While traditional standard H-cells require gases like carbon dioxide (CO₂) or oxygen (O₂) to dissolve in a liquid electrolyte first, flow cells feature a continuous supply of gas directly to the back of the electrode and a continuous liquid electrolyte across the front of the electrode. This creates a three-phase boundary where the gas, liquid, and solid catalyst meet inside the pores of the gas diffusion electrode (GDE), facilitating rapid electron transfer and chemical reactions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction for example, to improve the CO₂ conversion rate, electrochemical CO2RR is carried out using a continuous flow equipment to overcome the barrier of mass transport. providing a higher CO₂ concentration on the electrocatalyst surface and a much shorter transmission path, CO₂RR in flow cells make the industrial process of carbon dioxide reduction possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWorking Electrode (GDE): \u003c\/em\u003eA hydrophobic GDE layer loaded with a catalyst. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003eLiquid and Gas Chambers:\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eTo provide continuous flow of gas and liquid in separate chambers for better separation and higher efficiency\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003eThree-phase Boundary: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003eThe gas and liquid phases meet at the solid catalyst surface where electrochemical reaction takes place under applied potential\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlow cells are widely performing heavy-duty electrochemical tasks where standard electrochemical cell fall short.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCO₂ Reduction (CO₂RR): \u003c\/em\u003eConverting CO₂ into valuable industrial chemicals and fuels (like ethylene or formic acid).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOxygen reduction (O2RR):\u003c\/em\u003e Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWater Electrolysis: \u003c\/em\u003eSplitting water to produce clean hydrogen gas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFuel Cells \u0026amp; Metal-Air Batteries: \u003c\/em\u003eCombining oxygen and hydrogen efficiently to generate electricity or store energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"buy\"\u003eBuy Flow Cells\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelated categories: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/spectroelectrochemical-cells\" title=\"Spectroelectrochemical Cells\"\u003espectroelectrochemical cells\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ossila.com\/collections\/equipment-accessories\" title=\"Equipment Accessories\"\u003eequipment accessories\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/electrodes\" title=\"Electrodes\"\u003eelectrodes\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/electrochemistry\" title=\"electrochemistry\"\u003eelectrochemistry\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[[split]]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"technical-support\"\u003eTechnical Support\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[[contact]]\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/www.ossila.com\/collections\/flow-cells.oembed","provider":"Ossila","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
