Abstract of the Disclosure Organic solid wastes represented by the general chemical formula CXHYOZ are reacted with steam at elevated temperatures to produce H2 and CO2. The overall process is represented by the re- action CXHYOZ + 2(X-Z/2)H2O ? XCO2 + (1) [(Y/2) + 2(2X-Z/2)] H2 . Reaction (1) is endothermic and requires heat. This heat is sup- plied by a tower top solar furnace; alternatively, some of the solid wastes can be burned to supply heat for the reaction. The hydrogen produced by reaction (1) can be used as a fuel or a chem- ical feedstock. Alternatively, methanol can be produced by the commercial process CO2 + 3H2 ? CH3OH + H2O . (2) Since reaction (1) is endothermic, the system represents a method for storing heat energy from an external source in a chemical fuel produced from solid wastes.
