Comparison of CO2 dehydration processes after CO2 capture
(Master thesis, 2017)This study compares two conventional methods of CO2 dehydration processes after CO2 capture and its suitability of use. The methods are Triethylene Glycol (TEG) absorption and 3A Molecular sieve adsorption. Chapter 1 and ... -
Process simulation of plastic waste to environmental friendly fuel
(Master thesis, 2017)The amount of plastic waste that needs to be taken care of increases every year. While much of it is recycled, a substantial amount cannot be recycled and is landfilled. This master thesis has been focused on an alternative ... -
Diffusion of CO2 through polymer membranes
(Master thesis, 2017)Food industry use polymers as packaging to protect and maintain high quality and freshness of the product during distribution and storage. Polymers are permeable for gases like O2, CO2 and water vapor. Simulation models ... -
CFD Validation of transient subsea gas plume model
(Master thesis, 2017)Subsea gas blowouts are often a significant risk contributor to offshore installations. It is important to understand plume that is created by the blowout. Different plume models were investigated. CFD model in ANSYS Fluent ... -
Near-well simulations and modelling of oil production from reservoir
(Master thesis, 2017)One of the major challenges that the oil industry faces today is water breakthrough and high production of water from mature oil fields. Early water breakthrough can occur due to high frictional pressure drop in the well ... -
