  1. 1. Carbon Capture from Biomass Boiler Flue Gas Emissions using Microalgae : A Case Study

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

    Författare :Graham Kirn; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Capture and storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) is expected to play an important role in climate change mitigation efforts intended to limit global warming to 1.5 °C. Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), in which carbon is captured during energy generation from sustainably sourced biomass fuels, is of particular interest in Sweden. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Selling Carbon Futures: Start-ups and Carbon Dioxide Removal Credits

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Humanekologi; Lunds universitet/Kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi

    Författare :Jonas Winter; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years, carbon dioxide removals have gained significant attention as a potential solution to address the climate crisis, and the IPCC considers it an important component of staying within 1.5 degrees of warming. Start-ups are actively working to translate theoretical approaches into tangible biophysical actions. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Carbon Accounting and SeaweedOffsets : An overview of some current carbon accounting methodologiesand the emerging sector of seaweed carbon offsets

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

    Nyckelord :carbon accounting; carbon offsets; carbon credits; blue carbon; seaweed offsets; climate mitigation; sustainability; klimatkompensering; klimatberäking; begränsning av klimatförändringar; alger; tång; hållbarhet;

    Sammanfattning : As the anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) have increased and received moreattention, the need for climate mitigation solutions has become more urgent. Today, several methodologies for carbon accounting exists, as well as the possibility to offset emissions by buying carbon offsets. LÄS MER

  5. 4. A VR carbon emissions calculator game to encourage sustainable lifestyle

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Författare :Hongyi Luo; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study is to introduce the design and implementation process of a Virtual Reality (VR) carbon emissions calculator game, with the goal of educating and encouraging participation in carbon offsetting activities. The objective of the game is to increase users' awareness of carbon footprints and environmental protection, and motivate them to adopt sustainable behaviors. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Buying carbon neutrality? : Corporate motives for financing carbon offsets

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper
