The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to Colorado School of Mines to research, enhance and evaluate particle-based receiver and solar system process designs.  DOE Funding would be used to assemble and test a sub-scale particle receiver reactor device and a re-oxidation reactor to validate models and provide a basis for commercialization including a complete economic evaluation of such process modeling and engineering design.
