Solar energy can be used via concentrated solar power (CSP) combined with thermochemical energy storage (TCES) for the conversion and storage of concentrated solar energy via reversible solid–gas reactions, thus enabling round the clock operation and continuous production. Research is on-going on efficient and economically attractive TCES systems at high temperatures with long-term durability and performance stability. Indeed, the cycling stability with reduced or no loss in capacity over many cycles of heat charge and discharge of the material is pursued. The main thermochemical systems currently investigated are encompassing metal oxide redox pairs (MOx/MOx 1), non-stoichiometric perovskites − (ABO3/ABO3 δ), alkaline earth metal carbonates and hydroxides (MCO3/MO, M(OH)2/MO with − M = Ca, Sr, Ba). The metal oxides/perovskites can operate in open loop with air as the heat transfer fluid, while carbonates and hydroxides generally require closed loop operation with storage of the fluid (H2O or CO2). Alternative sources of natural components are also attracting interest, such as abundant and low-cost ore minerals or recycling waste. For example, limestone and dolomite are being studied to provide for one of the most promising systems, CaCO3/CaO. Systems based on hydroxides are also progressing, although most of the recent works focused on Ca(OH)2/CaO. Mixed metal oxides and perovskites are also largely developed and attractive materials, thanks to the possible tuning of both their operating temperature and energy storage capacity. The shape of the material and its stabilization are critical to adapt the material for their integration in reactors, such as packed bed and fluidized bed reactors, and assure a smooth transition for commercial use and development. The recent advances in TCES systems since 2016 are reviewed, and their integration in solar processes for continuous operation is particularly emphasized.

Introduction The enthalpy of solid-gas chemical reactions stored in chemical materials can be used to generate heat when necessary via endothermal/exothermal reversible reactions. The stored and released heat can be used for example to run power cycles or more generally in industrial processes operating at high temperatures and thus requiring high amounts of energy that are usually provided by fossil fuel combustion. Thus, thermochemical energy storage (TCES) has potential to lower fossil fuel Energies 2020, 13, 5859; doi:10.3390/en13225859 www.mdpi.com/journal/energies Energies 2020, 13, x FOR PEER REVIEW 2 of 24 Energies 2020, 13, 5859 2 of 23 consumption and related greenhouse gas emissions [1].

To improve oxygen generation performance, we dissected and analyzed the incompletely reacted oxygen candles and thus proposed the concept of the hollow-structured oxygen candle. We calculated the surface area ratio and designed the mold for hollow-structured oxygen candles at a radius of 0, 5, 9, 12, 15.5, and 20 mm. ,e structural stability of the oxygen candles was tested by the loading experiment. ,e oxygen generation rate (OGR) and other properties were explored by combustion ex- periments. ,e composition of the oxygen candles and the residual solids after combustion were observed with scanning electron microscope (SEM). ,e results show that, with the increase of the hollow-structure radius (r), the stability of the hollow-structured oxygen candles gradually weakens, and the oxygen candles cannot be made when r is 20 mm.

  • Oxygen Carriers
    Oxygen Carriers Prof. Ramesh Chandra Department of Chemistry University of Delhi The main function of red blood cell is - Transfer of O2 from lungs to tissue. Transfer of CO2 from tissue to lungs. To accomplish this function red cells has Oxygen carriers. All aerobic forms of life depends on Oxygen Carriers. The transport and storage of Oxygen is extremely important physiological function and this is done by oxygen carriers. Various types of oxygen carriers occurring in living systems are - Oxygen Found in Metal Present Function carriers Hemoglobin All Mammals Fe(II) Carrier (Hb) Hemerythrin Various marine Fe(III) Carrier (Hr) invertebrates Myoglobin All Mammals Fe(II) Storage (Mb) Hemocyanin Arthropods & Cu(II) Carrier (Hc) Molluscs Dioxygen as Ligand Under appropriate circumstances, Dioxygen molecule become a ligand and this process is called OXYGENATION in which oxygen molecule retains its identity. 1 In ground state of oxygen molecule, it has two unpaired electrons in *(2py) and 1 *(2px) antibonding molecular orbitals. The degeneracy of -molecular orbital leads to Biradical Character of oxygen molecule. The binding of dioxygen by a transition metal involves electron transfer reaction from metal to dioxygen forming a coordinated superoxide ion. The coordinated superoxide ion binds to the metal in an angular as opposed to a perpendicular fashion and usually has a partial negative charge concentrated on the terminal oxygen atom. This superoxide ligand may be stabilized by an electrophile in the distal cavity, for example, the formation of a hydrogen bond. What are the Oxygen Carriers?? Oxygen carriers are compounds which can take up and release the oxygen reversibly.

