  1. 11. Atomic Scale Modelling in Photoelectrocatalysis : Towards the Development of Efficient Materials for Solar Fuel Production

    Författare :Giane B. Damas; Carlos Moyses Araujo; Rajeev Ahuja; Clas Persson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photocatalytic hydrogen production; polymeric materials; donor-acceptor architecture; small molecules; density functional theory; hydrogen binding free energies; exciton binding energies; electrocatalysis; carbon dioxide conversion; formic acid production; Sn-based electrodes; Tin oxides; Ru-complexes; Metal Organic Frameworks; carbon dioxide capture.;

    Sammanfattning : Using sunlight to produce valuable chemicals has been pointed out as an interesting alternative to deal with the well-known environmental problem related to the use of fossil fuels for energy generation. Thus, it is crucial for this field the development of novel photocatalysts that could drive the uphill reactions with high efficiency while presenting low price and toxicity. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Land and climate effects of bioenergy - Brazilian sugarcane ethanol and combined biofuel-district heating in Europe

    Författare :Andrea Egeskog; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sugarcane ethanol; bioenergy; Brazil; biofuels for transport; EU; district heating;

    Sammanfattning : According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, use of fossil fuels is the largest source ofthe increase in atmospheric CO2. The second largest is land use change. To reach stringent climate targets,emissions from fossil fuel combustion and land use change will need to be reduced to near zerowithin a few decades. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Toward a more sustainable food system using public procurement

    Författare :Elvira Molin; Anna Björklund; Skoglund Wilhelm; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; procurement; food; sustainability; criteria; Environmental Strategic Analysis; Miljöstrategisk analys;

    Sammanfattning : Around 30 % of today's anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions originate from the food sector. Food production is the lead cause of deforestation, biodiversity loss, depletion of fish stocks, and scarcity of fresh water. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Life cycle assessment of transport systems and transport infrastructure : Investigating methodological approaches and quantifying impacts at project and network levels

    Författare :Carolina Liljenström; Anna Björklund; Susanna Toller; Rolf André Bohne; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Strategier för hållbar utveckling; Strategies for sustainable development;

    Sammanfattning : Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector is a key challenge to reach global climate targets and limit global warming to below 2 ºC. The use of life cycle assessment (LCA) may provide knowledge about the environmental impacts of transport systems so that emission reduction measures can be identified. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Developing Process Design Methodology for Investment Cast Thin-Walled Structures

    Författare :Mohsin Raza; Björn Fagerström; Mark Jolly; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Innovation and Design; innovation och design;

    Sammanfattning : Components for engineering systems, such as gas turbines and jet engines operating at high temperature are usually produced in superalloys. The investment casting process is most widely used for manufacturing these components due to the ability of the process to produce parts with complex geometries to close dimensional tolerances.
