  1. 1. Energy savings for petroleum processing : Using mathematical models, optimal control and diagnostics

    Författare :Esin Iplik; Konstantinos Kyprianidis; Ioanna Aslanidou; Mehmet Mercangöz; Mälardalens universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Petroleum products are widely used as an energy supply, and the total production capacity of petroleum refineries is quite high. In this thesis, an energy intensive refinery process, hydroprocessing, is selected and evaluated in terms of its energy loss contributors. Digital solutions are discussed and demonstrated to reduce losses. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Biodegradation of hydrocarbons in soil and water

    Sammanfattning : Environmental and health aspects of road materials have been discussed for a long time, mostly regarding bitumen and bitumen fumes. However, just a few studies on other types of road materials have been reported. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Hydrodemetallization of Petroleum - Reaction Kinetics, Activity Decay and Long-life Catalysts

    Författare :Fei-Xiang Long; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; catalyst deactivation; large pore catalyst; hydroprocessing; hydrodemetallization; fibrillar alumina support; hydrotreating; kinetics; metal porphyrin; multiresponse parameter estimation; HDM;

    Sammanfattning : Hydrodemetallization (HDM) is an indispensable step in industrial catalytic hydroprocessing of residual oils. To develop improved HDM catalysts and reactors, a detailed knowledge of the reaction mechanisms and kinetics, and a good understanding of the mechanisms and process of the catalyst decaying are very important.

  7. 5. Reducing Carbon Dioxide Emissions from the EU Power and Industry Sectors - An assessment of key technologies and measures

    Författare :Johan Rootzén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; industry; carbon dioxide; cement; European Union; technologies; emission reductions; CCS; power; steel; CO2< sub>; refining; mitigation;

    Sammanfattning : In February 2011, the European Council reconfirmed the goal of reducing EU greenhouse gas emissions by at least 80% by 2050, as compared to the levels in 1990. The power and industrial sectors currently account for almost half of the total GHG emissions in the EU. LÄS MER
