1. Valorisation of Renewable Building Blocks via Transition Metal Catalysis – Glycerol- and Amino Acid Derived Compounds in Hydrogen Borrowing and RuAAC Reactions
Sammanfattning : To a large extent, organic building blocks are today obtained from petroleum-based products. From an environmental point of view, biomass-derived compounds are more sustainable alternatives to such oil-derived molecules. The 12 principles of green chemistry describe how chemical processes can be improved in terms of sustainability. LÄS MER
2. Carbon fibres from lignin-cellulose precursors
Sammanfattning : It is in the nature of the human species to find solutions of complex technical problems and always strive for improvements. The development of new materials is not an exception. One of the many man-made materials is carbon fibre (CF). LÄS MER
3. Operational strategies to control the gas composition in dual fluidized bed biomass gasifiers
Sammanfattning : Steam gasification of biomass can increase the share of renewable energy and material resources in the energy sector, transportation and different industries. Prior its application, the raw gas produced in biomass gasifiers needs to be cleaned from impurities. LÄS MER
4. Conversion of Biomass to Renewable Liquid Feedstocks in Pyrolysis-based Applications
Sammanfattning : The production of chemicals and fuels currently rely on fossil resources which are associated with global warming as well as economic and political instabilities. The demand for renewable alternatives is increasing as legislations on greenhouse gas emissions are becoming more stringent. LÄS MER
5. Design of renewable and functional polyamides and polyhydroxyurethanes with tunable structure-property relationships
Sammanfattning : Redesigning polymeric materials and rethinking their use is imperative in the prospect of a more sustainable future. Critical aspects in this endeavor are the use of renewable monomers to decrease the environmental footprint, implementing green syntheses and production processes and the design for increased recyclability as an end-of-life option to diverge from the generation of plastic waste.
