Session: Advances in Alternative Thermochemical Cycles (2008 Annual Meeting)

Wednesday, November 19, 2008: 8:30 AM

Howe Room (Loews Philadelphia Hotel)

Description:

This session focuses on recent developments that advance hydrogen production by novel water splitting processes that reduce reliance on fossil fuels. The primary area for this session will be alternative thermochemical cycles, i.e. those that are not sulfur-based cycles. However, contributions on other methods including solar are encouraged.
