| Abstract: Reactors and methods for solar thermochemical reactions are disclosed.
The reactors and methods include a cascade of reduction chambers at
successively lower pressures that leads to over an order of magnitude
pressure decrease compared to a single-chambered design. The resulting
efficiency gains are substantial, and represent an important step toward
practical and efficient solar fuel production on a large scale. |
