Already involved in the Program & Priority Research Equipment – Decarbonized Hydrogen (PEPR-H2) through the EquipPEX+ DurabilitHy and the PEMFC95 project, LEMTA teams have, this year again, successfully responded to the latest call for 2021 projects: 4 projects submitted, 4 projects selected by the ANR!
♦ DAEMONHyC | Durable Anion Exchange Membrane Electrolyzer for large-scale green hydrogen production
[Durable Anion Exchange Membrane electrOlyzer for largescale greeN HYdrogen produCtion]
The electrochemical performance and stability of alkaline membranes and ionomers have been greatly improved in recent years, paving the way for anion exchange membrane water electrolyzers (AEMWE). These systems combine the cost advantages of conventional alkaline electrolysis with those of proton exchange membrane water electrolysers. Through a multidisciplinary consortium, we will develop stable and high performance membranes, ionomers and precious metal-free catalysts. In situ and operando characterization methods associated with a multi-scale model will allow us to obtain relevant information at all scales from the catalytic site to the elementary cell. The technological valorization of the results (rise in TRL), will be fast thanks to the involvement of two French industrialists whose ambitions in the production of decarbonated hydrogen are notable.
