    Sammanfattning : Investments in carbon capture from industrial emissions have been on the rise in recent years, having reached over $200 million in 2021 as compared to 2015’s $13 million. The Paris Agreement, signed by 196 parties globally in 2015, is purported to be the primary driver for this, with its ambitious goal of limiting global surface temperature rise to 1. LÄS MER

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Författare :Aleksander Vuksanovic; Marko Gajic; [2022]
    Nyckelord :CCS; BECCS; MCDA; PESTLE; Opportunities and Challenges; Sustainability; Carbon neutral; Carbon negative; Pharmaceutical industry; Climate change mitigation action; CCS; BECCS; MCDA; PESTLE; Möjligheter och utmaningar; Hållbarhet; CO2 neutral; CO2 negativ; Läkemedelsindustri; Åtgärder för att begränsa klimatförändring;

    Sammanfattning : The latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) highlights the great threats of climate change. The chemical industry, including the pharmaceutical sector, is one of the significant contributors to global greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), representing nearly 7% of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

  4. 3. Influence of Wastewater DOM Fractions on the Adsorption of Pharmaceuticals onto Activated Carbon

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Författare :Koustubh Karande; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Wastewater treatment; Dissolved organic matter; Pharmaceuticals; Activated carbon; Hydrophobicity; Molecular weight; Water resources engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Micropollutants in our sources of freshwater is an issue which requires immediate attention. The presence of pharmaceuticals, endocrine disrupting agents, pesticides and other harmful compounds have proven to have impact on the aquatic as well as on human life. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Reducing Carbon Emissions by Phasing Out Fossil Fuel Subsidies - Empirical Evidence from the Philippines

    D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Författare :David Huber; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Fossil Fuel Subsidies; Emissions; Synthetic Control; Carbon Pricing; Philippines;

    Sammanfattning : Eliminating subsidies on fossil fuels is widely recognized as one of the most important steps in the fight against climate change. While fossil fuel subsidies have received increasing attention in research, there is little to no empirical evidence confirming the theoretical emission reduction potential of phasing out such subsidies.

  7. 5. The carbon footprint caused by the oversizing of building service systems : A case study of an NHS Hospital

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Maria Hein; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Design; dimensioning; heating; cooling; boiler; chiller; pump; energy performance; environmental impact; mitigation strategy;

    Sammanfattning : Energy usage in buildings is a main contributor to CO2 emissions and in order for the EU to reach the 2050 goal of carbon-neutrality, there is a great need to improve the energy efficiency in buildings, particularly commercial buildings that often are substantially overdesigned. Excess margins in the design process of building services result in an oversizing of these systems which has great environmental impacts, divided up as the operational and embodied carbon footprints.
