LOW ENERGY AND HIGH EFFICIENCY HYDROGEN GENERATION THROUGH WATER ELECTROLYSIS

CSIC and the Polytechnic University of Valencia have developed a water electrolysis system that, thanks to an innovative structure of the electrodes, allows concentrating the electric field in the desired areas in order to facilitate the dissociation of the electrolyte, maximizing the efficiency of the reaction and reducing the voltage requirement and the energy consumption.

Industrial partners are being sought to collaborate through a patent licence agreement to use the technology in the electrochemical industry or in the production of hydrogen through water electrolysis.
