Toward the recovery of solar silicon from end-of-life PVs by vacuum refining

Hoseinpur Kermani, Arman; Tang, Kai; Ulyashin, Alexander; Palitzch, Wolfram; Safarian, Jafar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)

Considering the boom of Si solar cell installation, it is necessary to establish a process for recycling of Si from End-of-life photovoltaics (PVs). Silicon in the PVs is synthetically doped and coated by various elements ...
The Use of Eutectic Fe-Si-B Alloy as a Phase Change Material in Thermal Energy Storage Systems

Jiao, Jianmeng; Grorud, Bettina; Sindland, Caroline; Safarian, Jafar; Tang, Kai; Sellevoll, Kathrine; Tangstad, Merete (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)

Fe-26.38Si-9.35B eutectic alloy is proposed as a phase change material (PCM) as it exhibits high latent heat, high thermal conductivity, moderate melting point, and low cost. For successful implementation of it in the ...
The Utilization of Bauxite Residue with a Calcite-Rich Bauxite Ore in the Pedersen Process for Iron and Alumina Extraction

Lazou, Adamantia; Eijk, Casper van der; Tang, Kai; Balomenos, Efthymios; Kolbeinsen, Leiv; Safarian, Jafar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)

Metallurgical grade alumina is produced worldwide through the well-known Bayer process, which unavoidably generates bauxite residue (BR, also known as red mud) in almost equal amounts to alumina. This study aims the ...
