  1. 1. Sludge from pulp and paper mills for biogas production : Strategies to improve energy performance in wastewater treatment and sludge management

    Författare :Alina Hagelqvist; Thomas Nilsson; Karin M. Granström; Bengt Månsson; Bo Mattiasson; Thomas Welander; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; anaerobic digestion; pulp and paper mill sludge; methane production; energy efficient sludge management; Miljö- och energisystem; Environmental and Energy Systems;

    Sammanfattning : The production of pulp and paper is associated with the generation of large quantities of wastewater that has to be purified to avoid severe pollution of the environment. Wastewater purification in pulp and paper mills combines sedimentation, biological treatment, chemical precipitation, flotation and anaerobic treatment, and the specific combination of techniques is determined by the local conditions.

  2. 2. Integrated sewage sludge treatment scenarios – techno-economic analysis on energy and phosphorus recovery

    Författare :Marzieh Bagheri; Elisabeth Wetterlund; Marcus Öhman; Lale Andreas; Roozbeh Feiz; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sewage sludge management; techno-economic analysis; phosphorus recovery; thermochemical treatment; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Sewage sludge is a by-product of wastewater treatment that simultaneously gathers contaminants, valuable organic matter, and nutrients. The treatment of the increasing amount of sewage sludge is important from both pollution prevention and resource recovery perspectives as i) large shares of mineral phosphorus, listed as a critical raw material, terminate in the sewage sludge, and ii) energy recovery from sewage sludge can cover the energy-intensive demand of the treatment process.

  3. 3. Forest industry sludge as a resource for energy recovery

    Författare :Alina Hagelqvist; Ola Holby; Karin Granström; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Miljö- och energisystem; Environmental and Energy Systems;

    Sammanfattning : Forest industries produce large amounts of carbon rich sludges as by-products in their processes. Presently sludge is treated as a poor quality biofuel for co-incineration, some mills treat it solely as a disposal problem. This thesis provides an introduction to production, composition and disposal issues of sludge. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Waste-integrated biorefineries : A path towards efficient utilization of waste

    Författare :Chaudhary Awais Salman; Jinyue Yan; Eva Thorin; Mika Järvinen; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gasification; Pyrolysis; Anaerobic digestion; Process integration; Aspen Plus; Ebsilon; Techno-economic analysis; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Waste-management systems have progressed from landfilling and dumping to waste prevention, recycling and resource recovery. In state-of-the-art waste-management industries, waste is separated into various fractions and treated with suitable processes. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Evaluation of process parameters and treatments of different raw materials for biogas production

    Författare :Malik Badshah; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Anaerobic digestion; biogas; lignocellulosics; inoculum to substrate ratio; feed composition; toxicity; furaldehydes; paper and pulp sludges.;

    Sammanfattning : The anaerobic digestion process results in the production of biogas from a large diversity of organic residues, which can be used as an alternate source of energy generation and for waste management. However, the biogas production technology is not exploited efficiently due to the characteristics of raw materials, poor methane yields, process instability, limited raw materials and lack of knowledge about the process.
