Energy technology concerns supply, storage, transformation, transport and use of energy, often related to resource efficiency, operational availability and environmental impact. It is a multidisciplinary field that includes, e.g. physics, chemistry, biology, electronics, environmental engineering and systems analysis. It is strongly linked to many of our global society’s greatest challenges, particularly as regards development and the transition towards renewable, and sustainable energy systems.
Doctoral thesis provides important knowledge to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in cement and lime production.
Slag as a raw material provides more environmentally friendly cement – but how is the quality effected?
By introducing biofuels instead of fossil fuels in lime kilns carbon dioxide emissions have decreased.
