1. 16. Air-Sea Fluxes of CO2 : Analysis Methods and Impact on Carbon Budget

   Författare :Maria Norman; Anna Rutgersson; Erik Sahlée; William Drennan; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; air-sea exchange; carbon dioxide; Baltic Sea; eddy-covariance method; inertial dissipation method; cospectral-peak method; Baltic Sea measurements; CO2 fluxes; Galathea 3 expedition; Baltic Sea modeling; water-side convection; coastal upwelling; carbon budget; Meteorology; Meteorologi;

   Sammanfattning : Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important greenhouse gas, and the atmospheric concentration of CO2 has increased by more than 100 ppm since prior to the industrial revolution.  The global oceans are considered an important sink of atmospheric CO2, since approximately one third of the anthropogenic emissions are absorbed by the oceans.

3. 17. Land use GHG emissions and mitigation options, simulated by CoupModel

   Författare :Hongxing He; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GHG; CO2; N2O; forest; drained peatland; clay soil; willow; soil nitrate leaching; modeling; CoupModel; GLUE; Land use; mitigation option; cost benefit analysis;

   Sammanfattning : Climate change and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are one of the major challenges to the humankind of 21st Century. This thesis focuses on understanding, estimating and suggesting mitigation of the GHG emissions (mainly N2O and CO2) from the land use sector, specifically from forest ecosystems on drained peatlands but also from willow production on agricultural clay soil.

4. 18. Opportunities for CO2 Reductions and CO2-Lean Energy Systems in Pulp and Paper Mills

   Författare :Kenneth Möllersten; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :CO2 reduction; pulp and paper industry; energy system; biomass; CO2 capture and sequestration; black liquor; gasification; power production; outsourcing; sustainable energy management;

   Sammanfattning : The risk for climate change is a growing concern for theglobal society. According to what is known as the Kyoto Protocol,developed countries have committed themselves to reduce theirgreenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The purpose of this thesis hasbeen to analyse opportunities for CO2 reductions in Swedish pulpand paper mills. LÄS MER

5. 19. Economic growth, energy consumption and CO2 emissions in Sweden 1800-2000

   Författare :Astrid Kander; Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; energy intensity; Environmental Kuznets Curve; relative price analyses; standard calculations; technical change; structural changes; energy quality factors; consumers surplus; Social and economic history; forest management; CO2 intensity; Ekonomisk och social historia;

   Sammanfattning : Large transformations of technologies have occurred in the Swedish economy during the last two centuries, resulting in higher income, better quality of products and changing composition of GDP. An agrarian society has given way to an industrial society and lately to a post-industrial phase. LÄS MER

7. 20. Hybrid Solvents based on Ionic Liquids/Deep Eutectic Solvents for CO2 Separation : Experiments, Modeling, Process Simulation and Evaluation

   Författare :Chunyan Ma; Xiaoyan Ji; Päivi Mäki-Arvela; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CO2 separation; Ionic liquids; Deep eutectic solvents; Cosolvent; Thermodynamic modeling; Process simulation and evaluation; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : CO2 separation plays a vital role in reducing CO2 emissions to combat climate change, in which solvent-based absorption is widely considered the most promising technology. Many conventional chemical and physical solvents have been introduced for CO2 separation, still facing challenges. LÄS MER
