Intermittent nature of solar energy and solution strategies for steam methane reforming reaction powered by concentrated solar energy over Ni/mullite and Pd/CeO2/mullite catalysts were demonstrated. The solar concentration was achieved using a parabolic mirror with a 70 cm, delivering concentrated solar flux onto a focal area that is approximately 3 cm in diameter. The solar field tests conducted on monolithic catalyst support structures were compared with the laboratory scale measurements on powdered catalysts. Despite the fluctuations in solar irradiation, CH4 conversions higher than 90% could be obtained. Coke deposition was observed over the 15%Ni/Mullite monolith. On the 1%Pd/20%CeO2/Mullite monolith, the oxidative nature of the catalyst resulted in oxidation reactions with local temperatures exceeding 1700 degrees C, inferred through the melting point of mullite. Numerical simulations revealed temperature gradients as large as 500 degrees C, over the refractory monoliths. (C) 2019 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Chemical and structural optimization of ZnCl2 activated carbons via high temperature CO2 treatment for EDLC applications
Köse, Kadir Özgün; Aydınol, Mehmet Kadri (Elsevier BV, 2018-10-04)
Development of biomass based activated carbon materials for electrical double layer capacitor (EDLC) usage has gained attention as a result of requesting efficient and low cost energy storage device production. In this study, pine cone based activated carbons were produced with a combined chemical and physical activation route. ZnCl2 and CO2 were used for chemical and physical activation of the material, respectively. Activation parameters are adjusted to give different chemical and textural characteristics...
Enhancement of hydrogen storage capacity of multi-walled carbon nanotubes with palladium doping prepared through supercritical CO2 deposition method
ERÜNAL, EBRU; Ulusal, Fatma; ASLAN, MUSTAFA YASİN; GÜZEL, BİLGEHAN; Üner, Deniz (Elsevier BV, 2018-06-07)
Pd doped Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes were prepared via supercritical carbon dioxide deposition method in order to enhance the hydrogen uptake capacity of carbon nanotubes at ambient conditions. A new bipyridyl precursor that enables reduction at moderate conditions was used during preparation of the sample. Both XRD analyses and TEM images confirmed that average Pd nanoparticle size distribution was around 10 nm. Hydrogen adsorption and desorption experiments at room temperature with very low pressures (0...
Concentrated Solar Power Harvesting Using Self-powered, Wireless, Thin-profile, Lightweight Solar Tiles
Ardanuc, Serhan M.; Lal, Amit; Jones, Samuel C. (ASME International, 2011-08-01)
This paper presents a modular and scalable approach to concentrated solar power (CSP) harvesting by using low-profile, light-weight, sun-tracking, millimeter-to-centimeter-scale mirror arrays that can be wirelessly controlled to reflect the incident solar energy to a central receiver. Conventional, utility-scale CSP plants use large-area heliostats, parabolic troughs, or dish collectors that are not only heavy and bulky, but also require significant labor for installation and maintenance infrastructure. Fur...
A METHOD FOR TECHNICAL ECONOMIC-ANALYSIS OF SOLAR HEATING-SYSTEMS
TASDEMIROGLU, E; ARINC, F (Elsevier BV, 1988-01-01)
The necessity for technical-economic analysis of solar energy systems is obvious when assessing their feasibility vis-á-vis conventional alternative systems. Optimum magnitudes of the installation parameters should be defined under the required economic conditions. In this study, the optimization procedure was chosen so as to maximize the total accumulated saving throughout the economic lifetime of the system. The annual solar heating fraction of the system is assessed using the f-chart method which can be ...
Hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane using cobalt-nickel-phosphorus (Co-Ni-P) catalyst supported on Pd-activated TiO2 by electroless deposition
Rakap, Murat; Kalu, Egwu Eric; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2011-01-01)
Catalytically active, low-cost, and reusable transition metal catalysts are desired to develop on-demand hydrogen generation system for practical onboard applications. By using electroless deposition method, we have prepared the Pd-activated TiO2-supported Co-Ni-P ternary alloy catalyst (Co-Ni-P/Pd-TiO2) that can effectively promote the hydrogen release from ammonia-borane aqueous solution. Co-Ni-P/Pd-TiO2 catalysts are stable enough to be isolated as solid materials and characterized by XRD, SEM, and EDX. ...
