The objective of this literature review and survey is to provide a compilation and assessment of recent published reports for solar-electric device soiling R&D, to extend and update the …
Many sites with high solar radiation face high dust loads that reduce energy generation by concentrated solar power plants. This review presents the attenuative impacts of …
The accumulation of dust particles on solar collectors can gradually degrade optical performance in solar systems—a phenomenon known as soiling. Additionally, the formation …

This study presents a novel analysis of a non-contact cleaning system for Concentrated Solar Thermal (CST) reflectors. The analysis is essentially divided in two parts, the first aims …
The growing energy demand in contemporary societies, coupled with the environmental detriments of conventional energy sources, necessitates a shift towards sustainable …
This project was a step forward in establishing an effective high-pressurised cleaning procedure to investigate soil detachment from CSP reflectors through fluid dynamic …
