Wanja Thelin

Wanja Thelin is a Lecturer at Linnaeus University, affiliated with the Faculty of Technology and the Department of Built Environment and Energy Technology. They specialize in research related to biomass combustion systems, flue gas treatment, and thermal energy recovery technologies.

Thelin's research program focuses on purification and heat recovery in flue gases from biomass combustion. Their work integrates computational modeling with practical experimentation:

• Development of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation models
• Practical measurements at commercial plants and laboratory scale
• Optimization of wet scrubber systems for particle removal
• Heat recovery mechanisms in centrifugal condensation systems
• Techno-economic analysis of emission reduction solutions

Academically, Thelin teaches Chemical Technology in the Energy and Environment program (Bachelor of Science in Engineering) and serves as laboratory supervisor for Chemistry 2 in the Foundation Year. Their current research project "Development of an innovative centrifugal condensation scrubber" aims to optimize particulate emission reduction through advanced scrubber technology. While the publication record appears limited in the available information, their 2024 conference paper demonstrates active contribution to biomass combustion research.
