Energies (MDPI) 2025, OPEN ACCESS (fully ingestible).

Key findings

  • Tests thermally conductive additives — aluminium, copper, graphite — at 5, 15, 25 wt% in silica-gel beds.
  • Quantifies thermal-conductivity / heat-transfer enhancement per additive type and loading (a per-additive enhancement table).
  • Recent open-access experimental grounding for the additive lever that reviews cite generically.
  • Bridges composite sorbents and bed heat-transfer engineering.
