SILICON OR ELEMENTARY METALS AS ENERGY CARRIERS

A method for providing storable and transportable energy carriers (103, 104) is described. In one step, a transformation of silicon-dioxide-containing or metal-oxide-containing starting material (101) to silicon (103) or a metal occurs in a reduction process (105), wherein the primary energy for thi...

Zusammenfassung:A method for providing storable and transportable energy carriers (103, 104) is described. In one step, a transformation of silicon-dioxide-containing or metal-oxide-containing starting material (101) to silicon (103) or a metal occurs in a reduction process (105), wherein the primary energy for this reduction process (105) is provided from a renewable energy source. Then, a portion of the reaction products (102) from the reduction process (105) is applied in a process (106) for generating methanol, wherein (106) a synthesis gas (110) composed of carbon monoxide and hydrogen is used.
