Solar Fuel: Sungas Instead of Syngas: Efficient Coproduction of CO and H₂ with a Single Beam of Sunlight (Adv. Sci. 11/2015)

Abstract

In article 1500260, S. Licht and co‐workers demonstrate the efficient coproduction of CO and H₂, using a single beam of sunlight in electrolysis of molten carbonate and hydroxide. The process is driven by a single concentrator photovoltaic, which simultaneously drives the separate electrolysis processes. The process allows carbon capture without first concentrating atmospheric CO₂.
