Solar storage

The cluster ion (Mo6Cl 4) has been suggested to be potentially useful in systems for solar storage (Maverick and Gray). 

Limiting constraints of multiple band gap photoelectrochemical energy conversion, as well as practical configurations for efficient solar to electrical energy conversion have been probed [1-6]. Such systems are capable of better matching and utilizing of incident solar radiation (insolation). Efficient solar cells, solar storage cells.

Neopentyl glycol can be used for thermal energy storage by virtue of its soHd-phase transition, which occurs at 39—41°C, a temperate range useful for solar heating and cooling (28—31).

Most schemes that have been proposed to propel starships involve plasmas. Schemes differ both in the selection of matter for propulsion and the way it is energi2ed for ejection. Some proposals involve onboard storage of mass to be ejected, as in modem rockets, and others consider acquisition of matter from space or the picking up of pellets, and their momentum, which are accelerated from within the solar system (184,185). Energy acquisition from earth-based lasers also has been considered, but most interstellar propulsion ideas involve nuclear fusion energy both magnetic, ie, mirror and toroidal, and inertial, ie, laser and ion-beam, fusion schemes have been considered (186—190). 

Fig. 4. In the Solar Two Project a molten salt system shown in the scheme replaces Solar One s water/steam system. In operation, "cold" molten salt is pumped from a storage tank to a receiver on a tower. Sunlight reflected from a field of sun-tracking mirrors heats the salt in the receiver to 1050°C. The heated salt then flows down into a hot storage tank where it is pumped to a heat exchanger to produce the steam that drives a turbine. Some of the hot molten salt can also be stored to produce steam on demand at a later time. Salt cooled to 550°C in the steam generator recirculates through the system and...

Cadmium hydroxide is the anode material of Ag—Cd and Ni—Cd rechargeable storage batteries (see Batteries, secondary cells). Cadmium sulfide, selenide, and especially teUuride find utiUty in solar cells (see Solarenergy). Cadmium sulfide, Hthopone, and sulfoselenide are used as colorants (orange, yellow, red) for plastics, glass, glazes, mbber, and fireworks (see Colorants for ceramics Colorants forplastics Pigments). 

Does your house have air conditioning, or a heat pump Do you have solar he,- ig, a Jacu22i bath, swimming pool, aquarium, solar heating, a roof mounted water storage tank, a well, a power assisted commode, a motorboat, a jet ski, ATV or camper Then you have even more mechanical sealed pumps. We have mechanical sealed pumps in practically all facets of our everyday life, and these pump seals last for years wii problems.
