Hydrogen Recovery in Electrodialytic‐Based Technologies Applied to Environmental Contaminated Matrices

Biomimmetic ZrO 2 @ PdO nanocomposites: fabrication, characterization, and water splitting potential exploration

“…Coherent and inexpensive water splitting assemblies would be a critical technological advancement in the pursuit of a hydrogen‐based fuel and energy economy 9‐12 . The electrochemical (EC) splitting of water generates protons and electrons that can be combined to produce H 2 as well as molecular oxygen as a byproduct 13‐15 . This concept offers a solution to both energy and environmental issues by utilizing the earth’s abundant water and immense sunlight reservoir.…”

“…As is well known, Ir‐ and Ru‐based compounds continue to be the benchmark electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), whereas Pt‐based materials are a good choice for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, their large‐scale applicability is hindered due to their scarcity and high cost 12‐19 . For this purpose, extensive research has been devoted for the development of highly active, long‐lasting, and low‐cost transition metal oxide‐based elctrocatalyst.…”

“…[9][10][11][12] The electrochemical (EC) splitting of water generates protons and electrons that can be combined to produce H 2 as well as molecular oxygen as a byproduct. [13][14][15] This concept offers a solution to both energy and environmental issues by utilizing the earth's abundant water and immense sunlight reservoir. However, EC water splitting at a large scale is really hampered by the slow anodic reaction (oxygen evolution reaction), which has slow kinetics and necessitates large over-potentials.…”

[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] For this purpose, extensive research has been devoted for the development of highly active, long-lasting, and low-cost transition metal oxidebased elctrocatalyst. ZrO 2 is a fascinating metal because of its abundance and wide range of usage in electronic devices, making it ideal for a wide range of applications.…”
