Sparc Hydrogen to test photocatalytic water splitting (PWS) reactor at CSIRO

Green Car Congress

The Sparc Green Hydrogen process combines concentrated solar (CS) with photocatalytic water splitting. The reactor is being designed to allow testing of new and improved photocatalysts as they are developed and also to slot into a linear Fresnel CS field. one level closer to a commercially deployable product.
