Synhelion is the first company to sustainably generate process heat beyond 1''500°C with concentrated solar radiation. This makes it possible to drive industrial processes such as fuel
In the CemSol research project, a team of scientists is developing and demonstrating a solar-heated calcination plant to produce cement. This process produces carbon dioxide, which is
Cemex and Synhelion announced today a significant milestone in their joint effort to develop fully solar-driven cement production: the scaling of their technology to industrially-viable levels.
An innovative and efficient solar power plant solution has been developed for cement factories. On an annual basis, solar PV systems in cement plants may save 22,941 tonnes of CO2.
A groundbreaking cement developed by Chinese scientists can now generate electricity from heat—thanks to a bio-inspired design that mimics plant stems. By combining hydrogel layers
CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) and Synhelion announced today the successful production of the world''s first solar clinker, the key component of cement, a significant step towards
CEMEX and Synhelion have announced a significant milestone to develop fully solar-driven cement production by scaling their technology to industrially-viable levels. This includes the
In the present work, the authors have attempted to design a solar cement plant for supplying solar energy to the cement industry. A case study was done, which investigated a
Synhelion and Cemex collaborate to pioneer solar-powered cement production. Synhelion''s technology, originating from ETH Zurich, uses solar radiation to produce syngas for cement production.
