Abstract

This project offers an overview of the technologies for hydrogen production from wastewater. Electrolysis is a promising option for hydrogen production from renewable resources. An electrolysis cell was designed to produce a useful hydrogen gas, from the wastewater treatment process. The electrical energy efficiency of commercial water electrolyzers is normally limited by internal energy losses; heat generated at economic current density levels exceeds the heat required to maintain the temperature of the electrolyte, and cooling must be used. Development of activated electrode systems and of improved electrode geometries promises to reduce these losses to the point where efficiency will be limited instead by the requirement that sufficient heat is generated internally to maintain the electrolyte temperature. The limitation on electrical energy efficiency then becomes thermodynamic. Options indicated for development of advanced technology are considered. These are then related to the approaches being taken in major worldwide programs which are working to reduce the cost of hydrogen production from wastewater.
