Solar integrated pressurized high temperature electrolysis (SOPHIA)

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2017,

Hydrogen and other fuels are expected to play a key role as energy carrier for the transport sector and as energy buffer for the integration of large amounts of renewable energy into the grid. Therefore the development of carbon lean technologies producing hydrogen at reasonable price from renewable or low CO2 emitting sources like nuclear is of utmost importance. It is the case of water electroly ...

Carbon Reduction by Auxiliary Firing TEchniques for glass Melter (CRAFTEM)

Start date: May 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

Each year, the EU’s Primary glass melters producing container and flat glass consume some 150 PJ of energy and emit some 10 Gigatonnes of fuel related CO2. Most of the EU’s large glass melting furnaces already employ reversing regenerators to achieve a thermal efficiency of 50% or more, a very good figure for a process operating at about 1600˚C. The industry is facing conflicting challenges to red ...
