The potential and technical challenges of the SCARABEUS project presented at the 7th Supercritical Power Cycles Symposium held at Soutwest Research Institute, TX The team at University of Seville, on behalf of the consortium, presented the potential of the SCARABEUS project to overcome the main limitations experienced by all power cycles in the usually warm […]

SCARABEUS participates to the European Corner at the 6th International Seminar on Organic Rankine Cycle Power Systems

The 6th edition of the International Seminar on ORC Power Systems was held in October, organized by the Technical University of Munich and the Knowledge Centre on Organic Rankine Cycle technology (KCORC). It was a very exciting event, with lots of interesting presentations and panels on different aspects of the energy industry and technologies, including […]

New SCARABEUS paper discusses the benefits brought about by the utilization of Carbon Dioxide mixtures in supercritical power cycles applied to Concentrated Solar Power plants

The SCARABEUS consortium (University of Seville, University of Brescia, Politecnico di Milano and LEAP) has just published in Energy journal their recent research in the area of cycle performance. This research paper provides a through analysis of the underpinning reasons why the utilization of mixtures enables higher maximum (thermal) efficiency and it also reveals the […]
