economic feasibility of such biorefineries. READ MORE
