Green hydrogen produced on site can help Africa's people, says Hydrox

This audio is brought to you by Wearcheck, your condition monitoring specialist. Green hydrogen produced on site can play a huge role in solving the energy crisis as it eliminates the challenges associated with establishing electrical distribution networks over vast distances, says Hydrox Holdings CEO Corrie de Jager. "Access to dependable energy can be the catalyst to improving the lives of many and with access to electricity the potential of Africa's people can be developed," De Jager points out in a release to Engineering News & Mining Weekly. Hydrox's Proudly South African divergent electrode flow through (DEFTTM) technology, already a recipient of South Africa's National Science and Technology Forum Award for Innovation, last year won top recognition in Monaco at the principality's inaugural hydrogen forum. DEFT allows hydrogen-producing electrolysers to operate without membranes at higher temperatures, resulting in significantly improved electrical efficiencies. The African Hydrogen Partnership estimates that more than 600-million people in Africa have no access to electricity. "To replace paraffin and diesel with methanol and hydrogen is going to make a massive impact in people's lives," says De Jager. "At conference after conference we learn about big plans and vast amounts available for the development of green hydrogen in South Africa but the execution of these plans is unfortunately lacking. "Many engineers and firms, including ourselves, that have the technology and knowhow to immediately implement hydrogen-related projects, are faced with the harsh reality that access to funding is just about impossible. "The relevant governmental agencies, and even the venture capital firms in control of these funds, are so busy 'de-risking' projects that smaller enterprises are denied access to funding - and in the process South Africa is losing valuable skills and technology," he says. Hydrox calculates that its membraneless DEFT has the potential to reduce the cost of producing hydrogen by up to 30%. Envisaged when Hydrox beat off 15 global strongholds, among them the US, Europe, Canada, Australia and India to win its Monoco award, was that the principality could use the South African technology in a marine context. "They've got these huge motor boats lying out there in the harbour, massive ones, that all use diesel, and they want to replace the diesel with green hydrogen - as do the countries alongside them, such as Spain and Italy, Gibraltar and Malta. They all approached us. They have a huge need to get into the green hydrogen space," De Jager told Engineering News & Mining Weekly last December. "There is great excitement about South Africa's plans to take advantage of our abundant sunshine and to a lesser degree our wind resources to generate green hydrogen industries for export to Europe and Japan. "This is great news for all our green pundits but from a purely practical view, it is difficult to see how we in South Africa can compete in the export market," he contends. Australia is investing heavily in green hydrogen; existing pipelines of Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco and Egypt, with already developing green hydrogen zones, can pump methanol at low cost; Namibia, with existing infrastructure in place, is receiving financial support from Germany; and Spain, with significant solar and wind resources, is developing its own green hydrogen industries. Germany is completing a study which indicates that South Africa needs to make itself more competitive. At the end of the month, Hydrox will, once again, be presenting in Monaco, where it will be highlighting a solution to large-scale energy storage at high energy efficiencies. DEFT, without a membrane, allows for higher temperature production and can operate off seawater and treated acid mine water. Standard electrolysers use a heat exchanger system to remove excess heat so that it does not supersede the maximum operating temperature of the membrane. Within DEFT, this excess temp...

