  1. 1. CO2 Emissions from Northern Lakes : Insights on regulation and spatiotemporal variability across contrasting lakes in Sweden

    Författare :David Rudberg; David Bastviken; Paul Hanson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lake; CO2 flux; Spatiotemporal variability; Empirical models; Sjö; Koldioxid-flöde; Rumsliga och tidsmässiga variationer; Empiriska modeller;

    Sammanfattning : Lakes cover only ~2 % of the global land area, but their connections to the surrounding catchment make them important for the global carbon cycle. A considerable amount of the carbon input to lakes is emitted to the atmosphere as carbon dioxide (CO2) through diffusive flux. LÄS MER

  3. 2. System studies of different CO2 mitigation options in the oil refining industry: Post-combustion CO2 capture and biomass gasification

    Författare :Daniella Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; process integration; post-combustion CO2 capture. CO2 capture and storage CCS ; GHG emissions; oil refining industry; CO2 emissions; Fischer-Tropsch FT ; biomass gasification; energy market scenarios;

    Sammanfattning : To reach the objective endorsed by the EU Council for reducing EU greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 80-90% compared to 1990 levels by 2050, extensive cuts are necessary in all sectors. The oil refining sector is a major energy user and thus a major GHG emitter. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Energy Export Opportunities from Kraft Pulp and Paper Mills and Resulting Reductions in Global CO2 Emissions

    Författare :Erik Marcus Kristian Axelsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy export; Heat integration; Energy savings; Kraft pulp and paper mill; Global CO2 emissions;

    Sammanfattning : With increasing energy prices and increasing demand for CO2-lean energy sources, energy savings in the pulp and paper industry become ever more relevant. Significant energy savings in kraft mills can be made by e.g. improved heat integration and installation of an energy-efficient evaporation plant. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Improved Energy Efficiency and Fuel Substitution in the Iron and Steel Industry

    Författare :Maria Johansson; Mats Söderström; Henrik Saxén; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; iron and steel industry; energy efficiency; CO2 emissions; fuel substitution; fuel switch; excess heat; biomass gasification; bio-syngas; synthetic natural gas; SNG; energy market scenarios; energy management; barriers; driving forces; järn- och stålindustrin; energieffektivisering; CO2-utsläpp; bränslebyte; överskottsvärme; restvärme; förgasning; bio-syntesgas; syntetisk naturgas; SNG; energimarknadsscenarier; energiledning; hinder; drivkrafter;

    Sammanfattning : IPCC reported in its climate change report 2013 that the atmospheric concentrations of the greenhouse gases (GHG) carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, and nitrous oxide now have reached the highest levels in the past 800,000 years. CO2 concentration has increased by 40% since pre-industrial times and the primary source is fossil fuel combustion. LÄS MER

  7. 5. 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.
