Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis at 10 A ⋅ cm−2 Over 800 Hours

Anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE) is a potentially cost-effective technology for green hydrogen production. Although the normal current densities of AEMWEs are below 3 A ⋅ cm−2, operating them at higher current densities represents an effi ...

Well-Defined Co2 Dual-Atom Catalyst Breaks Scaling Relations of Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Xile Hu, Yiwei Zheng

The 4-electron oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) under alkaline conditions is central to the development of non-noble metal-based hydrogen fuel cell technologies. However, the kinetics of ORR are constrained by scaling relations, where the adsorption free en ...

Anion Exchange Ionomers Enable Sustained Pure-Water Electrolysis Using Platinum-Group-Metal-Free Electrocatalysts

Xile Hu, Fang Song, Nanjun Chen, Ariana Serban, Yiwei Zheng

Anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE) is a rising technology that offers potential advantages in cost and scalability over proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer (PEMWE) technology. However, AEMWEs that stably operate in pure water still ...

Synergistic interactions between PtRu catalyst and nitrogen-doped carbon support boost hydrogen oxidation

Andreas Schueler, Jeremy Luterbacher, Xile Hu, Anna Krammer, Weiyan Ni, Lichen Bai, Miyeon Chang, Seunghwa Lee, Songlan Sun, Seongmin Jin, Yiwei Zheng

Hydroxide exchange membrane fuel cell (HEMFC) is a potentially cost-effective energy conversion technology. However, current state-of-the-art HEMFCs require a high loading of platinum-group-metal (PGM) catalysts, especially for the hydrogen oxidation react ...

The Function of Two Radical-SAM Enzymes, HcgA and HcgG, in the Biosynthesis of the [Fe]-Hydrogenase Cofactor

Xile Hu, Huijie Pan, Yiwei Zheng

In the biosynthesis of the iron-guanylylpyridinol (FeGP) cofactor, 6-carboxymethyl-5-methyl-4-hydroxy-2-pyridinol (1) is 3-methylated to form 2, then 4-guanylylated to form 3, and converted into the full cofactor. HcgA-G proteins catalyze the biosynthetic ...
