  3. 2. Parkslide : - från främmande invasiv växt till samhällelig resurs?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för industriell ekonomi, industridesign och maskinteknik

    Författare :Kajsa Niklasson; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Invasive Alien Species; Japanese knotweed; Material driven Design; Sustainable development; Materials; Invasiva främmande arter; Parkslide; Materialdriven design; Hållbar utveckling; Material;

    Sammanfattning : Parkslide är en främmande invasiv växt som ohämmat sprider sig på bekostnad av närliggande vegetation och den biologiska mångfalden. Genom att undersöka möjligheten att ta vara på Parkslides egenskaper och skapa någonting användbart för vårt samhälle, utan negativ påverkan på människa, djur och framtid, så kan det i sin tur skapa en möjlighet för en hållbar utveckling.

  7. 5. Towards Flexible Cogeneration: Techno-economic Optimization of Advanced Combined Cycle Combined Heat and Power Plants integrated with Heat Pumps and Thermal Energy Storage

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Energiteknik

    Författare :Antti Nuutinen; Giovanni Graziano; [2018]
    Nyckelord :co-generation; power plant flexibility; combined cycles; combined heat and power; thermal storage; heat pump;

    Sammanfattning : The liberalization of electricity markets and a growing penetration of renewables is changing operation of electrical grids. The boundary conditions for the operation of conventional power plants are changing and, as such, an improved understanding of the varying loads and prices on the electricity grid is required to assess the performance of emerging combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) concepts and to further optimize their design for these new markets in the pursuit of increasing their profitability, especially when considering combined heat and power (CHP).
