Two NWO ECCM KICkstart DE-NL projects awarded to Aayan Banerjee to explore promising pathways to advance ceramic-membrane based electrolysers.
In collaboration with EIFER and Shell, the first project "CO2 methanation using high temperature proton-conducting ceramic electrolysers" will look to demonstrate proof-of-concept for CO2 methanation directly inside a proton-ceramic steam electrolysis cell.
In collaboration with TNO, KIT, Sunfire and Shell, the second project "Solid Oxide Electrolyser modelling: Exploring scale-up of cell size" will investigate the maximum threshold for planar cell area of solid oxide cells based on mechanical stability (specifically crack initiation and propagation) under operation.
We are keen to get started on both projects!
