使用太阳光的高热力学势的能源密集型工业太阳能热化学和热电化学处理的优点和随之而来的需要高温分离方法进行了讨论。介绍了应用实例。从氧化锌中生产锌被用作一个明确的说明性例子，以显示太阳能带来的一些机会和问题。准电解的使用，它利用了从阳光中获得的高温过程热，被引入作为一种分离技术。建议提出了其他类型的机会，可能是有益的探索。
The advantages of using the high thermodynamic potential of sunlight for energy-intensive industrial solar thermochemical and thermoelectrochemical processing and the concomitant need for high-temperature separation methods are discussed. Example applications are introduced. The production of zinc from zinc oxide is used as an explicit illustrative example to show some opportunities and problems that solar energy presents. The use of quasi-electrolysis, which takes advantage of the high-temperature process heat available from sunlight, is introduced as a separation technique. Suggestions are made for additional kinds of opportunities which might be profitably explored.
