Sentences with phrase «sodium and potassium nitrate»

The 280 MW Solana Generating Station will use a 60/40 alloy of molten Sodium and Potassium Nitrate salts to store the sun's concentrated heat energy, buffering solar input changes to meet 24/7 power demand.

The salt mixture, made up of sodium and potassium nitrates, can operate at the high temperatures generated in a solar tower's receiver.

Not exact matches

In the «power tower», potassium and sodium nitrate salts are heated to 565 °C and then pass through a heat exchanger where they turn water into steam to drive turbines in the 19.9 megawatt plant.

• Safe: free of disease - causing microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, spores); heavy metals; chemicals from industry and agriculture; pharmaceuticals; disinfectants and related by - products; radioactivity; and synthetic fluoride; • Fresh: neither salty nor stagnant; • Clean: physically, biologically and chemically; • Natural: coming from a pristine mountain stream, glacial river or fresh spring; • Hydrating: water with low surface tension and thus better hydrating; • Mineral balanced: contains a wide variety of minerals including trace minerals, excellent ionic activity (Total Dissolved Solids ~ 300 ppm), including cations such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium; and anions such as nitrate, chloride, bicarbonate, sulfate and carbonate.

This is because it contains potassium, nitrates, and sodium chloride - all of which help to restore the natural balance of bacteria on his skin.

Tower CSP (concentrated solar power) is a thermal form of solar that uses reflected sunlight off mirrors (heliostats) that track the sun to remain focused onto a receiver at the top of a tower, where the reflected and concentrated sunlight, or solar flux, heats a molten salt mix of sodium nitrate and potassium nitrate (common chemicals also used in agriculture) to about 565 C.
