Abstract: The feasibility to produce hydrogen in the Sn–H2O/SnO2–C thermochemical water splitting redox process depends mainly on the efficiency of the tin hydrolysis step, which has not been studied ...

Abstract: A special setup, electrically heated, enabling the simulation of the process conditions encountered in a solar chemical reactor, is described. The setup allows us to study the thermal and ...

Abstract: The carboreduction in SnO2 to produce Sn and its hydrolysis with steam to generate hydrogen were studied. The SnO2/C/Sn system has several advantages compared with the most advanced cycle ...

Abstract: Tracking motions in current heliostats are usually performed in discrete steps, even though the motion of the sun is continuous. Aiming errors due to the discrete steps are often about 1 mrad ...

Abstract: Boron hydrolysis reaction can be used for onboard production of hydrogen. Boron is a promising candidate because of its low molecular weight and relatively high valence. The oxide product from ...
