Published at Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering – Experimental investigation of photo-thermal catalytic reactor for the reverse water gas shift reaction under concentrated irradiation

Abstract An upscaled photo-thermal catalytic reactor for the heterogeneously catalysed reverse Water Gas Shift (rWGS) reaction is tested under simulated concentrated irradiation. The reactor is equipped with an aperture of 144 cm2 area covered by a quartz window, where it receives irradiation flux densities of up to 80 kW/m2 corresponding to an irradiation power input of 1 kW …
