SOLAR SYNGAS PRODUCTION VIA ISOTHERMAL NONSTOICHIOMETRIC REDOX CYCLING OF CERIA WITH HEAT RECOVERY

摘要

A promising approach to harvest and store solar energy is the production of syngas by splitting CO2 and H2O via high-temperature thermochemical processes. Two-step metal-oxide redox cycles have been identified as an efficient path to avoid the high temperatures and the challenge of product gas separation associated with the direct thermolysis of H2O/CO2.
