Scania is one of the leading European manufacturers of heavy-duty vehicles. The 2024 global sales were 96'400 trucks, 11'200 engines and 5'600 buses, with 45 % of the total outside Europe. When it comes to global warming, we already contribute to the necessary reduction of fossil CO2 emissions with a focus on battery-electric trucks and buses plus the necessary charging infrastructure.

Background:

According to EU regulation 2019/1242, from 2019 to 2030, 2035 and 2040 the average tailpipe-CO2 of new truck sales shall be reduced by 43, 64 and 90 %. The plan is to reach this reduction by quickly ramping up the sales of battery-electric vehicles (BEV) and the corresponding charging infrastructure. Most truck charging pools need a new connection to the Medium Voltage (MV) grid. During a preceding MSc project it was found that the waiting time only for this MV grid connection spans from 1 to 4 years. To be able to use the charging pools while waiting for the grid connection, gensets shall serve as intermediate electricity source. And to maximise the climate-positive effect, these gensets shall run on biofuels and apply Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), what results in Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR).

Task:

In this M.Sc. thesis project (30 hp) for one or two students, a techno-economic assessment of a Carbon Capture Container (CCC) downstream a genset shall be conducted. The task is to (i) Design a CO2 removal unit, working by CO2-absorption into a liquid solvent and subsequent stripping (ii) Utilise the genset's waste heat from exhaust and coolant to supply the reboiler (iii) Size the heat exchangers to bring the fluid streams to the right temperatures (iv) Choose a compressor and chiller for CO2-liquefaction (v) Dimension the system to fit into one or two 45 foot containers (vi) Calculate the cost of the CCC, from exhaust inlet to CO2 outlet (vii) Calculate the additional energy consumption of the CCC. From previous MSc projects, results on energy-efficient solvent regeneration are available. In parallel MSc projects, technology and cost of biofuel supply will be elaborated.

Education & organisation:

Studies: Chemical Engineering

Is a must: Knowledge of separation processes, engineering economics.

Is a bonus: Knowledge of carbon capture

Number of students: One or two.

Start of work: Mon,
