Hydrogen isotope fractionation using graphene and related 2-D materials. Final report
- Clemson Univ., SC (United States)
This report provides a final technical report and listing of products from the research on a research project from Clemson university, focused on use of two-dimensional materials within membranes to accomplish hydrogen ion separations. The project used CVD graphene and related 2D materials to accomplish hydrogen / deuterium / tritium (H/D/T) separation during water electrolysis in proton-exchange-membrane (PEM)-style cells. 2D materials were incorporated into PEM cells at varying places with the aim of accomplishing isotopic sieving through 2D materials by selective hydron transport at high rates and with high selectivity. The project work scope included studies on H/D separation with small-scale cells at Clemson, collaborative work between Clemson and SRNL on computational modeling and tritium separations, and issues associated with scaleup.
