21. Water oxidation : From Molecular Systems to Functional Devices
Sammanfattning : The production of hydrogen gas, through the process of water splitting,is one of the most promising concepts for the production of clean andrenewable fuel.The introduction of this thesis provides a brief overview of fossil fuelsand the need for an energy transition towards clean and renewable energy.

22. Boron compounds as additives to lubricants : synthesis, characterization and tribological optimization
Sammanfattning : Developing new technological solutions, such as use of lightweight materials, less harmful fuels, controlled fuel combustion processes or more efficient exhaust gas after-treatment, are possible ways to reduce the environmental impact of machines. Both the reduction of wear and the friction control are key issues for decreasing of energy losses, improving efficiency and increasing of the life-span of an engine. LÄS MER
23. Investigation of HEV Li-ion Batteries for Lithium Recovery
Sammanfattning : Automobile electrification is one of the technological developments that may establish aneco-friendly transport system by mitigating vehicle emissions, and hopefully lead to a lessfossil fuel-dependent society. Conservative forecasts predict four million electric cars onthe road by 2015 (Bernhart et al., 2012). LÄS MER
24. CO2 capture from oxy-fuel combustion power plants
Sammanfattning : To mitigate the global greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions, carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage (CCS) has the potential to play a significant role for reaching mitigation target. Oxy-fuel combustion is a promising technology for CO2 capture in power plants. LÄS MER
25. Iron-nitrogen containing carbon catalysts for oxygen reduction in fuel cells
Sammanfattning : New solutions to efficiently convert energy are needed to mitigate global climate changes and sustain the needs of the growing population. An energy device with high potential is the proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell. PEM fuel cells can convert chemical energy to electrical energy with extraordinary high conversion efficiency.
