Solid polymer electrolyte water electrolysis technology development for large-scale hydrogen production (design phase). Final report March 1979-December 1980
This Final Report covers the GRI-sponsored effort during 1979 and 1980 toward development of large-scale water electrolyzers utilizing solid polymer electrolyte technology. In 1979, this effort was aimed at design of a 10 sq ft (active area) cell and module. During 1980 the effort encompassed front end manufacturing development of the 10 sq ft cell. This effort was part of a joint development program. Other sponsors included the U.S. Department of Energy, the Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation, the Empire State Electric Energy Research Corporation, and the General Elctric Company. The 10 sq ft cell is a scale-up of the 2.5 sq ft cell developed under the joint program. The design utilizes molded carbon current collectors and pneumatically-loaded compression techniques.
