Abstract:
A photovoltaic apparatus comprising: at least one photovoltaic surface electrically connected to a set of photovoltaic electrodes; and a chemical reactor electrically connected to the set of photovoltaic electrodes. The chemical reactor enables N pairwise fluid contacts among k chemical fluids, with k≥2 and N≥4 and comprises: a reaction layer extending in a plane subtended by two directions; N chemical cells, each including two circuit portions, designed for enabling circulation of two of the k chemical fluids, respectively, the two circuit portions intersecting each other, thereby enabling one pairwise fluid contact for the two of the k chemical fluids; and a fluid distribution circuit comprising: k sets of inlet orifices sequentially alternating along lines parallel to one of the two directions; and k sets of outlet orifices sequentially alternating along lines parallel to the inlet orifices, and wherein, each circuit portion connects an inlet orifice to an outlet orifice.

Claim (Index 1):
A photovoltaic apparatus (PA) comprising an array (PMA) of photovoltaic cells (PC), the photovoltaic apparatus comprising:\n at least one photovoltaic surface (PS) electrically connected to a set of photovoltaic electrodes (PE, BE); and a chemical reactor (CR) electrically connected to the set of photovoltaic electrodes, said chemical reactor designed for enabling N pairwise fluid contacts among k chemical fluids, with k\u22652 and N\u22654, the chemical reactor comprising: a reaction layer (RP)\n extending in a 2D plane subtended by two directions (x, y), in a perpendicular fashion; and \n comprising N chemical cells (CC), each including two circuit portions (CP 1 , CP 2 , CP), said two circuit portions designed for enabling circulation of two of the k chemical fluids, respectively, said two circuit portions further intersecting each other, thereby enabling one pairwise fluid contact for said two of the k chemical fluids; \n a fluid distribution circuit (M 1 , M 2 ) comprising: \n k sets of inlet orifices (IA, IB) sequentially alternating along lines parallel to one (y) of the two directions (x, y), for respectively dispensing k chemical fluids to the reaction layer; and \n k sets of outlet orifices (OA\u2032, OB\u2032) sequentially alternating along lines parallel to the inlet orifices, for respectively collecting k chemical fluids from the reaction layer, the outlet orifices shifted along said one (y) of the two directions with respect to the inlet orifices, and wherein, \n each circuit portion connects, via respective ends thereof, an inlet orifice to an outlet orifice.
