Abstract:Dihydrogen (H 2 ) constitutes a promising energy carrier for transporting part of the world's energy demand and concomitantly for reducing toxic emissions. Water electrolysis powered by renewable energy would provide H 2 with a small carbon footprint. To save global fresh water, seawater electrolysis has attracted much attention in recent years, since it represents 96.5% of the Earth's resources and is abundant worldwide. However, seawater's composition is complex, which poses problems for direct seawater spli… Show more
