Design and analysis of a thermolysis reactor for scaled-up copper-chlorine hydrogen production cycle
Wajda, Tomasz (2017-12-01)Alternative hydrogen production methods are being explored with the goal of finding efficient and economical process. The copper-chlorine (Cu-Cl) cycle for hydrogen production has been the focus of the Clean Energy ... -
Evaporative drying of cupric-chloride droplets in a thermo-chemical cycle of hydrogen production
Marin, Gabriel (2008-04-01)This thesis develops analytical and numerical solutions that predict behavior of Cupric-Chloride droplets undergoing spraying and drying processes. Cupric-Chloride (CuCl2) is present as molten salt and slurry within the ... -
Investigation and assessment of the integrated copper chlorine cycle for hydrogen production with a new separation process
Razi, Faran (2021-08-01)The production of hydrogen as a clean fuel is anticipated to have a major impact on the development of the environmentally benign generation of energy. At present, a significant portion of hydrogen generation is based on ... -
Kinetics and transport phenomena in the chemical decomposition of copper oxychloride in the thermochemical Cu-CI Cycle
Marin, Gabriel D. (2012-04-01)The thermochemical copper-chlorine (Cu-Cl) cycle for hydrogen production includes three chemical reactions of hydrolysis, decomposition and electrolysis. The decomposition of copper oxychloride establishes the high-temperature ... -
A study of a novel design for efficient hydrolysis reactor for the Cu-Cl thermochemical hydrogen production cycle
Finney, Leonard I. (2021-06-01)In this thesis, methods to optimize the Hydrolysis reactor for the Cu-Cl thermochemical Hydrogen production cycle were investigated. A simplified Hydrolysis reactor using simple off-the-shelf components was tested and found ...
