  1. 16. Impact of erosion and deposition processes on wall materials in tokamaks

    Författare :Sunwoo Moon; Marek Rubel; Per Petersson; Wolff Max; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding of material migration and control of fuel retention are essential for the safe operation of a reactor-class fusion machine. Work presented in the thesis focuses on erosion-deposition processes which are decisive for the formation and properties of co-deposited fuel-containing layers on plasma-facing and diagnostic components, and for the dust formation.

  2. 17. Ion Beam Analysis of First Wall Materials Exposed to Plasma in Fusion Devices

    Författare :Per Petersson; Göran Possnert; Anders Hallén; Marek Rubel; Eduardo C. Alves; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ion beam analysis; Microbeam; Plasma wall interaction; Deuterium; Beryllium; Carbon fibre composites; Divertor; Nuclear reaction analysis; Helium-3; Plasma physics with fusion; Plasmafysik med fusion; Ion Physics; Jonfysik;

    Sammanfattning : One major step needed for fusion to become a reliable energy source is the development of materials for the extreme conditions (high temperature, radioactivity and erosion) caused by hot plasmas. The main goal of the present study is to use and optimise ion beam methods (lateral resolution and sensitivity) to characterise the distribution of hydrogen isotopes that act as fuel. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Investigation of thermal biomass gasification for sustainable small scale rural electricity generation in Uganda

    Författare :Joseph Olwa; Torsten Fransson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Tar; Gasification; Biomass; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Sammanfattning : With the increasing need for renewable energy technologies in the world, biomass fuel transformation technology is growing towards meeting that need, among others. Challenges remain certain and new innovations are being tested in bid to overcome them with the application of biomass as energy source. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Alkylate Petrol. Environmental Aspects of Volatile Hydrocarbon Emissions

    Författare :Ulf Östermark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrocarbons; small engines; alkylate; alkenes; ethene; benzene; 3-butadiene; two-stroke engines; reformulated petrol; reformulated gasoline; 1;

    Sammanfattning : All hydrocarbons emitted from production and use of petrol are hazardous to human health and the environment, but to a different extent for individual compounds. This thesis compares and characterizes C2-C8 hydrocarbons related to alkylate petrol and conventional petrol. LÄS MER

  5. 20. The Release, Distribution, and Implications of Alkalis in Chemical Looping Combustion of Biomass

    Författare :Ivan Gogolev; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; chemical looping combustion; carbon capture; alkali release; biomass;

    Sammanfattning : Chemical looping combustion (CLC) of biomass is a promising technology for power generation with a potential net negative CO2 footprint. Like other fluidized bed biomass conversion technologies, biomass CLC may be susceptible to alkali-induced  agglomeration, fouling, and corrosion. LÄS MER
