CARDOTHERMIC DISSOCIATION OF ZINC OXIDE TO PRODUCE HYDROGEN UNDER CONCENTRATED SOLAR RADIATION
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstrak:
Solar 2-step Zn/ZnO redox reactions to decompose H2O and CO2 have the potential to achieve high solar energy-to-fuel efficiency and ultimately economic competitiveness. It consists of: (1) endothermic dissociation of ZnO into Zn and O2 by concentrated solar energy and (2) subsequent exothermic reaction of Zn with H2O/CO2 to H2/CO (called mixed syngas) and initial ZnO; the second is processed into the first stage. In this paper, several aspects of solar reactor technology to realize the first stage of the redox cycle are investigated experimentally and numerically.