Proudly South African green hydrogen technology, which has the potential to slash the cost of green hydrogen, has just won top recognition in Monaco at the principality's inaugural hydrogen forum. The homegrown divergent electrode flow through (DEFT™) technology, which is already a recipient of South Africa's National Science and Technology Forum Award for Innovation, allows electrolysers to operate without membranes at higher temperatures, which results in greatly improved electrical efficiencies. (Also watch attached Creamer Media video.) Corrie de Jager, the CEO of Hydrox Holdings, the developer of the technology, stated in a Zoom interview that the patented DEFT system has the potential to slash the cost of producing hydrogen by up to 30% as the world's first hydrogen electrolyser that does not make use of membranes. The standard method of extracting hydrogen from water has been by using a membrane to separate the two electrodes. Even the latest platinum-based proton exchange membrane, or PEM, electrolyser uses a membrane. But Hydrox's patented DEFT system does not, which has resulted in it being recognised as the best emerging technical solution for mobility and marine solutions. The company's objective is to produce hydrogen below R100/kg, making it cost competitive with petrol. Its intention is to make hydrogen readily accessible to the public by adopting the single-pump model, which was once used at filling stations by the long defunct Satmar and then later by Sasol in its early days. “Our technology is membraneless technology, which we patented and prototyped with the support of Shell through its Shell Gamechanger programme. “This technology is really now coming to the fore and people are taking cognisance of it,” De Jager enthused in an interview with Engineering News & Mining Weekly. Hydrox competed with hundreds of applicants from 15 global strongholds, among them the US, Europe, Canada, Australia and India. Conventional electrolysers, De Jager pointed out, lose between 25% and 30% of their electrical input as waste heat, which drives up the price of electrolytic hydrogen, making it uncompetitive with fossil fuels. But DEFT, without a membrane, allows for higher temperature production and can operate off sea water and treated acid mine water. Standard electrolysers use a heat exchanger system to remove excess heat so that it does not supersede the maximum operating temperature of the membrane. Within DEFT, this excess temperature can be ‘locked' into the system to improve system efficiencies, resulting in lower operating expenditure and hydrogen costs. The new system can also handle fluctuating currents, which makes it ideal for renewable energy and ‘green' hydrogen. Electrolysis electrochemically splits water into hydrogen and oxygen and for the past 200 years, electrolysers have been limited to lower temperatures and pressures, with electrolysis basically being undertaken using some or other form of membrane to keep the gases separate. Mining Weekly: How does Monaco plan to use green hydrogen? De Jager: The principality wants to use it in a marine context. They've got these huge motor boats lying out there in the harbour, massive ones, that all use diesel, and they want to replace the diesel with green hydrogen, as do the countries alongside of them such as Spain and Italy, Gibraltar and Malta. They all approached us. They have a huge need to get into the green hydrogen space. When is your DEFT electrolyser technology going to be deployed commercially? That's the jackpot question. Shell helped us with a grant and then Covid struck and we came to a standstill and had to switch to the advanced alkaline electrolyte standard zero gap system. Now that recognition of our DEFT technology is revived, we can't wait to continue with it.

