1. 1. On Sustainability of Biomass for Energy and the Governance Thereof

   Författare :Oskar Englund; Virginia Dale; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sustainability; land use; spatial modelling; biomass production; certification; environmental legislation; biomass resources; ecosystem services; Bioenergy; GIS; biodiversity; governance;

   Sammanfattning : Due to concerns about climate change, energy security, and resource scarcity, non- renewable resources are increasingly being displaced by biomass. As with most human activities, the production of biobased products can be associated with negative impacts. Primarily, this relates to the biomass supply systems, i.e. LÄS MER

3. 2. Biomass in a Sustainable Energy System

   Författare :Pål Börjesson; Miljö- och energisystem; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; kontroll av utsläpp; Miljöteknik; pollution control; Environmental technology; economic valuation; environmental impact; carbon dioxide; Biomass; energy efficiency; Energiforskning; Energy research;

   Sammanfattning : The increased use of biomass for energy is as a key strategy in reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, which represents the largest anthropogenic contribution to the greenhouse effect. In this thesis, aspects of an increase in the utilisation of biomass in the Swedish energy system are treated. LÄS MER

4. 3. Energy system evaluation of thermo-chemical biofuel production : Process development by integration of power cycles and sustainable electricity

   Författare :Martin Bojler Görling; Mats Westermark; Jörgen Held; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biomass; Gasification; Methane; SNG; Power to Gas; Pyrolysis;

   Sammanfattning : Fossil fuels dominate the world energy supply today and the transport sector is no exception. Renewable alternatives must therefore be introduced to replace fossil fuels and their emissions, without sacrificing our standard of living. LÄS MER

5. 4. Pressurized entrained flow gasification of pulverized biomass : Experimental characterization of process performance

   Författare :Fredrik Weiland; Thomas Kolb; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases (e.g. CO2), mostly connected to the use of fossil fuels, to the atmosphere have increased during the last century and there is significant evidence that this is the main reason for the recent global temperature rise. LÄS MER

7. 5. Energy systems studied of biogas : Generation aspects of renewable vehicle fuels in the transport system

   Författare :Mimmi Magnusson; Per Alvfors; Umberto Desideri; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Anaerobic digestion; biogas; biomass; energy system; first-generation biofuels; renewable vehicle fuels; second-generation biofuels; supply- and demand-side measures; third-generation biofuels; transport system;

   Sammanfattning : The transport sector is seen as particularly problematic when concerns about climate change and dependency on fossil energy are discussed. Because of this, bioenergy is strongly promoted for use in the transport sector, both on a European level and nationally in Sweden. LÄS MER
