Fluoride Adsorption On Iron Hydroxide Oxide Pricipitates During Zinc Prodcuction
Soundaranathan, Mithushan (Master thesis, 2017)In the zinc smelters at Boliden Odda, the zinc is extracted from the purified zinc sulphate solution by electrowinning. If the purified zinc sulphate contains more than 35 mg/L fluoride, the extracted zinc cannot be removed ... -
FSC hollow fibre membranes - Optimization of coating and drying procedures
Ruud, Anniken Amos (Master thesis, 2016)Composite hollow fibre membranes were prepared by coating PVAm and PDMS, on a PSf support. Bundles consisting of 100 fibres were placed in PVC tubes with diameter 0.6cm, which gave a packing density of 30,3%. The bundles ... -
Green River Kerogen Product Distribution Analysis: The Influence of Pyrolysis and Catalytic Reactions with Hydrogen-Donor Solvent
Meyer, Marthe (Master thesis, 2016)The increase in global energy consumption of petroleum, which is estimated to even surge to ca. 37% by 2035, requires substitutes from other unconventional sources of oil and gas. Utilization of oil shale by technology and ... -
Health-Aware Control of a Subsea Compression System
Gjøby, Julie Marie (Master thesis, 2018)Subsea processing technology is enabling production from oil and gas fields with larger water depths, longer tie-back distances and harsher climate conditions. Although moving production and processing facilities to the ... -
Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of simulated bio oil to fuel on bimetallic transition metal phosphides
Sundli, Eline Nesdal (Master thesis, 2018)Environmental concerns and depleting availability of fossil resources, are raising interest regarding energy production from renewable sources. Biomass has the potential for being a CO2 neutral feedstock for fuel production. ... -
Hydrolysis of Cellulose using Hybrid Catalysts
Kovacic, David (Master thesis, 2016)Catalyst plays an important role in biomass conversion. The present work will deal with preparation, characterization and application in the cellulose conversion to chemicals. The work will focus on the functionalization ... -
Implementation and evaluation of a new solution approach for semidefinite programming
Lund, Marlene Louise (Master thesis, 2017)The main objective of this thesis was to perform initial studies on a new approach for solving semidefinite programs. In this solution method, a nonsmooth representation of the optimality conditions of semidefinite programs ... -
INJECTION OF SYNTHETIC PRODUCED WATER INTO POROUS MEDIA - A study of transport of dispersed components through simulated reservoir packs
Joseph, Prajin (Master thesis, 2018)Produced water(PW) contributes to the largest volume byproduct from the oil production industry. The presence of hazardous chemicals makes the handling of PW an important and costly operation. Methods such as discharge ... -
Investigations of PdAu membranes and model systems for production of pure hydrogen
Sørvik, Linn Cecilie (Master thesis, 2015)Hydrogen production from carbon-containing energy sources can capture the CO2 on site, and therefore reduce the contribution to global warming. The only emission when energy is produced through a fuel cell is H2O. Another ... -
