January 17th 2018: Two projects granted within the NWO Mat4Sus project
“CO-TECH: CO-Tolerance for Electrochemical Compression of Hydrogen” – Hyet Hydrogen, Baira Donoeva (Utrecht University) and Bastian Mei (University of Twente)
In this public-private collaboration the partners will develop new catalytic materials to prevent CO poisoning of anode materials. The partners will follow two strategies to improve the CO resistance:
• pre-treatment of reformate streams by preferential oxidation of CO (CO PROX)
• the development of CO tolerant electrocatalysts.
We are looking forward to 2-years of exciting research!
