Catalytic enhancement of production of solar thermochemical fuels: opportunities and limitations
Juan M. Coronado, Alicia Bayón
Abstract
O dissociation in thermochemical cycles are discussed and then, the possibilities of improving the catalytic production of hydrocarbon fuels, basically methane, are also assessed. Finally, an outlook of the future opportunities of the catalytic promotion of thermochemical solar fuel productions is also provided.
