MEA Test Hardware for Alkaline Electrolysis
The MEA Test Hardware for Alkaline Electrolysis is designed for electrochemical testing in highly alkaline and corrosive environments, including those involving KOH solutions. It is suitable for a range of applications, such as Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis (AEMWE), conventional alkaline water electrolysis, and compatible CO₂ electrolysis configurations.
This versatile testing fixture provides a reliable platform for laboratory-scale evaluation of electrochemical materials and components under various operating conditions. It can be used to investigate the performance of anion exchange membranes (AEMs), anode and cathode catalysts, catalyst-coated electrodes, and other electrochemical components for research and development purposes.
Flow Field Design
The standard configuration features a single-serpentine flow field. Parallel flow fields and other customized flow channel designs are available upon request.
