(676h) Electrocatalysis Beyond Molecular Transformations

Author

Haotian Wang - Presenter, Rice University
Electrolyzers have been refined to reach a minimized gap between the electrodes, exemplified by the 'zero gap' membrane electrode assembly in water electrolyzers. In this talk I will discuss the development of the porous solid electrolyte reactor, where this gap is re-opened to fully leverage ionic transport for broader applications beyond molecular transformations in electrolysis.
