“…To solve the above problems, some effective and inspiring strategies have been proposed. (i) Design of selective, active, and corrosion-resistant seawater HER/OER catalysts; 14,17,19,20 (ii) introduction of alternative anodic oxidation reactions to replace the saline/seawater OER; 21 (iii) construction of an alkaline seawater electrolysis system to improve the OER occurrence conditions and inhibit the CER; 22–27 (iv) integration of an in situ water purification process or seawater reverse osmosis system. 13,28,29 Apart from these means, considering the large E 0 difference between the saline CER/OER and alkaline OER, 18 it is likely that replacing complex saline anodic reactions with the thermodynamically favorable alkaline OER will also be an effective method to realize energy-saving and durable saline electrolysis.…”
