  1. 1. Biobased iron pellet production : Assessment of the availability and sustainability of biomass as fuel for iron ore pellet production in LKAB

    Master-uppsats, Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, design och hållbar utveckling (2023-)

    Författare :Magnus Kemi; [2023]
    Nyckelord :bio-energy; biomass; coal; greenhouse gas emissions; industrial residues; LCA; LKAB; logging residues; iron ore; pellets; sinters; willow; sustainability;

    Sammanfattning : Iron production accounts for substantial shares of global coal use and GHG emissions. LKAB is Europe’s largest iron company and Sweden’s fourth-largest emitter of GHGs. To reduce its emissions, LKAB might implement biomass in iron ore pelletisation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Forest growth under future climate change in the context of bioenergy – case studies of combined heat and power plants in Sweden

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Chi Yuen Hui; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography; Climate Change; Ecosystem Modelling; LPJ-GUESS; BECCS; Geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The pressure to achieve net-zero emissions has pushed for new technologies including carbon capture and storage (CCS) based on the combustion of biomass (BECCS). While bioenergy is a relatively mature industry in Sweden, the addition of CCS may increase the demand for local biomass. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Manufacturing & Regional Cost Competitiveness of Commercial Sodium Ion Cells : A bottom-up cost analysis of Lithium and Sodium Ion Battery Storage

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

    Författare :Srujan Kiran Alva; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Sodium Prussian Blue Analogues; Sodium layered oxides; Lithium Iron Phosphate; Sodium NMC111; Lithium NMC111; Battery Manufacturing Scaling; Cost Analysis; Battery manufacturing policy; Industrial Import Costs; Cathode Thickness;

    Sammanfattning : Batteries are increasingly seen as an indispensable element in the rapid progress of the energy transition. With forecasts for global demand set to reach 2 TWh by 2030 and increasing policy support for battery manufacturers, many questions arise on whether the current rapid expansion of battery manufacturing industry is sustainable.

  5. 4. Production of critical minerals and metals: Empirical investigation of sustainability aspects

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Johanna Askros; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Energy transition; environmental justice; sustainable development; sustainable mining; systems thinking;

    Sammanfattning : The threat of global climate change has brought on the need for a transition towards renewable energy sources and electrification, thereby creating a significantly increased demand for energy minerals and metals. Despite being on a path towards an energy system with net-zero emissions, the European Union (EU) is currently highly dependent on the import of these minerals and metals from outside of the Union.

  7. 5. Exploring nearshoring opportunities in a low-cost country : a case study of nearshoring between Sweden and Morocco

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

    Författare :Lovisa Hillberg; Jenny Gustafsson; Märta Huldén; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Sourcing strategies; Nearshoring; Textile industry; Production; Sustainability;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study is to explore possibilities for textile companies in European high-cost countries to relocate production to low-cost countries in North Africa by performing a case study on Sweden and Morocco. The study will thereby contribute to increased understanding of nearshoring opportunities in low-cost countries. LÄS MER
