This white paper presents a new set of guidelines developed to address important carbon capture and storage (CCS) cost issues in three areas. The first area of study tackles the establishment of improved guidelines for cost evaluation of advanced low-carbon technology (such as a new CO₂ capture process...

...included to estimate the viscosity limits and the time window for dispersant use. The laboratory data were used as input to the SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM) for weathering predictions from a surface release of Tyrving at sea at 5 and 15 °C, reflecting winter and summer conditions. The weathering properties...

...construction, Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE), automotive, aquaculture and fisheries, and packaging. The plastic material streams with the highest volume in Norway are EPS in the construction sector, PP in the EEE and automotive sectors, PE in the aquaculture and fisheries sector, and LDPE in the packaging...

A standardized bench-scale and meso-scale flume testing weathering study has been conducted on Dugong crude oil at 13 °C. The dispersibility testing on Dugong was included to estimate the viscosity limits and time window for dispersant use. The laboratory data were used as input to the SINTEF Oil Weathering...

...standardized weathering study has been conducted on SF Nord Brent (E-2&E- 3) and Sygna Brent (N-1&N-2) crude oils at 13 °C. Dispersibility testing included the dispersant Dasic Slickgone NS to estimate the viscosity limits and time window for dispersant use. The SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM) was...

Rehabilitering med utvendige treelementer er en ny og effektiv måte å oppgradere bygninger på. Slik rehabilitering kan gjennomføres uten at beboere behøver å flytte og med kort byggetid. Energieffektiviteten kan bli svært gunstig hvis man samtidig installerer balansert ventilasjon med...

The report Industrielle muligheter og arbeidsplasser ved storskala CO₂-håndtering i Norge, (Industrial opportunities and employment prospects in large-scale CO₂ management in Norway) was written by SINTEF with the assistance of NTNU on behalf of the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise (NHO), the ...

The development and growing integration of power markets and the rapid expansion of new renewable energy sources (RES) with less predictable output, will increase the need for balancing services in the near future. This is the background for the Competence Building (KMB) project “Balance Management”...

...phosphate and magnesium hydroxy carbonate cements. Another less studied concept, as discussed in this paper, is acid activation of rocks to produce alternative binders. Although these systems cannot compete yet with ordinary Portland cement, they might be applicable for certain specialised areas and thus...

...performance indicators (KPI) and assessment criteria for the Research Centre on Zero Emission Neighbourhoods in Smart Cities (ZEN Research Centre). This third version of the ZEN definition builds upon previous versions of the ZEN definition. The GHG emissions (GHG), energy (ENE) and power (POW) categories...

...thermal energy storage and smart control systems is provided. Heat pumps are devices that transfer thermal energy from low-temperature to high-temperature areas, consuming a small amount of electricity in the process. Their working principles, heat sources, working fluids, and applications are discussed...

Franzefoss Minerals, Statkraft Varme, Elkem Thamshavn, Wacker Holla Metall, Equinor Tjelbergodden and SINTEF. CO₂ emissions from the industries in the project are around 1.5 Mt/year. Power consumption for capturing and liquefying 90% of this CO₂ for ship transport is estimated at around 30 MWe (220 GWh annual...

...experts to participate as evaluators.• Cooperative usability testing is a combined empirical and analytical method, designed to allow the participating user to reflect systematically on their experience with the test and the tested solution. The two evaluation methods were investigated on basis of their application...

...project Development and Application of Validated Geophysical Ocean Wave Products from ENVISAT ASAR and RA-2 Instruments (EnviWave), contract no. EVG1-CT-2001-00051. It describes the use and some applications of a database of co-located buoy, ASAR, and WAM directional wave spectra, and complex Envisat imagettes...

This case study aims to illustrate challenges and possible measures in a future Norwegian distribution grid in 2030-40. Based on official goals by the Norwegian government and the EU to decarbonize transport and increase the amount of distributed renewable energy production, we consider a future scenario...

D1.2 (i.e. Logistics and cold chain management task) of WP1 in the Revalue project. The results mentioned in this report have been derived from the proceedings communicated to the 25th IIR International Congress of Refrigeration, Montreal & 6th IIR Conference on Sustainability and the Cold Chain, Nantes...

...skirts, modified plate gears and a new bottom gear made with semi-circular profiles. In some cases the different types of gear are combined, i.e. with one type of gear in the side sections and another type in the center section. Tension in lower sweeps, headline, fishing line and gear chain was measured,...

A weathering study has been conducted on the Kvitebjørn condensate. This study is based on a small-sea le laboratory testing at 13 °C. The SINTEF Oil Weathering Model (OWM) was used to predict the weathering properties of the Kvitebjørn condensate if spilled on the sea surface. The weathering...

...produced. This excavated rock material is utilized to a varying extent for road-, railway- and concrete purposes, but significant amounts are used as deposits on land, in fjords or lakes. For both economic and environmental reasons there is a great potential in increasing the utilization of excavated...
