Electro Catalyst Heating

The Electro Catalyst Heating family is covering a way of arranging a temperature gradient in the electrolyzer by increasing a temperature of the catalyst structure. The innovation is targeted towards the production of green hydrogen using PEM electrolyzers.

V Desmaris, F Wenger • November 8, 2023

The Inno­va­tion: An elec­trolyz­er com­pris­ing a heat­ing appa­ra­tus oper­at­ed by prop­a­gat­ing elec­tro­mag­net­ic waves or alter­nat­ing mag­net­ic fields.

Inno­va­tion abstract: The Elec­tro Cat­a­lyst Heat­ing fam­i­ly is cov­er­ing an elec­trolyz­er com­pris­ing a first and a sec­ond elec­trode and an ion exchange mem­brane arranged in-between the first and the sec­ond elec­trode, where each elec­trode com­pris­es a con­duc­tive ele­ment. At least one of the elec­trodes com­pris­es a cat­a­lyst struc­ture, the cat­a­lyst struc­ture com­pris­ing an elec­tri­cal­ly con­duc­tive mate­r­i­al. The elec­trolyz­er also com­pris­es at least one feed­ing means, where­in the feed­ing means is arranged to intro­duce a viable elec­tro­mag­net­ic field. The vari­able elec­tro­mag­net­ic field is arranged into the elec­trolyz­er with the pur­pose to cre­ate a tem­per­a­ture gra­di­ent in the elec­trolyz­er by increas­ing a tem­per­a­ture of the cat­a­lyst structure.
