Conventionally, mechanical compressors are used for pressurization of hydrogen; however, this technology has disadvantages such as noise and vibration during operation due to their moving parts. Electrochemical hydrogen compressors (ECHC) have emerged as an alternative solution, as these devices can purify and compress hydrogen electrochemically in a single device. This review provides a comprehensive overview of key components and management strategies of the ECHC systems. This review will also provide an overview of different hydrogen compression technologies and provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments and current issues and future of ECHCs. For this purpose, firstly, the advantages and disadvantages of ECHC compared to mechanical compressors are explained. Then, recent studies on hydrogen purification methods are given. The working principle of ECHC, material development studies and mathematical modeling of ECHCs are also discussed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessElectrochemical hydrogen compressorsHydrogenHydrogen purificationHydrogen compressionReviewQ1494WOS:000636270600004
