RISDesign Studies for a Solar Reactor Based on a Simple Radiative Heat Exchange Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A high-temperature solar chemical reactor for the processing of solids is scaled up from a laboratory scale (5kW concentrated solar power input) to a pilot scale (200kW). The chosen design ...
Solar Carbothermic Reduction of ZnO in a Two-Cavity Reactor: Laboratory Experiments for a Reactor Scale-Up
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solar energy can be stored chemically by using concentrated solar irradiation as an energy source for carbothermic ZnO reduction. The produced Zn might be used for the production of electricity ...
Experimental Investigation of the Solar Carbothermic Reduction of ZnO Using a Two-cavity Solar Reactor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Zinc production by solar carbothermic reduction of ZnO offers a CO2 emission reduction by a factor of 5 vis-à-vis the conventional fossil-fuel-based electrolytic or Imperial Smelting processes. ...
A 300kW Solar Chemical Pilot Plant for the Carbothermic Production of Zinc
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the framework of the EU-project SOLZINC, a 300-kW solar chemical pilot plant for the production of zinc by carbothermic reduction of ZnO was experimentally demonstrated in a beam-down solar ...
