High-speed 4D neutron computed tomography for mass transport in proton exchange membrane water electrolysers
Energy demand and environmental pollution have become the two major problems to which societies are seeking immediate remedies. Proton exchange membrane water electrolysers (PEMWEs) are a potential solution to the increasing demand for inconsistent renewable energy technologies and seasonal storage. One of the long-standing challenges for efficient and reliable PEMWE performance is accomplishing effective mass transport of water and product gas. Novel flow-field and liquid-gas diffusion layer designs serve as a simple and effective means of optimising the mass transport processes. However, an appropriate characterisation tools for studying of the water dynamics within operating PEMWEs has not been established. The aim of this proposal is to use the unique benefits of NeXT-Grenoble instruments to provide the first-ever report of the 4D operando water distribution across different parts of PEMWEs. This has major implications for PEMWEs design and operation and be of interest to academics and technology developers alike.
