In this paper we propose a new solar thermal collector which is suitable for providing heat for endothermic chemical reactions. The particular reaction that is considered is hydrogen production by menthol reforming. The design presented here is based on CPC (compound parabolic concentrator)...

Hydrogen energy systems (HES) are increasingly recognized as pivotal in cutting global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, especially in transportation, power generation, and industrial sectors. This paper offers a comprehensive review of HES, emphasizing their diverse applications and economic...
