Abstract This study investigates the dry reforming of methane (DRM) using solar energy to produce syngas at a pilot-scale level. A combined waste gas stream from a prominent South African petrochemical complex is considered as the system feed. A cryogenic distillation...
Source; Weixin Qinghai has set tariff policy for concentrated solar projects at 0.55 yuan/kWh (in USD; 7.5 cents/kWh) This has effectively settled ongoing debates over solar thermal power pricing, marking a milestone in the industry. The 0.55 yuan/kWh tariff for pure...
China’s largest concentrated solar-thermal power project in northwestern Xinjiang connects to State Grid Source: Global Times The 1-million-kilowatt integrated concentrated solar-thermal power (CSP) and photovoltaic (PV) energy demonstration project in Hami, in...
ETH-Zurich, IMDEA Energy, and Synhelion have demonstrated solar syngas production in a solar tower with high efficiency and selectivity Renewable energy - for electricity - can now easily and cheaply replace fossil fuels for electricity, however producing liquid...
Abstract: Biomass gasification driven by solar energy is a potential route for the syngas production as well as storage of unsteady solar energy. However, the influences of the non-homogeneous effects caused by unidirectional concentrated solar radiation on the...
Abstract: Solar energy capture and storage using falling solid particles are being explored for cost-effective next generation concentrating solar power systems. A critical consideration in this technology is the abrasion wear caused by the sliding of the particles...
Abstract: A high-temperature stable solar absorber is crucial for next-generation (Gen3) concentrating solar power (CSP) plants, to enable high temperature operation, maximize power generation efficiency, and thereby reduce the levelized cost of energy. This study...
To lower the costs of solar fuels and thermal energy storage, concentrated solar thermal (CST) researchers are working on increasing solar thermochemistry's performance and redox cycle-ability. Researchers at Khalifa University of Science and Technology have designed...
Government-funded research into decarbonizing heavy industry using concentrated solar thermal (CST) yields results with the world’s first spin-off based on a new kind of high temperature solar receiver - the falling particle receiver. Because of the simplicity and...
Abstract: Bauxite-based proppants, commonly used in the fracking industry, are also employed in solid particle receiver types of Concentrated Solar Thermal (CST) technologies. However, fracking has been banned in many countries due to its environmental impact, leading...
US solar steam projects developer GlassPoint on Tuesday announced it is advancing plans to build the world’s largest industrial solar thermal project in Saudi Arabia, unveiling the next phase of development for the GlassPoint Ma'aden Technology Showcase (GMTS)....
Two international concentrated solar researchers have demonstrated using concentrated solar heat to produce green iron and syngas from renewable biomass, using no-oxygen conversion in a gasifier for a carbon-free process. In their paper, Green iron and syngas...
In concentrated solar thermal (CST) energy collection using parabolic trough-shaped mirrors, the heat from the sun is captured by aiming its reflection from a parabolic trough-shaped mirror onto a thin tube at its central focal point. This thin tube contains a fluid...
Abstract: Molten salt thermal energy storage (TES) tanks ensure steady power output of concentrating solar power (CSP) plants; however, recent tank failures have highlighted the need for further analysis. Current studies primarily focus on analyzing the molten salt...
