SCARABEUS represented at the 7th International Seminar on Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems

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 […]

Final dissemination event in Seville

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 […]

The fifth episode of the webinar series on R& Activities on sCO2 in Europe organized by ETN will take place on September 28th

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).   […]
