Solar-Concentrating Photovoltaic Mirrors Arizona State University will develop a curved mirror made of solar cells to collect both direct and diffuse sunlight for conversion to electricity and heat. The carbon dioxide expands to low pressure and extremely cold temperatures to generate electricity from stored electrical and heat energy.

Researchers at Stanford University have devised a new strategy for using CO 2 in the synthesis of multi-carbon compounds. CO 2 reacts readily with carbon-centered nucleophiles—a chemical intermediate species that donates an electron pair to an electrophile to form a chemical bond in relation to a reaction.

“With the solar that you use every day of the year, you put that into high-temperature, short-term storage in the form of thermal oil or molten salt or any of the existing CSP thermal-storage technologies.” During winter, he adds, they can pull up the energy and generate zero-carbon electricity based on the demand curve.

High temperature heat for biomass gasification is obtained from a molten-salt system in a solar concentrating tower. For comparison, they also modeled the production of methanol using only biomass as a fuel and also using coal as source of both carbon and energy. Energy conversion efficiency (%).

The University of California, San Diego, seeks to address this issue by developing a low-atomic-number renewable wall for fusion devices that contains a slurry composed of carbon, ceramics, and a volatile binder. Tritium recovery is achieved by outgassing the recovered carbon pebbles. Savannah River National Laboratory.

One-pot electrolytic process produces H 2 and solid carbon from water and CO 2. In this study, they focused on the electrolysis component for STEP fuel, producing hydrogen and graphitic carbon from water and carbon dioxide. The one-pot co-synthesis of hydrogen and carbon and C was carried using a new Li 1.6
