Sparc Hydrogen has significantly progressed the design and engineering of a pilot scale photocatalytic water splitting (PWS) reactor to produce green hydrogen at cheaper cost than traditional electrolysis. The company, a joint venture between Sparc Technologies, Fortescue and the University of Adelaide, has been working collaboratively with a linear Fresnel equipment supplier to ensure the…
Green hydrogen technology developer Sparc Hydrogen has released a video (below) detailing their work with CSIRO demonstrating the company’s novel process of concentrated solar photocatalytic water splitting (PWS) as an alternative method for producing green hydrogen at industrial scale. Lead researcher at the company Professor Greg Metha said: “Photocatalysis uses the Sun’s energy incident on…
Sparc Hydrogen has begun prototype testing of its photocatalytic technology to split water into green hydrogen and oxygen at the CSIRO Energy Centre in Newcastle, NSW (pictured) The company, a joint venture between Sparc Technologies, Fortescue Future Industries and the University of Adelaide, has mounted its prototype photocatalytic reactor unit on the CSIRO’s solar tower…
