New demonstration plant will enable tests on parts big enough for commercially-sized systems
A technology company that has developed a metallic alloy coating that could double hydrogen production from alkaline electrolysers and halve the stack capex cost for H2 projects has today (Thursday) commissioned a demonstration plant to scale-up testing to commercially-sized systems.
Oxford NanoSystems’ (ONS) so-called “nanoFlux” alloy coating encourages the formation of more, smaller bubbles on the electrodes within an electrolyser, which in turn allow more electrons to move throughout the system — enabling the use of higher electrical currents and more hydrogen production in any given time period.
