   Abstract : Better utilization of renewable sources of energy and recovery of resources from waste streams are important challenges for researchers. Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are new technologies which e.g. could be used to produce green energy from waste sources or store renewable electricity as chemical fuels. READ MORE

4. 2. Water splitting by heterogeneous catalysis

   Author : Henrik Svengren; Mats Johnsson; Tomas Edvinsson; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Faradaic efficiency; electrocatalysis; electrolysis; water oxidation; hydrogen reduction; H2; O2; mass spectrometry; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

   Abstract : A sustainable solution for meeting the energy demands at our planet is by utilizing wind-, solar-, wave-, thermal-, biomass- and hydroelectric power. These renewable and CO2 emission-free energy sources are highly variable in terms of spatial and temporal availability over the Earth, introducing the need for an appropriate method of storing and carrying energy.

   Abstract : Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) are systems with microbial communities in the form of biofilms on electrode surfaces. The electrogenic bacteria in the anode biofilm act as catalysts for the oxidization of organic compounds, leading to release of electrons, generation of electrical current, and production of hydrogen and methane at the cathode.

7. 5. Molten carbonate fuel cells for electrolysis

   Author : Lan Hu; Carina Lagergren; Göran Lindbergh; Søren Højgaard Jensen; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Durability; electrode kinetics; gas phase mass transport; molten carbonate electrolysis cell; molten carbonate fuel cell; performance; reversible.; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : The molten carbonate fuel cell has evolved to current megawatt-scale commercial power plants. When using the fuel cell for electrolysis, it provides a promising option for producing fuel gases such as hydrogen and syngas. The cell can thereby operate reversibly as a dual energy converter for electricity generation and fuel gas production. READ MORE
