    Fabrication and Performance Evaluation of Graphene-Supported Ptru Electrocatalyst for High-Temperature Electrochemical Hydrogen Purification
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Bal, Ilay Bilge; Durmus, Gizem Nur Bulanik; Devrim, Yilser
    The main aim of this study is to investigate the high-temperature electrochemical hydrogen purification (HT-ECHP) performances of graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) support material decorated with platinum (Pt) and platinum-ruthenium (PtRu) nanoparticles prepared by microwave irradiation technique. Prepared catalysts coupled to the phosphoric acid doped polybenzimidazole (PBI) membrane for HT-ECHP application. The structural and electrochemical properties of the catalysts were examined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Transition electron microscopy (TEM) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) analyses. The characterization results indicate that the catalysts provided the necessary properties for HT-ECHP application. The HT-ECHP performances are investigated with reformate gas mixture containing hydrogen (H2), carbon dioxide (CO2) and carbon monoxide (CO) in the range of 140-180 & DEG;C. The results show that the electrochemical purification performances of the catalysts increase with increasing operating temperature. The highest H2 purification performance is obtained with PtRu/GNP catalyst. The high electrochemical H2 purification performance of the PtRu/GNP catalyst can be attributed to the strong synergistic interactions between Pt and Ru particles decorated on the GNP. These results advocate that the PtRu/GNP catalyst is a hopeful catalyst for HT-ECHP application. & COPY; 2023 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    High-Temperature Electrochemical Hydrogen Separation From Reformate Gases Using Pbi/Mof Composite Membrane
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Durmus, Gizem Nur Bulanik; Eren, Enis Oguzhan; Devrim, Yilser; Colpan, C. Ozgur; Ozkan, Necati
    In this paper, the high-temperature electrochemical Hydrogen (H2) purification perfor-mance of a polybenzimidazole/UIO-66 metal-organic framework (PBI/UIO-66) membrane is investigated and analyzed at different values of current, temperature, and reformate feed composition. Purification measurements show that a significant reduction in gas impu-rities can be obtained. In the performance tests, three different ratios of reformate gas (RG) (H2:carbon dioxide (CO2):carbon monoxide (CO)) as RG-1= (75:25:0), RG-2= (75:22:3), and RG-3= (95:0:5) were used. The highest purification values were observed at 160 & DEG;C as 99.999%, 99.931%, and 99.708% for RG-1, RG-2, and RG-3, respectively. The obtained results show that an electrochemical H2 purification (ECHP) based on PBI/UIO-66 composite membrane is promising for H2 purification.& COPY; 2023 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC.
