Hybrid Solar-Fossil Fuel Power Generation
In this thesis, a literature review of hybrid solar-fossil fuel power generation is first given with an emphasis on system integration and evaluation. Hybrid systems are defined as those which use solar energy and fuel simultaneously, thus excluding the viable alternative of solar thermal plants which use fossil fuels as backup. The review is divided into three main sections: performance metric...
متن کاملMetalloporphyrin-modified semiconductors for solar fuel production.
We report a direct one-step method to chemically graft metalloporphyrins to a visible-light-absorbing gallium phosphide semiconductor with the aim of constructing an integrated photocathode for light activating chemical transformations that include capturing, converting, and storing solar energy as fuels. Structural characterization of the hybrid assemblies is achieved using surface-sensitive s...
متن کاملEffective Heat and Mass Transport Properties of Anisotropic Porous Ceria for Solar Thermochemical Fuel Generation
High-resolution X-ray computed tomography is employed to obtain the exact 3D geometrical configuration of porous anisotropic ceria applied in solar-driven thermochemical cycles for splitting H2O and CO2. The tomography data are, in turn, used in direct pore-level numerical simulations for determining the morphological and effective heat/mass transport properties of porous ceria, namely: porosit...
متن کاملLight Harvesting Proteins for Solar Fuel Generation in Bioengineered Photoelectrochemical Cells
The sun is the primary energy source of our planet and potentially can supply all societies with more than just their basic energy needs. Demand of electric energy can be satisfied with photovoltaics, however the global demand for fuels is even higher. The direct way to produce the solar fuel hydrogen is by water splitting in photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells, an artificial mimic of photosynthes...
متن کاملArtificial photosynthesis: Solar to fuel.
diff raction limit. However, the use of metamaterials in the design of hyperlenses meant losses through dissipation, and in some instances also a narrow operationfrequency range. In their study of acoustic lenses, Li and colleagues provide a slightly diff erent take on the original hyperlens idea by exploiting the diff erences between optical and acoustic waves. For acoustic waves, the wave equ...
