Electrocatalytic water splitting, commonly known as water electrolysis has proven to be a cost-effective technology when it comes to the production of hydrogen through renewable energy.
Platinum-Free Hydrogen Filling Stations
* Hydrogen being one of the most sustainable fuel adds great value to carbon-free transportation.
* Hydrogen production techniques involving oxidization of precious metals are not only energy intensive but also have an impact on the environment.
* Water electrolysis when used in hydrogen production results in zero greenhouse gas emissions.
* Most alkaline electrolyzers with base metal catalysts run only when precious metals (iridium oxide anodes and platinum cathodes) are used.
* Using high conductivity exchange membranes for the production of renewable fuels and chemicals for energy storage results in reduced cost of systems in use.
* Dioxide Materials offers high-caliber anion exchange membrane water electrolyzers and components that can be run on nickel, iron and cobalt, which are comparatively inexpensive, making them significantly cost-effective.
* We also deal in alkaline exchange membrane water electrolyzers that are a promising technology on the lab scale.
