NL-IL Symposium on Desalination, Electrolyzers & Clean Hydrogen Production
Thu, Jun 17, 2021 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM Israel Daylight Time (UTC+3)
Register here.
Clean hydrogen can be produced by electrolysis of water. Israel’s desalination technology can create electrolyzer-clean water.
About this Event
Clean hydrogen can be produced through electrolysis of water. However, since the solid oxide electrolyzer cell cannot operate directly with the seawater, the water intake needs to be treated. This water treatment comprises of purification and desalination. Israel is a world leader in desalination technology and can offer Dutch hydrogen valleys with the knowhow and technology in the field of desalination.
