Solving the cost challenges of the hydrogen economy with no harmful emissions

In this talk at the RSC, Burlington House, London, Dr Arash Badakhsh, will discuss his novel HyWand™ reactor technology for hydrogen production and compare it with existing technologies such as steam methane reforming, plasma, fluid bed pyrolysis, and electrolysis.

Hydrogen is a fuel source that will enable energy distribution and storage, large scale industries and support the intermittency of renewables. Dr Badaksh will outline a vision for a hydrogen economy where clean molecules and advanced materials are created side-by-side. HyWand™ combines clean low-cost hydrogen generation with the production of high value synthetic graphite and carbon nanotubes. 

The talk, starting at 6.30pm on Tuesday 23^rd November 2026 in the Science Room at Burlington House, will be followed by a Q and A session. It will be an opportunity to network with the speaker and other attendees in an after talk wine reception. There will be a small charge to cover the cost of the meeting and the refreshments.
