Electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution and in-situ observation of hydrogen microbubbles evolution on stainless steel meshes with various mesh numbers
Stainless steel mesh (SSM) is a cost-effective, readily available catalyst and conductive substrate for large-scale hydrogen production in microbial electrolysis cells (MEC). This study reveals that variations in wire diameter and aperture size of SSM affect both the electroactive area for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the formation and diffusion of hydrogen micro-nano bubbles, impacting MEC performance. In-situ hydrogen microbubble observation shows that 60-mesh SSM provides optimal hydrogen evolution due to its large electrochemical active area and many nucleation sites, minimizing the “bubble shielding effect”. The SSM-60 MEC achieves the highest hydrogen recovery (75 ± 5.1%) and energy recovery efficiency (85 ± 6.2%). This study combines electroactivity testing with microscopic in-situ reaction observation to provide a novel strategy for understanding efficient hydrogen evolution catalysts.
期刊介绍:
The objective of the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy is to facilitate the exchange of new ideas, technological advancements, and research findings in the field of Hydrogen Energy among scientists and engineers worldwide. This journal showcases original research, both analytical and experimental, covering various aspects of Hydrogen Energy. These include production, storage, transmission, utilization, enabling technologies, environmental impact, economic considerations, and global perspectives on hydrogen and its carriers such as NH3, CH4, alcohols, etc.
The utilization aspect encompasses various methods such as thermochemical (combustion), photochemical, electrochemical (fuel cells), and nuclear conversion of hydrogen, hydrogen isotopes, and hydrogen carriers into thermal, mechanical, and electrical energies. The applications of these energies can be found in transportation (including aerospace), industrial, commercial, and residential sectors.
