The rapid growth of photovoltaic (PV) deployment has raised concerns about the management of end-of-life PV modules, particularly crystalline silicon (c-Si) technologies approaching the end of their service life. Although PV systems contribute to renewable electricity generation, the increasing number of ageing modules poses environmental, technical, and resource-related challenges regarding wheth

The integrated-multistage process proposed herein is a practical example of a biorefinery platform in which the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) is used as a valued source for polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) and biogas production. Technical and economical feasibilities of this approach have been demonstrated at pilot-scale, providing a possible upgrade to traditional biowaste manageme

Laser wakefield electron acceleration in the blow-out regime and the associated betatron X-ray radiation were investigated experimentally as a function of the plasma density in a configuration where the laser is guided. Dielectric capillary tubes were employed to assist the laser keeping self-focused over a long distance by collecting the laser energy around its central focal spot. With a 40 fs, 1

The vast majority of the biofuels presently used in the EU are so called first generation biofuels produced from crops. Concerns of food security, displacement of food crop production and indirect land use change (iLUC) has led to the introduction of measures to reduce the use of first generations biofuels and promote so called advanced biofuels based on feedstock that does not compete with food/f

Fuel-cycle emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) carbon oxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulphur dioxide (SO2), hydrocarbons (HC), methane (CH4), and particles are analysed from a life-cycle perspective for different biogas systems based oil six different raw materials. The gas is produced in large- or farm-scale biogas plants, and is used in boilers for heat production, in turbines for co-generatio

Climate warming is expected to alter hydropower generation in California through affecting the annual stream-flow regimes and reducing snowpack. On the other hand, increased temperatures are expected to increase hydropower demand for cooling in warm periods while decreasing demand for heating in winter, subsequently altering the annual hydropower pricing patterns. The resulting variations in hydro

Product gas obtained through biomass gasification can be upgraded to hydrogen-rich synthesis gas. The synthesis gas can be further converted to liquid or gaseous fuels. However, the raw product gas contains both gas- and particle-phase impurities that can negatively affect both catalysts and hot-gas filters used for upgrading and cleaning. The present study aimed to characterize, both physically a

Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling presenteras en ny typ av röntgenkälla baserad på ett laser-producerat plasma. Röntgenstrålning alstras genom att fokusera laserpulser på ett strålmål. Energin i de enskilda laserpulserna blott är cirka 150 mJ, men tack vare den extremt korta pulstiden 100 fs (10E-13 s), blir laserns toppeffekt mer än 1 TW (10E12 W). Den extremt intensiva laserstrålninA laser-produced plasma was generated by focusing 100 fs laser pulses, with an energy of 150 mJ, onto metal targets. The laser intensity was expected to reach 10E17 W/cm2. Radiation was emitted from the created plasma, with photon energies extending up to the MeV regime. The laser-based X-ray source was optimised, with the purpose of making it a realistic source of hard X-rays (>10 keV). Dedicated

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ny innovativ processdesign har resulterat i två processer som kan göra tillverkningen av förnyelsebara plaster och bränslen konkurrenskraftiga mot dagens fossila alternativ. Den nya designen har gjort vissa processteg upp mot 40 gånger så effektiva som med dagens teknik. Vikten av att ställa om dagens samhälle, som till stor del är beroende av fossila resurser, till eIt is important to replace fossil resources such as oil, coal and natural gas with renewable raw materials for the production of materials and fuels in order to reduce environmental impact. Furthermore, these raw materials should preferably be residues, e.g. agricultural or forest residues, in order not to compete with the production of human food and animal feed. High molecular weight arabinoxyla

Dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) recently attracted much attention as a relatively efficient and inexpensive light-to-electricity energy conversion solution. So far the best performing DSSC devices were produced employing ruthenium (RuII) complexes as the active material, nevertheless limited resources of this metal initiated the research of new alternatives. Iron is one of the most abundant ele

The issue of indirect land use changes (ILUC) caused by the promotion of transport biofuels has attracted considerable attention in recent years. In this paper, we reviewed the current literature on modelling work to estimate emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) caused by ILUC of biofuels. We also reviewed the development of ILUC policies in the EU. Our review of past modelling work revealed that m

This report covers the design process of a master thesis project with the aim of developing concepts for diffusers. Diffusers are objects that have the ability of spreading the sound energy evenly in a room. The diffusers were to be suitable for use as interior objects in “ordinary rooms” (schools, hospital wards, and offices). The diffusers should, through their aesthetic expression, attract arch

Lignocellulosic biorefineries are a cornerstone in the transition of our largely fossil-based society to a climate-society using renewable raw materials. In first generation of biorefineries the focus was on starch and sugar-based feedstock which lead to a competition with the food supply. In order to avoid this the second generation of biorefineries focus on lignocellulosic feedstocks such as woo

Movement and migration are fundamental parts of the life cycle of most organisms on Earth and occur at an astonishing range of spatial and temporal scales, from iconic pole-to-pole migrations of some birds to diel migrations of enormous amounts of millimeter-sized crustaceans through the waters of oceans and lakes. To move or not to move in a certain situation is a decision that is often taken by

We present experimental results of vacuum laser acceleration (VLA) of electrons using radially polarized laser pulses interacting with a plasma mirror. Tightly focused, radially polarized laser pulses have been proposed for electron acceleration because of their strong longitudinal electric field, making them ideal for VLA. However, experimental results have been limited until now because injectin
