Abstract: Concentrating solar power systems are crucial for capturing solar energy. However, the intermittent nature of sunlight necessitates effective energy storage solutions. Ammonia-based thermochemical energy storage systems have emerged as a promising option, utilizing solar energy to dissociate ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen gas. This gaseous mixture is then employed for exothermic ammonia synthesis, releasing …

Carbon sequestration in mining waste over the past 50 years can be seen at BPH Group’s Australian nickel mine at Mt Keith. The mineral wastes have weathered and become bluer and then whiter, indicating the changed chemical composition as it sequesters CO2. Australian researchers propose using solar power to capture and store carbon in mining …
