High-Temperature Electrolysis: From fundamentals to applications


Add your own review!

Overview

There is a strong need to store electrical energy from fluctuating renewable energy sources such as solar or wind and to decarbonize transport and industry. High-temperature electrolysis is expected to contribute significantly to reach these goals. This reference text provides a detailed guide, including the fundamental and materials aspects of solid oxide and protonic ceramic electrolysis cells at stack and system levels, as well as recent developments. Applications discussed include the production of green hydrogen as well as the combination of high-temperature electrolysis with other processes for the synthesis of ammonia, methane or e-fuels. Highly relevant to the field of renewable energy supply and conversion, the text provides a comprehensive and accessible reference for researchers, engineers, and graduate students from various disciplines. Key Features Provides comprehensive coverage of high-temperature electrolysis using solid oxide cells with oxygen ion and protonic conductors Covers the fundamentals of solid oxide and protonic ceramic electrolysis cells and their applications, including power-to-gas and power-to-X Includes the integration of high-temperature electrolysis into the energy system, and economic analyses of power-to-gas processes Provides a comprehensive and accessible reference for graduate students and researchers, particularly those that are new to the field Includes the latest developments, along with relevant open questions and methods needed to tackle them
