Closed-loop reactions as a new kind of catalysts. 2 HCl = H2 + Cl2. April 28, 2026 (1) 2 HCl = H2 + Cl2, dH = + 185 kJ, dS = - 21 J/K*mol. (1a) H2 + Cl2 + k * (H20 = H2 + 0.5 O2) + 2 HCl, T > (242 * k - 185) * 1,000 / (54 * k + 21) - 273. At k = 0.88, T > 150 C. At k = 0.85 and H2O (liquid), T = 97 C A cost of primary energy of Solar and Wind in the order of magnitude can be cheapened too by reducing their frontal dimension down to about 1.0 m2 unit, so such units are thinner proportionally and is negligible vs. a cost of electric generators being a lion's share per kilowatt, and per kWh.
