Abstract
In thermochemical storage heat is stored as heat of reaction of a reversible thermochemical process
The reverse reaction is prevented from taking place by separating the products Σ P. Sometimes separation is not needed, as preventing access to a catalyst, cooling of the products, or lowering the pressure may be sufficient to inhibit the reverse reaction.
