Topic:
Mineral carbonation of alkaline waste materials
Biomass incineration residues may be used for CO2 capture and storage by carbonation of waste-borne metal hydroxides. Moist carbonation of these ashes can be performed under mild conditions (ambient pressure and temperature) and accelerated by using a CO2-rich gas. The process requires the wetting...Read more

Utilization of paraffin wax as phase change material for solar thermal energy storage
(Corresponding) Shalaby S., Kabeel A., Fleafl A.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
In this work, a thermal energy storage system based paraffin wax as phase change material (PCM) was designed, constructed and tested when it was integrated with a solar water heater (SWH). For the purpose of comparison, the SWH was also tested when water was used as a storage medium. The system was...Read more
