Concerns about energy-related emissions and energy dependence and security while also achieving the SDGs are fuelling the rising interest in socio-technical transitions towards more sustainable energy systems. Community energy projects have been proposed as a tool for this transition to renewable energy, but little is known about its potential to foster the wider transformation of the energy syste

The European Spallation Source (ESS), Lund, Sweden will be a 5MW long-pulse neutron spallation research facility and will enable new opportunities for researchers in the fields of life sciences, energy, environmental technology, cultural heritage and fundamental physics. Neutrons are produced by accelerating a high-energy proton beam into a rotating helium-cooled tungsten target. These neutrons pa
The majority of the power production in the world today is based on combustion of coal, oil and natural gas. Most countries have agreed that the amount of CO2 emitted to the atmosphere will have to be decreased to keep the global warming at sustainable levels. One way of reducing the CO2 emitted to the atmosphere is by introducing hydrogen co-firing. The hydrogen may be produced from renewable so
Earlier work has derived the storage complexity of the bounded distance decoder (BDD) for binary-channel convolutional codes. We extend this work to the Gaussian noise channel and to partial-response codes. We show that the storage requirement similar to(2(1-R) - 1)(-t) paths for rate-R convolutional codes over the binary channel becomes similar to2(2Rt) over the Gaussian channel, where the decode
We present the design, prototype developments and test results of the new time-of-flight detector (ToFD) which is part of the R3B experimental setup at GSI and FAIR, Darmstadt, Germany. The ToFD detector is able to detect heavy-ion residues of all charges at relativistic energies with a relative energy precision σΔE/ΔE of up to 1% and a time precision of up to 14 ps (sigma). Together with an
Production of glycidyl ethers is industrially carried Out by reacting alcohols with epichlorhydrin, a potentially carcinogenic compound. This paper investigates a less hazardous alternative-that of a chemo-enzymatic process in which Candida antarctica lipase B catalysed generation of peracid from a carboxylic acid is followed by a Prileshajev epoxidation of the corresponding allyl ether. Trimethyl
The goal of the investigations is to gain an increased understanding of the complex catalytic reactions, for applications in the production of technical catalysts to enhance the reaction rates and improve the selectivity. Our approach is to use appropriate model systems that can be structural and chemically characterized by established surface science techniques for later operando investigations [

A study of complex formation of Zn(II) tetraarylporphyrin dendrimers with carbazolylphenyl branches towards 1,4-diazabicyclo-[2.2.2]octane, pyridine, imidazole, N-methylimidazole and 1,2,3-triazole was carried out by spectrophotometric and H-1 NMR titration methods. It has been shown that the binding ability of the porphyrin receptors towards mono and bidentate N-containing substrates depends on t
Engine tests have been performed on a 9.6 liter spark-ignited engine fueled by natural gas and a mixture of 25/75 hydrogen/natural gas by volume. The scope of the work was to test two strategies for low emissions of harmful gases; lean burn operation and stoichiometric operation with EGR and a three-way catalyst. Most gas engines today, used in city buses, utilize the lean burn approach to achieve
A solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is a clean and high-efficiency energy conversion device, which undergoes improvement of performance continuously. The transport of gas species and charges proceed in the porous electrodes. The porous electrodes are also responsible for the removal of exhaust gases. In this paper, a fully coupled 3D single-channel multiphysics computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model
The chemical industry must undergo a dual transformation: electrifying energy use and defossilizing carbon feedstocks. This paper, developed by ENGIEs Scientific Council, examines how energy and chemistry can converge to enable this shift. We assess the roles of biomass, recycled plastics, and CO2 as sustainable carbon sources and explore the enabling potential of electrification, low-carbon hydro
Division of Building Physics The Division's research is about Theoretical and Practical Building Physics as well as the application of the subject through the development of Building Technology. The primary purpose is to combine building materials into well-functioning building components and buildings that are healthy for people to stay in for a long time. In order to have a sustainable society,

In Sweden there has been an increasing power shortage recently, especially in the region of Scania, which has resulted in escalating electricity prices and in turn a public will to fix the problem. The situation is a result of the existing electricity production being decommissioned or replaced by more variable alternatives together with the fact that electricity transmission from other parts of S
This thesis presents the simulations of and experiments with the so-called CECOST burner. The CECOST burner is a gas turbine model combustor equipped with an axial swirler and placed in a laboratory for the lean premixed turbulent combustion of a range of fuels at atmospheric pressure. The operation with natural gas, methane, hydrogen-enriched methane and syngas from black-liquor gasification was
