As SCARABEUS is reaching the final stage of the project(end scheduled in February 2024), the consortium is very glad and proud to announce the Exhibition that will take place at the Science Centre, TU Wien, hosting the experimental facility where the innovative mixtures and components developed in the course of the project […]
iSOP stands for Innovation in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Power Systems. It is a four year project funded by the European Commission through the Marie Sklodovska-Curie subprogramme of Horizon Europe, the 100 billion Euro flagship R&D programme in the EU. iSOP is an Industrial Doctoral Network (MSCA-DN-IN) coordinated by University of Seville (Prof. David T. Sánchez […]
As SCARABEUS heads towards the last months of the project, and research outcomes are being disseminated amongst different stakeholders, the younger researchers in the project are also achieving their scientific objectives. This last week saw Salma Salah, a young researcher at City, University of London, successfully pass her PhD Viva. Within WP3, Salma has worked […]
Schematic of ACC used as reference for SCARABEUS The researchers at University of Seville have presented their work on the design and operation of air-cooled condensers for integration into Concentrated Solar Power plants using the SCARABEUS technology. This work has been carried out in the context of Work Package 5 (Techno-economic, Social and […]
Front view of the SCARABEUS test rig at TU Wien The researchers at the Technical University of Vienna (Austria) and Kelvion Thermal Solutions (France) have presented their work on the design of and operation of the SCARABEUS test rig at the Austrian academic institution. This work has been carried out in the […]
The 5th European Conference on Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Energy Systems was held in Prague (Czech Republic) on the 15th and 16th of March, 2023. The conference was very well organised by Prof. Dostal (Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic) and Prof. Brillert (Technical University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany). The excellent scientific programme was comprised of […]
The SCARABEUS team at University of Seville has recently published an assessment of transcritical cycles running on different Carbon Dioxide mixtures in Concentrated Solar Power applications. This assessment makes use of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, rather than the 1st Law that is commonly used, with the aim to identify the room for […]
As already published on this website, the CO2OLHEAT Project coordinated by ETN Global aims to demonstrate (at TRL7) the operation of a 2 MW Waste-Heat-to-power (WH2P) skid based on a 2MW-sCO2 cycle, able to efficiently valorize local waste heat at a significant temperature of 400°C in the CEMEX cement manufacturing plant in Prachovice (CZ). […]
A new project aimed at advancing supercritical Carbon dioxide technologies has just been kick-started in Europe. The project is titled Innovation in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Power Generation Systems and is funded by the Marie Sklodowska-Curie subprogramme (MSCA) of Horizon Europe, under Grant Agreement No. 101073266. The consortium is comprised of nine industrial beneficiaries, […]
As already published on this website, the CO2OLHEAT Project coordinated by ETN Global is organizing, since September 2022, a series of webinars aimed at providing a forum where the R&D activities in the area of supercritical Carbon Dioxide technologies can be disseminated and made known to a wider audience. This initative has been joined by […]
