.... For these experiments, a continuous flow reactor was employed. This system is basically constituted by a Pyrex glass tube located in the focus of a compound parabolic collector made of anodized aluminum. Raschig rings of borosilicate glass coated with Ti O 2 and randomly packed within the reactor tube were used...

...W. Durisch; F. von Roth; W. J. Tobler In a first and completely new approach, a vacuum plasma-spray coating technique was used to deposit selective emitting rare-earth oxide films of ytterbia ( Yb 2 O 3 ) on porous silicon-infiltrated silicon carbide foams (Si–SiC). The plasma-spray coating...

... environments show that employing high-albedo coatings on the building exterior wall was an active and effective approach to mitigating the high temperatures in the urban environment and its consequences. Moreover, an integral method was used to calculate albedo, which supplies an effective way in the selection...
