FerroSilva, which started as a project at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, has developed a new process for producing fossil-free sponge iron. The plan is to start the first factory...
Nanoparticles are everywhere, but we don't know how many or how toxic they are to humans and nature. The nPETS project involves researchers from all over Europe who visit road tunnels and airports to ...
Companies with emissions affected by environmental taxes invest more in research and development. This is shown in a new international study by two Indek researchers.
Imagine a factory with a giant "power bank" charged with renewable energy when the availability is good and electricity prices low. To be discharged as heat when sun and wind are scarce and prices hig...
Slag from stainless-steel can substitute the use of lime to neutralise industrial acidic wastewater. This way part of the CO2 emissions derived by the extraction and processing of lime can be avoided,...
Hi Farazee Asif, why has the Department of Production Engineering (IIP) started a new master’s course on Circular Manufacturing Systems (CMS) – a course that you are responsible for?
Over 100 KTH students have worked on creating sustainable energy system proposals for Valencia’s technical university. Each year the students of Energy Management, an international masters programme, ...
KTH participates in a project that develops the future aircraft engine. "H2Jet" has received SEK 15 million from the Swedish Energy Agency to develop critical components for hydrogen propulsion with g...
Södertälje will deliver engineers and doctors who have sustainability in their DNA. With two new education programmes starting this autumn, KTH’s southernmost campus is now fully equipped to produce graduates who will be the workforce of the future.
KTH joins the HYBRIT Initiative for fossil free steel
During 2018, KTH’s Materials Science and Engineering department joined forces with LKAB, SSAB and Vattenfall in their efforts to reduce the environmental impact of steel production. The initiative is called HYBRIT and is the first of its kind. If the project succeeds, it will contribute to Sweden’s national climate goal – to be fossil-free by 2045.
KTH Live-In Lab is a platform of multiple testbeds with the purpose of speeding up the pace of innovation for ‘green’ tech in housing and construction. The lab was completed during the summer of 2018 and four students have now spent half a year in the test apartments, being part of R&D in fields like indoor air quality and building automation systems.
Our Department of Energy Technology (EGI) is involved in several international projects financed by the UN and the World Bank. They aim to ensure access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy for all.
