Header Electrode for AWE De Nora

Electrode Package

The heart of Electrolyzer

The Electrode Package is a complete solution developed by De Nora to install its activated electrodes into a perfect and "live" ZERO GAP configuration, ensuring anode and cathode contact with the diaphragm in any operating condition.

Electrode Package solution includes, in addition to the coated electrodes and flow fields, other cell internals such as the cell bipolar plates, the anode/cathode separator (membrane or diaphragm) and the related gasketing system.

BENEFITS

The Electrode Package is designed to pursue a lower Hydrogen Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), optimizing the overall power consumption while maximizing the operating current density, which drives a reduction of the overall AWE plant footprint. The solution allows to maintain a low manufacturing cost of the electrolyzer.

Reduce your Total Cost of Hydrogen

Installing the De Nora package into an existing AWE cell architecture can increase the operating CD by more than two times, maintaining or even reducing the cell voltage and, therefore, the specific energy consumption.

De Nora's Electrode Package is a solution adaptable to the customer’s electrolytic cell-specific design.
The customization process is developed through De Nora’s engineering department, and we could foresee a joint testing phase where the customer is supported by our expertise. 

De Nora supports your business in all product life cycles, ensuring continuous performance enhancement with its tailored solutions and design. De Nora offers long-term supply and maintenance agreements to make your Electrode Package the most performing solution.
