Abstract: A method for producing hydrogen gas through electrolysis of a salt water solution using an electrode with a sedimentary rock portion includes placing a first electrode comprising a metallic material in a salt water solution. The method further includes placing a second electrode comprising a metallic material portion and a sedimentary rock portion into the salt water solution. The method further includes allowing the salt water solution to permeate at least a portion of the sedimentary rock portion. The method further includes connecting a direct current (DC) power supply to the first and second electrodes. The method further includes applying, using the power supply, a DC voltage between the first and second electrodes, thereby causing electrolysis of at least a portion of the salt water solution and producing hydrogen gas.

Abstract: A copper integrated electrode with a convertible oxidation state, a preparation method and an application method are provided. The preparation process is based on an electrochemically induced self-growth method. Copper foam is used as a precursor, soaked in a graphene oxide solution, dried, calcined at high temperature and annealed, and then treated with an alkali solution to obtain the copper integrated electrode with the convertible oxidation state. The working electrode prepared by the nano-catalytic material of the present invention has good denitrification performance in the environmental field, which can achieve nearly 100% nitrate removal rate, nearly 100% nitrogen selectivity and long-term stability. These properties are due to the prepared working electrode having an oxidizable copper (I, II/0, I), oxygen vacancy (O) and a one-dimensional nanowire structure. The structure can regulate the adsorption and reduction of intermediate products, resulting in nearly 100% nitrate removal rate and nearly 100% nitrogen selectivity.

Abstract: An electrochemical cell for wastewater treatment is disclosed comprising a catalyst coated membrane, an open pore mesh placed next to the catalyst coated membrane, on each side of the membrane, and a compression frame placed next to each of the open pore meshes. The open pore meshes and the compression frames are made of a conductive material. Each compression frame has compression arms spread within the area delimited by the perimeter of the frame to apply a uniform compression force across the anode and cathode active areas through fasteners which protrude through the compression arms, the open pore meshes and the catalyst coated membrane. A stack comprising at least one such electrochemical cell is immersed in a reactor tank containing the wastewater to be treated.

Abstract: Sodium chlorate is produced industrially via electrolysis of brine and is thus an energy intensive process. An improved cathode for this and other industrial processes is a low nickel content stainless steel whose surface has been suitably modified. With an appropriate amount of surface roughening, the cathode provides for improved overvoltages during electrolysis while still maintaining corrosion resistance.
