Solar hydrogen production via thermochemical magnesium oxide – Magnesium sulfate water splitting cycle
Published 2020“…<p dir="ltr">This investigation reports the thermodynamic scrutiny of the MgO/MgSO<sub>4</sub> water-splitting cycle. At the initial stage, the thermal reduction temperature required for the commencement of the thermal dissociation of MgSO<sub>4</sub> (in the absence of inert Ar) and the maximum temperature below which the water-splitting reaction is feasible is identified by performing thermodynamic equilibrium calculations. …”
