1. Fuel conversion and ash formation interactions : a thermochemical study on lignocellulosic biomass
Sammanfattning : Biomass is considered to be CO2 neutral, and to be able to reduce the dependency on fossil fuels the need for expanded and sustainable biomass feedstock is increasing. Ash-related problems are some of the most important aspects of this increasing use of new biomass assortments in thermal energy conversion systems. LÄS MER
2. Evaluation of biosensors and flow cytometry as monitoring tools in lignocellulosic bioethanol production
Sammanfattning : The significant environmental impact of the current fossil fuel-based industry is a major concern for society. Consequently, various initiatives are being undertaken to establish a more sustainable industrial model. LÄS MER
3. Biochemical conversion of biomass : hydrothermal pretreatment, by-product formation, conditioning, enzymatic saccharification, and fermentability
Sammanfattning : Lignocellulosic residues have great potential as feedstocks for production of bio-based chemicals and fuels. One of the main routes is biochemical conversion, which typically includes pretreatment, enzymatic saccharification, microbial fermentation of sugars, and valorization of hydrolysis lignin. LÄS MER
4. Spectroscopic characterization of lignocellulosic biomass
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on characterization of organic components and inorganic elements in lignocellulosic biomass. The chosen biomass models were mostly wood from conifers and straw from rhizomatous grasses but also forest-based residues and agro-based plants. LÄS MER
5. Fractionation of hardwood using steam explosion and hydrotropic extraction : Process development for improved fractionation
Sammanfattning : The utilisation of biomass instead of fossil resources is an important alternative for the transition into a sustainable society. Biomass, owing to its primary constituents—cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin—has the potential to replace many products that are produced from fossil resources today, including plastics, textile fibres and fuels.
