We are thrilled to announce that an article summarizing the key outcomes of our project has been featured on Cordis, the European Union’s platform for research and innovation. The article recognizes the crucial role the SCARABEUS had in the past 5 years, pioneering the development of innovative fluid blends that enhance the efficiency of solar […]
We are proud to unveil the new leaflet of SCARABEUS project, summarising the main outcomes our consortium has achieved in the last 5 years. SCARABEUS PROJECT
We are very glad to announce that the presentations of the 5th webinar on R&D Activities on sCO2 Activities in Europe are now available for download. Organised by ETN Global, coordinator of the CO2OLHEAT Project, this last event was focused on expander technology. Expanders pose the twofold challenge of achieving high efficiency and contain […]
The SCARABEUS project was well represented by researchers from University of Seville at the 7th International Seminar on Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Power Systems, held in Seville between September 4th and 6th. Two papers were presented at the conference, dealing with different aspects of supercritical cycles working on Carbon Dioxide mixtures in Concentrated Solar Power […]
Prof. David Sánchez, Dissemination Coordinator of SCARABEUS As announced in recent months, a final dissemination event was organised by the SCARABEUS project team with the aim to disclose the most relevant results and outcomes of the project. The event was collocated with the 7th International Seminar on Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Power Systems, held in […]
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). […]
As the SCARABEUS project is reaching to an end, it is time to organise the final dissemination event in the form of an international conference. To this end, SCARABEUS has agreed to co-locate this event with the 7th International Seminar on Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Power Systems, held in Seville between September 4th and 6th. […]
Turbine assembly cross section (©Baker Hughes Company, All Rights Reserved) The results of the collaboration between City, University of London (United Kingdom) and Baker-Hughes (Italy) have been have presented at ASME Turbo Expo in Boston (USA). This joint research has taken place within Work Package 3 – Turbomachinery Design of SCARABEUS, aimed at developing […]
Fan power consumption at reduced mass flow rate for different ACC designs The researchers at City, University of London have presented their work assessing the different contributions to energy losses experienced by radial turbines working with Carbon Dioxide mixtures in supercritical power cycles. This research work also considers the effect of turbine scale on […]
