Proposed DWE process. Schematic illustration of the proposed DWE process with continuous generation of H2 and O2 in separate electrolytic and catalytic cells using Br–/BrO3– as a soluble redox couple. The oxidized bromate-rich (BrO3–) electrolyte flows from the bottom of the electrolytic cell to the bottom of the catalytic cell, where it is reduced to bromide (Br–) by a catalyst and flows from the top of the catalytic cell back to the top of the electrolytic cell. The green coating represents a semipermeable chromium hydroxide layer. Credit: Nature Materials (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s41563-023-01767-y
A group of researchers from the Technion Faculty of Materials Science and Engineering has presented a new technology for producing green hydrogen using renewable energy. Their breakthrough was recently published in Nature Materials.
The novel technology embodies significant advantages compared to other processes for producing green
