Investigation of Charge–Discharging Behavior of Metal Oxide–Based Anode Electrocatalysts for Alkaline Water Electrolysis to Suppress Degradation due to Reverse Current

Abstract: In the bipolar-type alkaline water electrolysis powered by renewable energy, electrocatalysts are degraded by repeated potential change associated with the generation of reverse current. If an electrode has large discharge capacity, the opposite electrode on the same bipolar plate is degraded by the reverse current. In this study, discharge capacity of various transition metal-based electrocatalysts was investigated to clarify the determining factors of electrocatalysts on the reverse current and durability.

“…It is obvious that the centre-electrodes must discharge must faster compared to the end-electrodes. Neighbouring anodes and cathodes sharing the same bipolar plate must also process the same current when passing through the bipolar plate (14). Modelling the cell voltages under discharge in the combination with shuntcurrents on larger stacks, i.e.…”

“…The second major implication of shunt-current and large electrolyzer stacks in connection to renewable energy operation and intermittent operation, is the electrode stability during shutdown. The discharge of hydrogen-and oxygen-electrodes and how much one or the other will discharge as discussed in (12,13,14,15) is perhaps better understood by simply inspecting the cyclic voltammogram of a typical hydrogen-and oxygen-electrode (using the term anode and cathode may get confusing when discussing current reversal as the hydrogen-electrode switches from being a cathode under operation to become an anode under current reversal and visa versa for the oxygen-electrode). Figure 5 shows the cyclic voltammogram of a platinum group metal (PGM)-based hydrogen electrode and a bare nickel as the oxygen electrode after being used in a AWE system, measured at 20 mV/s in 1 M KOH at room temperature and measured against a Gaskatel Reversible Hydrogen Electrode (RHE).…”
