The current contributor (End August 2010) is not a native english speaker. This can explain some weird terms that you are more than welcome to correct.

Proposal (titles might change): 1. History 1.1. initial studies (before 1970): theoretical screening of possible reactions 1.2. dark times (1970-2000): low experimental efficiency or complexity of most of these processes (low reactivities, corrosion of the reactors, difficult separation of the intermediate products, high temperature nuclear reactor not as simple as expected.. ), competitive analysis with standard processes (Shinnar et al) 1.3. Rebirth: solar concentrators offer very high temperature (above 1000K) that allowed 2. Principles 2.1. Thermodynamic comparison with water electrolysis at high temperatures //DONE 2.2. why adding more reactions allow to work with lower temperature heat sources? 2.3. other considerations 3. List of cycles with links to dedicated wiki articles for the most famous ones 3.1 those based on halide 3.2 those based on the reverse Deacon reaction 3.3. Iodine/Sulfur,.. (cycles studied by the nuclear industry) 3.3 solar applications 3.3.1. Fe3O4/FeO (Nakamura) 3.3.2. ZnO/Zn (Bilgen, ETH/PSI institutes))   3.3.3. ferrites (Japanese and US institutes, HYDROSOL project (Germany, Greece, Spain, Denmark, Great Britain))    3.3.4. SnO2/SnO (Israel, France)    3.3.5. CeO2/CeO, "cerrites" (France, Japan)    3.3.6. GeO2/GeO (Korea)  ..
