“HYDROGEN-based #WHISKY production facility achieves milestone” By Edward Laity - on Nov 29, 2023 “UK-based clean technology start-up Supercritical has completed its #greenhydrogen demonstrator at its Teesside facility.” “The demonstrator will support the WhiskHy project, a collaboration led by Supercritical with Beam Suntory, and the Manufacturing Technology Centre, part of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult.” “The project is funded by the Net Zero Innovation Portfolio under the #GreenDistilleriesCompetition and will combine traditional #whiskyproduction methods with #zeroemissiontechnology.” “The approach features a #membraneless, #iridiumfree, and #compressorfree solution, and will solve critical #supplychainchallenges, presenting a scalable and efficient alternative to conventional methods.” “Supercritical’s #waterelectrolysis method includes functioning at elevated #pressures and #temperatures and the breakthrough represents a significant reduction in green hydrogen costs.” “The facility will boast #highpressure #greenhydrogenproduction at 220bara and will serve as a crucial testing ground for optimising Supercritical’s innovative #electrolysertechnology. The company is poised to deliver green hydrogen below £1 per kg before 2030. “The advanced testing unit was recently visited by the Minister for Energy Efficiency and Green Finance, Lord Callanan, who claimed that #innovations such as this are “central to delivering the #newtechnologies” and to reach #NetZero.” ““Backed by £2.9m ($3.6m) in government funding, this new milestone will forge the way to using hydrogen in #whiskyproduction, helping to #decarbonise our industrial heartlands,” he said.” “The partnership will see Beam Suntory apply direct #hydrogenflames to #copperstills, using traditional #distillation techniques while reducing its #carbonfootprint. The project is aiming to revolutionise the #whiskyindustry, producing high quality products with #NetZeroemissions.” https://lnkd.in/grt6cT-6 Source - original post Read all my posts #MariusPreston #distilleries #distillation #hydrogenproduction #hydrogenfuel
