Multi-Scale Modelling of a Solar Reactor for the High-Temperature Step of a Sulphur-Iodine-Based Water Splitting Cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The 3-step sulphur-iodine-based thermochemical cycle for splitting water is considered. The high temperature step of the closed-material cycle consists of evaporation, decomposition, and reduction of sulphuric acid to SO2 using concentrated solar process
