1. 1. Assessment of biochar potential as a land-based emission mitigation measure in Colombia

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

   Författare :Eileen Jimena Torres Morales; [2022]
   Nyckelord :agriculture; biochar; climate change mitigation; carbon sink; Colombia; land-based mitigation technologies LMT ; nature-based solutions NBS ; PESTEL Political; Economic; Social; Technological; Environmental Legal ; pyrolysis; residual biomass; soil adaptation; techno-economic analysis.; jordbruk; biokol; begränsningar av klimatförändringar; kolsänka; Colombia; land-baserad begränsningsteknik; Naturbaserade lösningar NBS ; PESTEL Political; Economic; Social; Technological; Environmental Legal ; pyrolys; restbiomassa; jordförbättring; Teknisk-ekonomisk analys;

   Sammanfattning : There is an urgent need to mitigate carbon emissions to the atmosphere to reduce the negative effects of climate change. Countries have pledged national strategies to reach their climate change mitigation goals in their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC). In the case of Colombia, the country envisions becoming carbon neutral by 2050. LÄS MER

3. 2. Implementering av fjärde generationens fjärrvärme i svenska fjärrvärmenät : En fallstudie på Borlänges fjärrvärmenät

   Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Energisystem

   Författare :Henrik Nordström; Klara Smeds; [2021]
   Nyckelord :4GDH low temperature district heating; 4GDH lågtempererad fjärrvärme;

   Sammanfattning : För att möta problem med ökande klimatförändringar kan fjärrvärmen ha en betydande roll ur både en svensk och en internationell kontext. Samtidigt står svenska fjärrvärmebolag inför betydande utmaningar då värmepumpar blir ett allt vanligare val för att möta uppvärmnings- och tappvarmvattenbehovet, tillgången till avfall och biomassa som bränsle förutspås bli mer begränsad och byggnaders uppvärmningsbehov blir allt lägre.

4. 3. Re-thinking green roof design : The prospect of a carbon sink structure investigated through a life cycle cost-benefit analysis

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

   Författare :Aziliz Le Rouzo; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Carbon Footprint; Green Roof Design; Carbon Sink; Cost-Effectiveness; Life cycle Cost-Benefit Analysis; Green Roofs; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : Green Roofs (GRs) have been used worldwide as a solution for greening cities, while providing useful services to society such as storm water management, improved air quality, energy savings, and increased biodiversity, to name a few. However, the environmental impact of their structure has been understudied, and more importantly, the carbon cost related to the use of materials that have a high carbon footprint has received little to no attention.

5. 4. Feasibility analysis of upgrading the cogeneration unit of George Washington sugar mill in Cuba

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

   Författare :Joakim Ginste; Sascha Partanen; [2020]
   Nyckelord :CEST; cogeneration; levelized cost of energy; net present value; sugar mill; CEST; kraftvärmeverk; energiproduktionskostnad; nettonuvärde; sockerbruk;

   Sammanfattning : Cuba’s government has set a goal to generate 24 percent of the country’s electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The country’s many sugar mills have been identified as key contributors to reach this goal as their cogeneration units have the potential to significantly increase Cuba’s electricity production from biomass by upgrading them to bioelectric plants.

7. 5. The cost of phasing out coal - Quantifying and comparing compensation costs of coal phase-out policies to governments

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

   Författare :Lola Nacke; [2020]
   Nyckelord :Political feasibility; decarbonization; distributional costs; coal phase-out; marginal abatement cost; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : To reach internationally agreed climate targets, it is especially important to phase out coal-powered electricity generation in favour of low-carbon technologies. Several governments have pledged to phase out coal power. However, coal phase-out is hindered by resistance of negatively affected workers, companies and regional governments. LÄS MER
