  1. 1. Stability improvement to a ruthenium catalyst for partial oxidation of methane

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Författare :Melker Axelsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :catalysis; reaction engineering; kinetics; partial oxidation; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Catalytic partial oxidation of methane (CPOM) is an energy-efficient alternative to steam reforming, the currently prevailing method for energy production from natural gas. Hulteberg Chemistry & Engineering AB has developed a catalyst for the partial oxidation of methane into syngas, for use in solid oxide fuel cells. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Metals for energy storage : For hydrogen and power generation

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Konstruktionsmaterial

    Författare :Oscar Torsteinsrud; Mattias Reijm; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Metals; Energy Storage; Round Trip Efficiency; Aluminum; Boron; Magnesium; Silicon; Zinc;

    Sammanfattning : With an increase in energy demand and a transition from conventional fossil-driven energy generation, the world is facing a major challenge. This transition implies more intermittent energy sources whose reliance varies widely with time. To deal with this challenge, energy storage is one part of the solution. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Digging Deeper: Exploring Roads to Inclusive Development Through Mine Closure Policy and Practices in the Dominican Republic

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Bianca Terrero Vega; [2023]
    Nyckelord :mine closure; inclusive development; mineral governance; community engagement; energy transition metals; just transitions.; Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Mining operations have significant environmental and social impacts, including ecosystem fragmentation, biodiversity loss, pollution, and social issues such as low wages and unsafe working conditions. Despite these negative effects, mining plays a crucial role in the transition to low-carbon technologies and the demand for energy transition minerals is expected to surge. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Tuning Photovoltaic Properties of Two-dimensional Molybdenum Disulfide by Alloying: An ab initio study

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Författare :Mochen Li; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Photovoltaic; Molybdenum disulfide; Absorption coefficient; ab initio material design; Fotovoltaisk; Molybdendisulfid; Absorptionskoefficient; ab initio materialdesign;

    Sammanfattning : Addressing the urgent need for innovative energy solutions amidst increasing environmental concerns, the focus on photovoltaic solar cells is intensifying. Currently limited by the Shockley-Queisser limit, conventional silicon-based solar cells offer a maximum power conversion efficiency of 32%. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Unveiling Contradictions: The Green Energy Transition and Sámi Indigenous Rights in the Per Geijer Expansion, Kiruna, Sweden

    Magister-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för Urbana Studier (US)

    Författare :Maria Svensson; Maria Schmidt; [2023]
    Nyckelord :green energy transition; Indigenous rights; extractive industries; mining; sustainable development; Sámi; social sustainability;

    Sammanfattning : In recent decades, there has been a growing recognition of Indigenous rights over traditional territories and natural resources, alongside the intensification of extractive activities on Indigenous lands, often in violation of their rights.The paradox is driven by several factors, including escalating global commodity prices, energy security concerns, and the shift towards green energy.
