Abstract
Climate change is a crucial challenge for the entire humankind, resulting from too high anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The implications of global warming are huge and alarming, requiring us a deep, radical change and a gradual desertion of fossil fuels. The production of syngas and hydrogen, a promising energy vector, is one of the available solutions to mitigate climate change. In particular, hydrogen is able to store and deliever large amounts of energy per unit mass, without releasing carbon dioxide during the combustion. Syngas is a mixture of mainly hydrogen and carbon monoxide, that acts as an intermediate for the generation of other high value products, such as methanol, gasoline, ammonia.
Among the several existing methods for the production of these two outputs, chemical looping technology through concentrated solar power (CSP) is definitely a rising star
