SINTEF Byggforsk har sidan fasadesystem med puss på varmeisolasjon vart introdusert for norsk byggenæring, utført skadebefaringar og funksjonsprøvingar av slike system. Vi har gjennomgått alle rapportane frå dei siste 25 åra. Studien viser at utfordringane ligg i detaljane. Dei omfattande problema...
Understanding and utilizing structure–performance relationships in catalytic nanomaterials is the epitome of catalysis science. Knowledge at the atomic level can potentially allow rational design of more selective and energy-efficient catalytic materials. Fischer–Tropsch synthesis on cobalt is an...
Composite core-shell SiC-SiOx nanowires can be produced by heating quartz and SiC powders, with addition of Ar(g) or He(g). The two powders are mixed to create pellets, which will react to SiO(g) and CO(g) at elevated temperatures. The two gases will react on a colder surface, producing a web of...
During manufacturing of heat exchangers, the core material is cladded with a lower-melting point alloy, rolled into thin strips before being formed and finally brazed at an elevated temperature. After a period of natural aging, the final product is operated at two different temperatures depending on...
Carbon anodes, which are consumed in aluminum electrolysis, are fabricated in separate anode plants where coke and pitch are mixed and vibrocompacted to green anode blocks before being baked in anode baking furnaces. The chemical environment inside an anode baking furnace is found to play an...
Nonlinear model predictive control applications have been deployed on two large pilot plants for post combustion CO2 capture. The control objective is formulated in such a way that the CO2 capture ratio is controlled at a desired value, while the reboiler duty is formulated as an unreachable maximum...
Conclusions: The CustusX platform facilitates development of new and specialized applications. The toolkit supports the process and makes important extension and injection points available for customization....
