The awareness of the effect emissions have on the environment and climate has risen in the last decades. This has caused strict regulations of greenhouse gas emissions. Greenhouse gases cause global warming which may have devastating environmental effects. Most of the fuels commercially available today are fossil fuels. There are two major effects of using [...]

Sustainability Opportunities and Challenges of the Biofuels Industry
Liquid biofuels are being produced to displace fossil fuels for transportation, with bioethanol and biodiesel being the primary biofuels produced for this purpose in the world today. While there is consensus on the need for a sustainable biofuels industry, there is little consensus on how to proceed to avoid environmental and social degradation with global [...]
Renewable Electricity Options
Title: Principles-Based Comparison Framework for Renewable Electricity Options Electricity generation is both a major contributor to the root causes of environmental unsustainability and an energy source that will likely play an important role in the transition to a sustainable society. Because renewable sources of electricity generation are seen as sustainable as a group, there is [...]
Biomass- and coke oven gas based methanol production
This study considers production of methanol as a motor fuel, generated from coke oven gas at the steel mill SSAB Tunnplåt in Luleå. In addition, different systems with a biomass gasification plant included are considered. The produced synthesis gas is mixed with the coke oven gas to enhance the methanol production. Different technologies for production [...]
