TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the thermodynamics, kinetics and cycling stability of SiO2-doped CaCO3 by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the effect of sensible heat on storage efficiency in the system of thermochemical energy storage based on calcium looping process and defined three storage efficiencies in the charging process, discharging process, and total system.

TL;DR: It is important and urgent to overcome the intermittent nature of solar energy as a green substitute for fossil-based electricity as mentioned in this paper, and it is possible to build concentrated solar power plants with thermochemical energy storage.

TL;DR: In this article, a CSP-CaL plant indirectly integrated with the recompression supercritical CO2 Brayton cycle to realize carbonation under atmospheric pressure is proposed, which can achieve storage exergy efficiency in the range of 8.26-16.34%.

TL;DR: In this article, a spiral coil reactor based on combination of pneumatic transmission and secondary flow for thermochemical energy storage is proposed, where the CaCO3/CaO is selected as reaction medium.
