Electrochemical and chemical cycle for high-efficiency decoupled water splitting in a near-neutral electrolyte
Nature Materials, Published online: 09 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41563-023-01767-y
Hydrogen produced by water splitting using renewable electricity is key to achieve net-zero carbon emissions. Decoupling hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions during electrolysis is attractive but efficiency and operational challenges remain. A process producing hydrogen and oxygen in separate cells and supporting continuous operation in a membraneless system is now proposed.Nature Materials, Published online: 09 January 2024; doi:10.1038/s41563-023-01767-yHydrogen produced by water splitting using renewable electricity is key to achieve net-zero carbon emissions.
