    Sammanfattning : Combustion of solid fuels stands for a substantial part of the heat and power production in the world. In this thesis different aspects related to the thermochemical conversion of solid fuels in fluidized and fixed beds are treated, such as: the combustion temperature of a fuel particle related to the surrounding temperature in a fluidized bed combustor (FBC); the fuel loading in a FBC; a transient description of the conversion of non-spherical fuel particles; the thermochemical properties and composition of volatiles released from wood; the thermal conductivity of wood during different stages of conversion; the modelling of a grate furnace; the general combustion behaviour of a fixed bed on a reciprocating or a travelling grate; and finally, the design and construction of experimental units for investigation of combustion in a fixed bed.

    Sammanfattning : Heavy-duty trucks are in idle operation during long periods of time, providing the vehicles with electricity via the alternator at standstill. Idling trucks contribute to large amounts of emissions and high fuel consumption as a result of the low efficiency from fuel to electricity. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : The polymer electrolyte fuel cell converts the chemical energy in a fuel, e.g. hydrogen or methanol, and oxygen into electrical energy. The high efficiency and the possibility to use fuel from renewable sources make them attractive as energy converters in future sustainable energy systems. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Flexible and transparent biological electric power sources based on nanostructured electrodes

    Sammanfattning : Portabel medicinteknisk utrustning framträder alltmer som en av de mest lovande metoderna för vårdövervakning och personlig behandling. Förebyggande vård och hantering av kroniska sjukdomar är resurskrävande och en överföring av det konventionella sjukhuscentrerade sjukvårdssystemet till ett individcentrerat vårdsystem skulle vara samhällsekonomiskt gynnsam.
