Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.
  • You cannot copy text or images from the file.
  • You cannot edit the file.

Printing the thesis

  • You can print the thesis for your personal study or research use.
  • Aalto University students and staff members may print black-and-white prints on the PrintingPoint devices when using the computer with personal Aalto username and password. Color printing is possible using the printer u90203-psc3, which is located near the customer service. Color printing is subject to a charge to Aalto University students and staff members.
  • Other customers can use the printer u90203-psc3. All printing is subject to a charge to non-University members.

Abstract (eng): Biofuels production seems the better alternative to fuels consumption realized from non-renewable sources.
Black liquor obtained during the pulping is a good resource, because contain a large amount of organic matter.
Black liquor can be pre-treated in a partial wet oxidation process to obtain carboxylic salts.
These salts can be treated to produce biofuels, such as syngas and methane.

This final project is a research of different ways to obtain carboxylic salts, for example from black liquor treatment.
Subsequent conversion process of carboxylic acid salts is focus in thermal decomposition process and the kinetic solid reaction study, from an experimental thermo gravimetric curve.

Results comparison with literature is done to validate the methods used in this study.
Kinetic triplet has been further used to predict the residence time needed in a reactor to obtain 40% conversion of the sample at 450°C and 1 bar.
Thermal decomposition process has been simulated in Aspen Plus to study the energy requirements and production in the process.
