An Investigation into the Production of Longer Hydrocarbons, Synthesis Gas, and Ammonia via a Nonthermal Plasma Microreactor

Creator:: Reddick, Ian T.
Abstract:: Nonthermal electrical plasmas can allow energy intensive reactions to occur without the use of high operating temperatures or pressures. This is because the collisions of electrons accelerated through an electric field with molecules is the cause of reactions as opposed to thermal collisions between molecules. In this study, the production...

Reactive Phase Change Materials for Enhanced Thermal Energy Storage

Creator:: Drake, Griffin S.
Abstract:: Effective storage and release of low-to-moderate temperature thermal energy (e.g. solar thermal or geothermal) could be transformational for applications such as space heating/cooling, domestic hot water, or off-grid cooking. Good candidates for thermal energy storage in this temperature range include latent heat storage (LHS) systems and thermochemical energy storage (TCES)...

Particle Movement in a multi-chamber fluidized bed

Creator:: Tan, Chuan Hao
Abstract:: The goal of this project is to better characterize particle movement in a multi-channel fluidized bed. Fluidized beds are commonly used for heat transfer with the rapid fluidization and homogeneous heat distribution. By characterizing this particle flow, it would allow for an improved understanding of the heat transfer mechanisms within...

Incorporation of polymorphic spacers to inhibit sintering of SrO/SrCO3 for thermochemical energy storage

Creator:: Tran, Justin T
Abstract:: Global energy needs are continuously increasing while fossil fuels remain an uncertain resource. With a growing population and demand for energy, alternative energy sources are being pursued to power the future. Fossil fuels are an unsustainable resource that brings along problems of climate change and atmospheric pollution. Concentrated solar power...

Ultraviolet photolysis of acetaminophen in a 3D printed continuous flow reactor

Creator:: Goetze, John M.
Abstract:: Finding renewable sources of agricultural fertilizer will be necessary to ensure a stable food supply for future generations. Phosphorus is of particular concern, since mining phosphate rock is the main source and reserves are forecasted to deplete in the next 50 – 200 years. Human urine contains substantial amounts of...

Power Generation via a Thermoelectric Generator Driven by a Reversible Exothermic Reaction

Creator:: Bhatt, Renuka J.
Abstract:: Solar thermal energy can be stored and later converted to electrical energy using a combination of thermochemical energy storage (TCES) and a thermoelectric generator (TEG). This TEG and TCES combination illustrates a potential route for clean electricity storage from renewable energy. TCES allows for thermal energy from the sun to...

Carbonation Kinetics of SrO By CO₂ for Solar Thermochemical Energy Storage

Creator:: Bagherisereshki, Elham
Abstract:: Given its abundance and accessibility, exploiting solar energy is a powerful approach to reduce dependency on fossil fuels for energy generation. Thermochemical reactions using concentrated solar power at high temperature are an attractive method of energy storage in support of concentrated solar power (CSP). Thermochemical energy storage of on-sun thermal...

Investigation of the Effect of Pulsed Direct Current on Methane Conversion and Reforming in a Point-to-Point Plasma Discharge Microreactor

Creator:: Shareghi, Adam E. L.
Abstract:: Stranded natural gas and biogas comprise a vast energy resource that is mostly wasted via flaring. This represents an opportunity to investigate novel ways to harness this resource. Nonthermal plasmas consist of excited electrons, ions and neutral atoms/molecules that have the ability to disrupt chemical bonds at ambient temperatures and...

Utilization of Renewable Energy via Thermochemistry

Creator:: Lei, Fuqiong
Abstract:: Utilization of solar energy or wind energy for electricity production is inherently challenging due to the diurnal and seasonal variations and normal intermittency. Effective, high efficiency storage methods need to be developed for further advancing renewable energy utilization. Endothermic chemical processing and thermochemical energy storage can be both employed as...

Production of C4-C10 Hydrocarbons from CO₂, H₂O, CO, H₂ and CH₄ Utilizing DC Glow Discharges, Catalytic Rapid Temperature Pulsing in Micro-Scale Reactors.

Creator:: Mohamed, Omar M.
Abstract:: This thesis experimentally determines the feasibility to creating C4 to C10 hydrocarbons from CO2, CO, H2, H2O and CH4. This is done in two steps, the initial step is the formation of ethylene through DC electrical glow discharge at ambient pressure while the second step is through temperature pulse controlled...
