ALKALINE WATER ELECTROLYZER MARKET

 

INTRODUCTION

An alkaline water electrolyzer is a device that splits water into hydrogen and oxygen gas using electricity in a liquid alkaline solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH).

 

It has two electrodes separated by a diaphragm that allows hydroxide ions (OH-) to go from one electrode to the other while preventing the resultant gases from mixing. The electrodes are often made of nickel-based metals, which are stable and efficient water-splitting catalysts.

 

Alkaline water electrolysis is an established technique that has been used in the chemical industry for decades and is capable of being fueled by renewable energy sources such as solar and wind.  It has the potential to provide clean hydrogen fuel for use in transportation, power generation, and industrial.

 

Some of the advantages of alkaline water electrolysis are:It is a mature and safe technology that has been used for many industrial applications, Itcan scale up to large production capacities of hydrogen, It uses cheaper catalysts than other types of water electrolysis, such as nickel-based metals instead of platinum group metals.

 

It has higher durability due to an exchangeable electrolyte and lower dissolution of anodic catalystSome of the disadvantages of alkaline water electrolysis are that it is very energy demanding with high capital investment, operation, and maintenance costs

 

It has a slightly higher power consumption than other types of water electrolysis, such as proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis and electrolysis of water vaporIt requires a high concentration of alkaline solution (20-40 wt.%) which can be corrosive and hazardousIt operates at a low current density (0.2-0.4 A/cm 2 ) and a high cell voltage (1.8-2.40 V) which reduces the efficiency and performance of the system.
