  1. 1. Potential social impacts of a possible implementation of the Pulp & Fuel concept for producing biofuels at a pulp mill

    M1-uppsats, Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Författare :Nora Efraimsson; Sofie Johnsson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :biofuels; process implementation; pulp fuel; Social Life Cycle Assessment; social impacts; sustainability; forest residues;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study is to create an understanding of what potential social impacts (both positive and negative) the concept of P&F will have and could have if an implementation of the process would be done. Interviews are mainly used for providing input to the method S-LCA (Social Life Cycle Assessment) and by that fulfil the purpose. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Horses vs. Machines: A Comparative Energy Analysis between Eighteenth Century- and Modern Copper Mining

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Humanekologi

    Författare :Amos Strömberg; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Copper mining; embodied energy; small-scale mining; degrowth; copper ore grade; Podolinsky’s principle; large-scale mining; 18th century mining; mining; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This study shows the positive benefits of early 18th century copper mining in terms of energy efficiency due to the utilization of animate power, pre-industrial machinery, biofuels and a small-scale of organization. Based on the concept of embodied energy, this study calculates the inputs in early 18th century Falun Coppermine in Sweden and compares it with present-day Chibuluma Coppermine in Zambia. LÄS MER
