Electrolyzers
The Challenge: Find an optimal structure for the gas diffusion electrode
PEM electrolysis is one of the key technologies for decarbonization of the energy industry and automotive industry. It enables the use of surplus renewable electricity for hydrogen production and thereby connects the industrial sectors of electricity, heat and transport.
For both H2O and CO2 electrolysis, the construction of porous transport layers plays a crucial role. Intelligent material design of these transport layers can optimize electrode efficiency, longevity and product selectivity. Here, GeoDict offers the possibility to specifically improve critical material parameters in the nanometer to millimeter range and thus sustainably reduce costs in development and production.
