VULT

3 Years of innovation design and commercial solar modeling delivered a seasonal tracker that enhance solar system efficiency by 25% in our medium to large agricultural business target market. We are the the only scaled manual tracker (2 x seasonal settings) that we know of. Our design integrates with latest bifacial panel technology that require higher installation to absorb reflective light. We have excellent thin steel manufacturing skills to manufacture the tracker. Solar panel producers rejoice at achieving 2.5% better efficiencies, 25 percent is game changing to result in a below 5 year

Electrolysis Cell Comprising Sulpher Dioxide-Depolarising Anode and Method of Using the Same In Hydrogen Generation

This technology involves a method for generating hydrogen in an electrolysis cell. A proton exchange membrane (PEM) is used to separate anode and cathode chambers of the cell. The space between the anode and the PEM is filled with aqueous sulfuric acid. In use, gaseous sulphur dioxide is fed to the...

A Method and Apparatus for Hydrogen Generation

This process is used for generating hydrogen by providing a hydrogen chemical carrier in the presence of an active catalyst in a reactor vessel and elevating the temperature inside the reactor by electromagnetic process to allow a dehydrogenation reaction to generate hydrogen. The active catalyst is...