South Africa's geological prospectivity is fantastic – Minerals Council CEO

South Africa's geological prospectivity is fantastic with only 15% of the country's surface area having been mapped at a high resolution of 50 000 to 1 geophysical level. Moreover, the world of geology has changed a lot in the last 20 years. “The people that find the deposits these days are the mathematicians and statisticians who sit in little offices looking at the geological abnormalities using algorithms to do so, and then send the geologists to go and find the deposit,” Minerals Council South Africa CEO Roger Baxter told the Joburg Indaba on Wednesday. That compared with 20 years ago when it was typically hands-on geologist type work. Baxter displayed slides that highlighted South Africa's potential geological opportunities in chrome, platinum group metals, gold, iron-ore, titanium minerals and diamonds. On mining in South Africa being a sunset or sunrise industry, he said: “We've got an incredibly world-class mining sector, business capability that is hard to deny at a global level, and a committed and patriotic business sector, which really matters for this country, and wants to see South Africa succeed. “We've got significant research, development and innovation capacity, a pipeline of skills from world-class educational facilities and in some areas great infrastructure but we're just not getting our service levels on that infrastructure that we need,” Baxter said. Having recently returned from Australia, he noted that mining engineering was no longer offered at any of the universities in Queensland, compared with South Africa, which had a surplus of mining engineers coming out of universities. But these could not be employed because the country was failing to grow the mining sector at a sufficiently fast pace – “and we should be doing something about that”. Direct engagement with the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) on how South Africa can have a world-class cadastral system and exploration plan in place. “We are making progress. It has been a little bit frustrating from the point of view of the pace of the progress, but it's not due to a lack of effort,” Baxter said, adding in response to a question that he had had a discussion on the setting up of a cadastre with the Mineral Resources Minister's special advisor, the Deputy Minister and the Deputy DG in charge of policy at the Africa Downunder conference in Perth. “It's an interesting place to engage your government and there was agreement that we need to get the cadastre sorted out quickly. The Minerals Council's position remains very clear – buy a new off-the-shelf cadastral system. We've got two world-class cadastral system companies that operate in South Africa. You don't have to develop a brand new bespoke system that will take you three years to get operational “We're talking about an off-the-shelf system will probably take six months to iron out a few of the edges and get working and you want a transparent cadastral system that gives you all the preconverted geological information. “You also want a licensing system linked to that cadastral system that works on much shorter timelines. Many mining companies tell me they applied two years ago for a prospecting right and I'm still waiting, or they find that the application lost or given to someone else. “When you've got full transparency, you can make a lot of progress. But at least the DMRE has admitted that Samrad is dysfunctional. Can we see an off-the-shelf system being procured? That's something we're really pushing for from our side,” said Baxter As reported by Mining Weekly last month, while South Africa does not have such a commercially available cadastre, fellow African countries that are already thriving on one include Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Ethiopia, Guinea, Kenya, Libya, Malawi, Mauritania, Mozambique and Zambia. Worse still is that the Proudly South African supplier of the system to these countries has opted to walk away from the DMRE's ten...

The key objective of transparency in applying for prospecting rights and mining rights – and openly managing them – can be enabled by a commercially available cadastre system. While South Africa does not have such a cadastre, fellow African countries that are already thriving on it include Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Ethiopia, Guinea, Kenya, Libya, Malawi, Mauritania, Mozambique and Zambia. Worse still is that the Proudly South African supplier of the system to these countries has opted to walk away from the South African tender invitation – because it is unable to understand the drivers of the terms of reference that South Africa's Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) has set. A cadastre is ideally an end-to-end solution that not only awards exploration and mining licences but also monitors regulation, tax and royalty collection, and revenue distribution. “Minerals Council South Africa is absolutely adamant that we want a commercially available cadastre system in South Africa, and that message is conveyed to both the DMRE and the Council for Geoscience on an ongoing basis,” Minerals Council South Africa's Junior and Emerging Miners Desk head Grant Mitchell stated during a junior mining and exploration webinar covered by Mining Weekly. (Also watch attached Creamer Media video.) “We really feel that if we are going to unlock the exploration potential of this country, we need a mining cadastre, along with a flow-through share tax system,” added Mitchell. At the same webinar, Council for Geoscience CEO Mosa Mabuza urged all South Africans to rally around exploration as this country's Big Hairy Audacious Goal, owing to it being essential for the future of mining, a major national strength. The supplier of the cadastre, Trimble, began its work in Africa as Spatial Dimension nearly two decades ago. “Our first mining cadastre project was in 2003 in Mozambique, a World Bank-funded project and we've got well over 20 customers now using our system to manage their mineral rights in their country,” Trimble Natural Resources MD Bill Feast outlined. Through its efforts, Cameroon has an online cadastre system and one can see who has applied where in Côte d'Ivoire. The DRC has been using its system for well over a decade, and one can do a desktop search on where people are applying in Ethiopia, Guinea, Kenya, Malawi, Mauritania, Mozambique, Libya and Zambia. One can find these portals on its website, where one can see how easy it is to find out the landholding in any of these countries. “I'm sure most of you know how difficult it is at the DMRE to find out who owns what and where,” said Feast. On the reason for walking away from the DMRE's cadastre tender put out over a year ago, he said: “We didn't understand the drivers behind their terms of reference.” Trimble is now a few weeks away from going live with the Botswana's new cadastre system, while the DMRE is still, as far as he understands, debating. “Probably by the end of October, there's going to be a new Botswana portal that you're going to be able to log-in to. It's got multi-factor authentication so you'll be able to log-in securely,” he told webinar attendees. “Once you enter the system, you'll be presented with a dashboard of all the mineral rights allocated to you or the company that you represent. “You'll be able to monitor your obligations, make online payments, upload your work reports, upload your production statistics, see whatever the obligations for that particular exploration or mining right are,” said Feast, who provided screenshots of how to apply for a new licence ­– yes, by simply clicking on ‘apply'. In this case, a prospecting licence for uranium was the outcome. He then uploaded a shapefile of the area applied for. The tenure could be seen in the background, as well as protected areas and exclusion zones. He digitised a square and one could see that the area applied for overlapped with four restricted areas.

