1 Research activities within the co-operation between Chalmers University of Technology and Tsinghua University Dr. Dongmei Zhao Project leader and coordinator GMV Chalmers University of Technology

2 How did the Chinese cooperation start? (GMV- Center for Environment and Sustainibility) Main persons initiated the Co-operation: GMV director: Katarina Gårdfeldt, Former director: Oliver Lindqvist Jörgen Sjöberg, PhD Chief Development Officer Jiane Zuo, Professor, Vice Dean, School of Environment, Tsinghua

3 Prof. Bo Leckner Prof. Jiming HAO Other Scientists involved 2008, Sweden The 2 nd Sino-Sweden Workshop between Tsinghua University and Chalmers University of Technology on Biofuels, Biomass, Urban futures and Sustainable urban water, held at Chalmers November 21, Prof. Greg Morrison Prof. Britt-Marie Steenari Associate Prof. Lars-Erik Åmand Prof. Kebin He Prof. Xiliang ZHANG Prof. Kaijun WANG, Dr. Dongmei Zhao

4 2009, Beijing CHALMERS TSINGHUA UNIVERSITY The 3rd Sino-Sweden Workshop on Environment and Transportation October 15-16, 2009, held at Tsinghua, Beijing Topic 1: Municipal Solid Waste Incineration and Cocombustion----Technology and Industrial Utilization Topic 2: Sustainable Transportation and Green Public Transport

5 2010 Co-operation project at Chalmers research boiler Project: Co-combustion of wood chips + waste pellets (RDF) + municipal sewage sludge Project leader: Lars-Erik Åmand, Department of Energy and Environment Johannes, Jessica, and the operators at Akademiska Hus running the tests at Chalmers research boiler Dongmei Zhao, monitoring the flue gas Hg. From Tsinghua University: Yanguo Zhang, Aihong Meng, Rongrong Cai

6 The cooperation was approved and appreciated by prof. Henrik Thunman, head of Energy conversion Tsinghua master student Cai, Rongrong together with Dongmei Zhao was introduced to Swedish education and research minister Jan Björklund when he was visiting Chalmers gasification center in 2010.

7 Some of the results have been presented at the 21 st FBC conference, Italy Measured emissions, Hg, Cd (µg/m n 6%O2,dry) Hg measured Cd measured Cd calc. max Hg calc. max EU-limit: Hg,Cd+Tl Calc. max emissions, Hg, Cd (µg/m n 6%O2,dry) % dry matter of SRF and SRF+MSS EMISSIONS OF MERCURY AND CADMIUM WHEN CO FIRING MUNICIPAL SEWAGE SLUDGE AND/OR WASTE PELLETS WITH BIOMASS IN A CFB BOILER D.
