A mobilized thermal energy storage (TES) system has been proposed to recover and use industrial waste or excess heat for distributed users. In this paper, lab-scale test facilities have been built to understand the mechanisms of heat charging and discharging processes. The facilities consist of...

Introducing CO2 capture and storage (CCS) into the power systems requires the re-investigation of the load balance for the electrical grid. For the oxy-coal combustion capture technology, the energy use of ASU can be shifted between the peak-load and off-peak-load periods, which may bring more...

Mobilized thermal energy storage (M-TES) system is considered as an attractive alternative to supply heat to distributed heat users, especially when the waste heat from industries is used as a heat source. From our previous study it was known that the charging time of M-TES system was more than...
