Abstract

The invention relates to a reactor for using solar radiant heat for thermal or thermochemical processes. Said reactor comprises a reactor housing (1, 101) having an opening (2a, 125) for allowing solar radiation into the reactor housing (1, 101), a reaction chamber (13, 117), and a volumetric absorber (2, 102) which is heated on a front side (2b, 102b) by means of the solar radiation and which releases heat into the reaction chamber (13, 117). Said absorber (2, 102) is a black body absorber which is arranged in a hearth (4, 109) and which introduces heat into the hearth (4, 109) from a rear side (2c, 126) thereof. The inventive reactor especially has the advantage that the heat can be released indirectly onto the product to be treated, over an essentially larger surface than before.