Welcome to Episode 13! In this week's episode, I had the opportunity to interview not one but two physician fellows specialising in Endocrinology in the department of internal medicine at my base hospital, Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital. I'm sure when you hear 'endocrinology' some of the first associations you make are with common condition such as diabetes, thyrotoxicosis and hypothyroidism. However, just as there are many many more hormones in the body, so there are plenty of conditions that endocrinologists manage in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I'm sure you'll enjoy this week's episode featuring Dr Ruchika Mehta and Dr Constance Adams. Whether endocrinology is a sub-spec you've considered a career in or not, it's helpful to appreciate the journey to specialisation that fellows and consultants go through and the decision-algorithm that guided their choices. Whereas only a few of us will become endocrinologists, we're all guaranteed to consult endocrine for an opinion at some point! As Dr Adams puts it, being an endocrinologist is about being a good general physician of the whole patient, rather than just an expert in a single organ or system.

A Proudly South African green hydrogen mobile solution, which is scheduled to be launched at the African Aerospace and Defence Exhibition (AAD) next month, ticks all the local boxes by making use of a platinum-catalysed hydrogen proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and also being able to accommodate PEM electrolyser technology if need be. Built in response to local and international demand to meet the need for alternative energy solutions, GESS can provide 230 kWh of electrical power to remote and isolated locations, delivered by solar photovoltaic panels, lithium-ion batteries and the PEMFC. “We decided to channel our expertise, dedication and attention to developing green hydrogen solutions, which resulted in the development of South Africa's first green hydrogen mobile solution and becoming the green powerhouse in South Africa,” Rheinmetall Denel Munition stated in its invitation to Engineering News & Mining Weekly to attend the launch at AAD on September 21. The company, which is jointly owned by Rheinmetall Waffe Munition GmbH (51%) of Germany and Denel South Africa, is best known in munition and plant engineering circles, having been established in 2008 when Denel's Somchem, Swartklip and Naschem became part of the group. The complete modular, self-sustaining, renewable decentralised energy solution is specifically designed to be adaptable to client-specific requirements. It is easily transported between locations, does not rely on external infrastructure, and is sufficiently robust to be operated in several geographical locations. The units can be optimised for maximum hydrogen production in the event of a preference for green chemical production rather than decentralised energy. “We will target both the commercial and defence market. We are also designing a similar system for field hospitals and clinics in remote lactations, which will be able to provide medical grade oxygen as an additional product,” the company stated. The different decentralised energy and green chemical production units will be designed in Somerset West, Cape Town, whereas the various different system integration functions and over-all system manufacturing will be executed in Boskop, Potchefstroom. Although the green hydrogen is predominately produced through electrolysis by an alkaline electrolyser, a platinum-group-metals-using PEM electrolyser can also be used. The unit is designed in such a manner that one can modify each component to accommodate more efficient technology becoming available.

