2. 1. On the Electrolyte Induced Aggregation of Concentrated Silica Dispersions - An Experimental Investigation Using the Electrospray Technique

   Author : Ann-Catrin J. H. Johnsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Colloidal silica dispersion; aggregation; gelation; electrospray ES ; scanning mobility particle sizer SMPS ; synchrotron radiation small-angle x-ray scattering SR-SAXS ; electron microscopy EM ; dynamic light scattering DLS ; particle morphology; ion specificity; gel layer;

   Abstract : Gels are weak, solid-like structures that arise when colloidal particles aggregate to form a network of particle clusters. A variety of colloidal systems that are important scientifically as well as in industrial applications are capable of gel formation, e.g. globular protein solutions, colloid-polymer mixtures, and metal oxides.

4. 2. Particle emissions from wood pellet combustion

   Author : Henrik Wiinikka; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

   Abstract : Combustion of solid biomass under fixed bed conditions is a common technique to generate heat and power in both small and large scale grate furnaces (domestic boilers, stoves, district heating plants). Unfortunately, combustion of biomass will generate particle emissions containing both large fly ash particles and fine particles that consist of fly ash and soot. READ MORE

5. 3. Experimental and modelling studies of particle radiation in flames

   Author : Daniel Bäckström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : Combustion of solid fuels is an important part of many industrial and power generation processes. The global use of coal in these processes is vast and thus also the related emissions of CO2 to the atmosphere. It is not possible to continue on the path with continuously increasing emissions of CO2 if the global climate targets should be met. READ MORE

6. 4. Hydrolytic Synthesis and Physicochemical Properties of TiO2 Nanoparticles: Fundamentals and Applications

   Author : Jenny Perez-Holmberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Titanium dioxide TiO2 ; Nanoparticles; Synthesis; Hydrolysis; Titanium tetrachloride TiCl4 ; Anatase; Brookite; DLS; ES-SMPS; XRD; Collective diffusion; Interfacial processes;

   Abstract : Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were synthesized via the hydrolysis of TiCl4 in order to produce clean, surfactant-free oxide surfaces. By controlling the synthesis and aging conditions, stable particles with well-defined size distributions were obtained. READ MORE

7. 5. Study of Catalyst Deactivation in Three Different Industrial Processes

   Author : Ann-Charlotte Larsson; Mehri Sanati; Ferruccio Trifiro; Växjö universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; deactivation; catalyst; SCR; VOC; steam reforming; aerosol particle; potassium; zinc; ash salts; biomass; organosilicon; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Kemi; Chemistry;

   Abstract : Deactivation of catalysts were investigated focusing on three industrial processes: 1) Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) for abatement of NOx from biomass combustion using V2O5-WO3 /TiO2 catalysts; 2) Catalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from printing industries using a Pt/γ-Al2O3 catalyst; and 3) Ni and Pt/Rh catalysts used in steam reforming reaction of bio-syngas obtained from biomass gasification.The aim has been to simulate industrial conditions in laboratory experiments in order to comprehend influence of compounds affecting catalysts performance.
