Abstract: The concentrated PV solar power stack system includes a solar concentration assembly, HC sunlight transmission light pipe and a LEC stack assembly holding a plurality of light-to-electricity conversion (LEC) cells inside a compact weatherproofed housing enclosure. Each single LEC cell includes one LD panel having one light-emitting side and one PV solar panel adjoining the said LD panel; alternatively, a double-sided LD panel capable of emitting solar radiation evenly on both sides and two adjoining PV panels on each of the outer side of the said LD panel form a double LEC cell. A spectral & thermal conditioning system of the HC solar radiation beam represented by a combination of spectral cooling and heat sink devices reduces the thermal load in the LEC stack assembly and also improves the its light-to-electricity conversion rate.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for selectively oxidizing the carbon monoxide present in a mixture of gases, including hydrogen, to carbon dioxide is disclosed. Oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas mixture is introduced at locations along the latter portion of the reaction chamber in an isothermal reactor to selectively oxidize the carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide and to suppress the reverse to water-shift reaction, which produces carbon monoxide and water from carbon dioxide and hydrogen.