This week's episode focuses on the next level of junior doctor years with conversation and reflection on Community Service. I was privileged to spend time with Dr Naeem Vallee, who was an intern at Bara when I first began clinical rotations at Wits Medical School. Dr Naeem is well-loved by his colleagues, seniors and students alike, and well-known for his use of fountain pens in his clerking notes and impressive skills as a barista and coffee connoisseur… when he's not hard at work serving patients and people at Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital, where he is currently completing his community service year. Although internship and community service journeys are as unique as the doctors who take them, I think you'll find that there is a lot to draw from our conversation and some profound thoughts that can become really actionable and practical things to take into your own workday and career Thank you to our sponsors for this episode!

Sandvik officially launches its new high-tech Khomanani manufacturing facility

Multinational mining and mineral processing equipment manufacturer Sandvik launched its new high-tech head office facility, workshop and manufacturing complex today in Kempton Park, east of Johannesburg, on September 9. The facility was officially opened by President Cyril Ramaphosa. The launch of Sandvik's Khomanani facility is a fulfillment of the industrial giant's investment pledge of R350-million, made at the fourth South African Investment Conference six months ago. “Government is hard at work to create the conditions that will enable businesses – both big and small – to emerge, to grow, to access new markets, to create new products and to hire more employees. The establishment of this facility is testament to that commitment,” Ramaphosa said. The Khomanani manufacturing site is one of Sandvik's biggest and most advanced facilities globally, consolidating operations previously undertaken at five separate sites and accommodating 550 employees. For the first time ever, the company now has its soft rock, hard rock and surface businesses all under one roof. Khomanani, which occupies a 62 000 m2 site, can produce underground loaders with over 60% local content, allowing them to be designated as ‘Proudly South African'. Acting VP of Sandvik Southern Africa's sales area Reinhard Reinartz said Sandvik's mining divisions supply the industry's needs with equipment, parts and services, with the aim to fuel growth in a sustainable way. “Our role is not only as an original-equipment manufacturer (OEM) to our customers, but also to be good corporate citizens. Hence, we are investing in localisation, and this new assembly facility relocates activities from China and Finland to South Africa,” he stated. Localisation is a cornerstone of Sandvik's operations, which supports government's aim to build domestic production capacity to supply local and foreign markets, to support broader economic development and to create more jobs. The investment by Sandvik in local manufacturing capacity is an important vote of confidence in South Africa and its mining sector, the President noted. “With industrialisation and manufacturing being essential pillars of South Africa's Economic Reconstruction and Recovery Plan, it is gratifying to see this commitment turned into reality here in Gauteng,” he said. Reinartz said the decision to invest in South Africa was a simple one. “South Africa is still one of the biggest mining markets in the world, with resources including coal, platinum group metals, gold and iron-ore. With both surface and underground mining, there is no question about investing here,” he enthused. The expansion of local production will make South Africa's economy more inclusive and create more opportunities for new entrants into the industrial sector. Greater investment in mining, localisation and beneficiation all contribute to extending mine life, to increasing mining exports, to skills development and to the creation of employment. The President pointed out that the mining machinery and equipment sector also has significant linkages into other parts of the economy. The companies supplying equipment to the mining industry have important backward linkages to major assembly suppliers, sub-assembly and parts suppliers, specialist component suppliers and raw material suppliers. “Increasing local production will contribute significantly to the revival of South Africa's manufacturing industry,” he said. The machines being assembled at Khomanani are the 12 t LS312 flameproof loader for underground coal operations, as well as the LH115 and LH208 loaders, respectively of 5.5 t and 7.7 t capacity, for underground hard rock mining. Not only are these machines being supplied to the Southern African market but Sandvik can also export them. They are produced to the exact same quality standards as Sandvik machines manufactured at its overseas factories. Moreover, the company is able to produce them at a cost which is very competitive by global standa...

