Solar-to-Fuel Energy Conversion Analysis of Solarised Mixed Reforming of Methane
Abstract An energetic upgrade factor has been defined as the ratio of the lower heating value (LHV) of the syngas (H2 plus CO) produced plus unreacted feedstock to that of the feedstock processed. It is used to evaluate the thermal performance of...

Effects of particle size on CO2 reduction and discharge characteristics in a packed bed plasma reactor
Abstract Current understanding of the behaviour of plasma discharges within packed bed reactors (PBRs) is very poor, and the effects of many of the parameters that can be varied are still unknown. This article investigates the effects of particle...
