The THERMO-Store™ thermal storage & exchange system consists of hot and cold salt tanks, heat exchanger, tubes, instruments, electric tracing, heat preserver and other auxiliary systems. The salt tank can store high-temperature molten salt to exchange with water through heat exchangers to produce superheated steam for high-quality power generation.