The ultimate long trip is not a trip at all: migrating to another country has much in common with long-term travel, but then, you never go home. Episode 254 is about migrating to Australia in particular - it interests me greatly to hear more about how and why people have moved to my home country, and what they like or dislike about it. First up, I chat with Catherine Marshall, who migrated from South Africa almost two decades ago. As she mentions, we have a significant number of South African migrants here in my hometown of Perth, so it's especially intriguing to hear more about her experiences. I then speak with Anuj, a migrant from India who now lives in Melbourne, after initially coming to Australia to complete postgraduate study. Fifteen years on, he seems very happy here! Finally, I talk to Lucky Legong, another immigrant from South Africa who arrived in Australia more recently after being offered a job at Southern Ocean Lodge on Kangaroo Island. From never having considered Australia as a destination, to migrating here and working for more than four years now in the tourism industry, Lucky has enjoyed her experience of moving to Australia - and that makes me glad!

Coal mine on point of turning acid mine drainage into potable water at no cost

An Mpumalanga coal mine is on the point of entering into an agreement before year-end to have its acid mine drainage water curse turned into potable water at no cost, Mining Weekly can today report. Recovered potassium nitrate, which retails at about R15000/t and which is marketed at about R11000/t to R11500/t, pays for everything – and a return on investment of about 30% is achieved. The system recovers water at a negative -R2 per cubic metre, said Trailblazer Technologies director John Bewsey in a Zoom interview on Monday, November 23. (Also watch attached Creamer Media video.) “In other words, each cubic metre of water that we recover brings us in R2,” he reiterated. Not only mines, but also an organisation in the US and power utility Eskom are also showing interest in the Proudly South African development, which has been assisted by a grant from South Africa’s Technology Innovation Agency. The grant has enabled Trailblazer to build what Bewsey described as a “world-class” demonstration plant at the company’s premises in Krugersdorp. As part of the development, acid mine water has been trucked in from various mines and Trailblazer has been able to turn potable waters polluted with as little 3 000 milligrams per litre right up to water with as much as 50 000 milligrams per litre – “that’s 5%, which really is horrendous. We’ve been able to achieve greater than 99% recovery and the water is so pure it’s actually demineralised quality water, and nearly always below 20 milligrams per litre,” Bewsey enthused. The system is attracting exceptional interest because of its: exceptionally high recovery rate of at least 99% of the water, which is a major improvement on any other water recovery process, including reverse osmosis, which generally recovers about 60% of the water and can only remove the salinity; absence of a brine to store, which is always hazardous and expensive; and ability to turn unwanted salinity into very-much-wanted end products which when sold ends up showing a profit. Because of the expense of storing brines, what many of the mines are doing is to have an electricity intensive process of spraying the brine into the air. In this way, the water evaporates and the solid lands back on the soil “like snow”, spreading the pollution far and wide, and actually achieving nothing, except removing the problem of having to have a dam of brine. But what actually happens is that rain redissolves the pollution, which is put back into the ecosystem. “It doesn’t achieve anything at all other than waste a whole lot of Eskom’s rather scarce power,” said Bewsey. Instead, Trailblazer’s system separates the pollution into cations and anions. “The major pollutants, then, are sodium chloride and sulphate, which is what you get in any saline water, so we can not only treat acid mine water but also saline water, which can be recovered profitably as well. “On the sodium side, we regenerate using nitric acid. From that we make sodium nitrate, which has got very little use. We then add the fertiliser potassium chloride and that precipitates out the least soluble salt, which is sodium chloride, and leaves us with potassium nitrate, which we separate out, and the sale of that potassium nitrate then pays for the entire process. “On the anion side, we’ve then got a mixture of chlorides and sulphates and it depends what that mixture is. On quite a lot of the mines, the chlorides are fairly low and the sulphates are very high, so we turn that into ammonium sulphate, which is the fertiliser that we sell, and convert the chlorides into sodium chloride and add that to the stockpile of sodium chloride that we make from the cation side. “That sodium chloride is a solid material so the cost of trucking it to the coast to put it back into the sea, where it belongs, is a minor cost because we’re trucking solids. We can use a flatbed truck and you’re paying 100% of its weight for transport. In the case of trucking a bri...

