Enhanced Solar-to-Fuel Efficiency of Ceria-Based Thermochemical Cycles via Integrated Electrochemical Oxygen Pumping

Sophia Haussener, Meng Lin, Clemens Gregor Suter

The solar thermochemical cycle based on ceria is a promising route for renewable fuel production. The solar-to-fuel efficiency of a thermochemical reactor is highly dependent on the oxygen removal during the reduction step. Conventional nitrogen sweeping ( ...

Integrated solar-driven high-temperature electrolysis operating with concentrated irradiation

Jan Van Herle, Sophia Haussener, Stefan Diethelm, Meng Lin, Clemens Gregor Suter

High-temperature electrolysis for reducing H2O (and CO2) to H2 (and CO) converts concentrated solar energy into fuels and chemical feedstock. We invented an integrated reactor concept comprising a solar cavity receiver for reactant heating, a solid oxide e ...

The effect of SO2 on the Ni-YSZ electrode of a solid oxide electrolyzer cell operated in co-electrolysis

Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Guillaume Jeanmonod

In this work, the effect of sulphur poisoning of the Ni-YSZ electrode of an SOEC operated in co-electrolysis mode was investigated. Short-term tests with exposure up to 5 ppmv of SO2 were performed at OCV and under polarization (0.25 A cm−2). The two-stage ...

Power-to-methane via co-electrolysis of H2O and CO2: The effects of pressurized operation and internal methanation

François Maréchal, Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Ligang Wang, Tzu-En Lin

This paper presents a model-based investigation to handle the fundamental issues for the design of co-electrolysis based power-to-methane at the levels of both the stack and system: the role of CO2 in co-electrolysis, the benefits of employing pressurized ...

Steam and Co-Electrolysis Sensitivity Analysis on Ni-YSZ Supported Cells

Jan Van Herle, Stefan Diethelm, Giorgio Rinaldi

The present paper investigates the variation in performances in steam electrolysis and co-electrolysis of steam/CO2 on SOEC single cells.In electrolysis mode, a sensitivity analysis was performed looking in particular at the effects of temperature (750°C a ...

Composite membranes for alkaline electrolysis based on polysulfone and mineral fillers

Andreas Züttel

Mineral-based membranes for high temperature alkaline electrolysis were developed by a phase inversion process with polysulfone as binder. The long-term stability of new mineral fillers: wollastonite, forsterite and barite was assessed by 8000 h-long leach ...
