ColdSpark® Joins the Valencia Symposium on Sustainable Chemical Energy Vectors
We are excited to announce that the ColdSpark® project will be featured at the Symposium on Sustainable Chemical Energy Vectors, organized by the 112CO2EU Consortium at the Instituto de Tecnología Química (UPV-CSIC) in Valencia, Spain, on October 29-30, 2024.
This symposium will convene key researchers, project partners, and experts from across Europe to explore innovative technologies driving the future of sustainable energy. With a focus on methane pyrolysis and COx-free hydrogen production, the event will showcase groundbreaking approaches to achieving low-carbon energy at competitive prices.
Event Highlights
- Sessions on Methane Splitting: Explore advanced technologies enabling low-cost decarbonization of energy systems, with a focus on sustainable hydrogen production.
- Presentations by Expert Speakers: Gain insights from leading European researchers and innovators presenting cutting-edge projects in sustainable energy vectors, including advancements in methane cracking, COx-free hydrogen, and value-added carbon production.
- Networking Opportunities: Connect with project partners, stakeholders, and invited experts to foster collaborations and discuss the potential of emerging hydrogen technologies.
- In-depth Discussions on Hydrogen Technologies: Dive into the future of hydrogen applications in transportation, industry, and power generation, with a spotlight on innovations contributing to net-zero goals.
The ColdSpark® project will be presented by Isabella Bulfaro, PhD candidate at IREC (Catalonia Institute for Energy Research), with a presentation on: “ColdSpark®: A Low-Carbon Emissions Technology for Hydrogen and Carbon Production.”
She will share insights from the project’s Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for sustainability evaluation, highlighting ColdSpark®’s compliance with European low-carbon thresholds and its groundbreaking approach to hydrogen production.
ColdSpark® Benefits:
- No direct CO₂ emissions and no catalyst requirements.
- Low operational energy consumption (<15 kWh/kg H₂) and operation at <300°C.
- High methane conversion efficiency (85%) through recirculation.
