Thermochemical conversion of H2O and CO2 into solar fuels via metal oxide based redox reaction
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports the thermodynamic analysis of the production of solar syngas (a mixture of H2 and CO with molar ratio equal to 2: 1) via ZnO/Zn based thermochemical H2O and/or CO2 splitting redox reactions. Solar syngas ...
Solar Fuel production via GeO2/Geo thermochemical H2O and CO2 splitting cycle
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports the thermodynamic feasibility of the production of solar fuel via GeO2/GeO Thermochemical H2O and CO2 Splitting Cycle. This is a two-step process in which the first step is solar thermal dissociation of ...