FFP2 masks are used mainly in the more difficult situations on mines, in foundries and in woodworking environments, where filtration is needed to keep out fine particles such as dust. The development of Hudaco’s face mask came about when the lockdown idled the group’s production lines but not the minds of its executives. When Hudaco Industries CE Graham Dunford looked at the inactivity of the company’s injection-moulding capacity, coupled to the fortunes companies were having to fork out on non-disposable Covid-19 which utilises layers of FFP2 fabric in the masks filtration system which is endorsed by a leading SA filtration manufacturer however also providing an alternative solution for FFP2 masks, for which certification FFP2 rating is pending, he put to work a group that sources product from more than 800 international suppliers across the industrialised world and carries more than 230 000 line items in stock. In many businesses, masks are discarded daily and “when you’ve got a couple a hundred or even thousands of employees that they have on the mines, when you’re changing masks that are costing you R55 each a day, it costs a lot of money”, said Dunford,. This prompted him to ask Hudaco executive consultant Mike Allnutt to look into ways of getting the company’s injection moulding machines up and running, and at the same time solve the worsening face mask problem. The outcome is a comfortable fitting mask with a filtration system that provides a physical barrier against droplets of 5 microns in size while changeable exhaust filters clean up exiting breath. Consideration was foremost that the mask should be non-disposable, simple to clean for reuse, which would mitigate environmental waste that is experienced with disposable masks. Food-grade specification DEHP-free material or optional medically graded FDA-approved material is moulded and all component polycarbonate materials, such as the filter cartridge, nose shield and non-return valves, including rubber holding straps have the stamp of approval of the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA. Importantly, the changeout of the mask’s filtration system is uncomplicated and the filter can be disinfected without any damage or misalignment. Detailed attention has been given to the means of disposing the users exhaled carbon dioxide providing a clear pathway for inhaled air, which would minimise the content of carbon dioxide air allowing a volume of clean refreshing air to be breathed in by the user. For this purpose, two exhalation non-return filtration valves are separately utilised and are independent from the main filter system intake. The pressure build-up in the mask when exhaling is naturally released via the valves creating a vacuum in the mask, allowing fresh air to flow into the mask.

As parents, we have so many choices on the way we influence our kids. In Episode 94 of The Thoughtful Travel Podcast, the influence we talk about is - of course! - travel. I love the way my son's habits, attitudes and personality reflect his many experiences of travel (and yes, he's very privileged, even though we are usually in the budget traveller category), and I'm happy to know that many other parents feel the same. My first guest is Stina Frantzich Gardiner, a Swedish friend of mine here in Perth, and we chat about how her two children have been influenced by their trips back to Europe - along with how travel influenced Stina herself as she was growing up in Europe. I then chat with Reeva Cutting who has quite a unique experience of travel as a child, when she would fly regularly within South Africa to visit her father. That experience has certainly set her up for a lifelong love of travel and importantly the confidence to do it. Finally, I speak with the always delightful Luke Mackin who speaks to the experience of travelling super-long haul with three very young children - my full respect to Luke and his wife for managing these experiences so well, because I'm not sure I would!

I really love a good cultural difference. It’s true! I find the differences in everyday life around the world utterly fascinating and it’s one of the reasons I keep travelling, trying to hunt more down. In Episode 79 of The Thoughtful Travel Podcast I chat with three other travellers who have also discovered some interesting cultural differences on their travels. First up is Reeva Cutting, who now lives in Australia but grew up in South Africa. She experienced a few differences living in each of these cultures and they’re my favourite kind, about everyday things like filling a car with petrol and going shopping. Next up, Luke Mackin compares experiences in rural Indonesia to his family’s return trips to the United States. His young kids have a different perspective because the US to them is just a place they visit, so it seems kind of amazing! Finally, I talk to James Thomas, who has now lived in Taiwan for several decades after growing up in the United States, and has some interesting observations about the differences between the two places, as well as some of the differences between Taiwan and mainland China.
