摘要

钙循环体系（CaL）由于其安全性高、成本低、能量存储效率高和工作温度范围广等优势,在聚光太阳能发电的热化学储能系统中显示出巨大的发展潜力。该综述总结国内外近年来的研究进展,最后指出现阶段钙基储热剂存在循环反应过程中循环稳定性差、吸光性差、易磨损浪费等问题,并对未来研究方向进行展望,具体包括深入研究材料微观结构、设计更真实的循环反应器、考虑工艺制备过程的整体性、技术性、经济性。

Abstract

The calcium looping (CaL) system demonstrates significant potential for use in concentrated solar power generation. This potential is attributed to its high safety, low-cost, high-energy storage efficiency, and wide operating temperature range. The review summarizes recent domestic and international research progress and highlights that calcium-based heat storage agents currently face challenges such as poor cyclic stability, inadequate light absorption, and high wear during cyclic reactions. Additionally, the review anticipates future research directions, including in-depth studies of material microstructure, designing more realistic cyclic reactors, and considering the integrality, technology, and economy of the preparation process.