  • Ceo2 Nanorods Supported M–Co Bimetallic Oxides (M=Fe, Ni, Cu) For
    CeO2 Nanorods Supported M–Co Bimetallic Oxides (M=Fe, Ni, Cu) for Catalytic CO and C3H8 Oxidation Zhongqi Liu,1 Junhao Li1 and Ruigang Wang1* 1Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487, United States ABSTRACT Supported bimetallic catalysts with rational compositions and structural design have attracted great interest, due to the tunable structural orientation (alloy or intermetallic compound and core-shell structure etc.), synergetic effects, and combined properties related to the presence of two individual metals. In this study, 10 wt% Fe-Co, Ni-Co and Cu-Co bimetallic oxides with 1:2 atomic ratio (FeCo2Ox, NiCo2Ox and CuCo2Ox) were deposited onto CeO2 nanorods (CeO2NR) via a hydrothermal-assisted precipitation-deposition method. The bimetallic synergism effects, surface structure configuration and the metal (oxide)-support interactions were investigated. The catalysts were characterized by means of powder XRD, TEM, EDX, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, BET surface area, H2-TPR, O2 pulse chemisorption and O2-TPD. All the CeO2NR supported bimetallic catalysts show considerable low-temperature CO oxidation performance. And the catalytic activity toward CO oxidation follows the order: 10 wt% CuCo2Ox/CeO2NR (T50= 95 ℃ and T90= 148 ℃) > 10 wt% FeCo2Ox/CeO2NR (T50= 129 ℃ and T90= 193 ℃) > 10 wt% NiCo2Ox/CeO2NR (T50= 147 ℃ and T90= 196 ℃). As for the catalytic oxidation of C3H8, all the designed catalysts show similar low-temperature performance, but the 10 wt% NiCo2Ox/CeO2NR catalyst exhibits the maximum C3H8 conversion above 330 ℃. In addition, we also demonstrate the important role of oxygen storage capacity (OSC) and the impact of different oxygen species (physi-/chemisorbed oxygen, and bulk lattice oxygen) on the oxidation of CO and light hydrocarbons.

This article describes a collaborative Furthermore, they employ scalable designs and research effort between the Department of Mechanical Engineering at MIT and Lincoln Laboratory to address require few moving parts. These advantages are the problems inherent in powering autonomous undersea leading to the imminent use of aluminum-fueled vehicles (AUV). systems in undersea applications. When operating below the sea surface, an AUV must navigate without access to the Global Positioning System (GPS) and with relatively short-range, limited- bandwidth communication links. These constraints make it difficult for operators to interact with the AUV, thereby placing a high demand on the autonomous behavior of the vehicle. Also, an AUV’s lack of access to air while it is submerged significantly limits energy storage options. Currently, most commercial AUV sys- tems use lithium-ion battery technology, which provides three days of endurance to a mid-sized AUV travel- ing at 3 knots. The goal of our research is to increase endurance by a factor of 10, expanding mission time for the same mid-sized AUV from 3 to 30 days.

Chemical-looping combustion is a method of combustion where CO2 is inherently separated from the non-condensable components in the flue gas without the need for an energy intensive air separation unit. This is because nitrogen from the combustion air is never mixed with the fuel.

While seeking the development of a soldering technology using pure indium, the major focus of this study is to assess the thermodynamics and kinetics of indium oxidation at various solder reflow environments that will ultimately provide a processing window for solder reflow and surface oxide cleaning. The stability of oxidation and reduction reactions for indium is presented in terms of several thermodynamic models.
