Tech Talk - Hydrogen Fuel Cell, PEM & AEM Electrolyzer Membranes - Hyfindr Wu

In this Hyfindr Tech Talk, Tim Wu from Hyproof discusses the role of membranes in hydrogen technology, focusing on their function in electrolyzers and fuel cells. Membranes enable hydrogen production by separating water into hydrogen and oxygen, crucial for hydrogen energy. There are three main types: alkaline, proton exchange (PEM), and anion exchange membranes (AEM). Alkaline membranes are older and cheaper but have safety risks due to larger pores. PEMs, common today, allow efficient hydrogen production but require costly catalysts like platinum. AEM combines benefits of alkaline and PEM, offering safer, more cost-effective operation without expensive catalysts, potentially driving down hydrogen production costs for broader adoption. #hydrogen #fuelcell #engineers #technology #tech #sealing #hyproof #membrane #membranestructures #highpressure #pem #aem #hydrogenrefueling #innovations #h2energy #alkaline #anion Jump right into the discussion topics: 0:00 Hyfindr Tech Talk 0:30 Welcome, Tim Wu 0:50 What is a membrane? 2:40 Applications for membranes in fuel cell and electrolysers 3:43 Types of membranes 6:50 Difference of membrane & diaphragm 9:30 PEM electrolyer or AEM electrolyser? 10:30 Material of AEM 11:03 Working of membrane in an electrolyser 13:50 Characteristics of a good membrane 16:20 Lifespan of membranes in electrolyser or fuel cell 21:18 Manufacturing of electrolyser or fuel cell membrane 23:05 Application areas of membranes in the hydrogen economy 24:20 Future developments of membranes in the hydrogen economy 25:46 Like and Subscribe Executive Summary of Tech Talk Script: In this Hyfindr Tech Talk, Tim Wu from Hyproof explains the importance of membranes in hydrogen technology, specifically their applications in electrolyzers and fuel cells, which are crucial to the hydrogen economy. Membranes work by separating water into hydrogen and oxygen, enabling hydrogen production for fuel cells, commonly used in vehicles and other power systems. Wu describes three main types of membranes: alkaline, proton exchange (PEM), and anion exchange (AEM), each with distinct properties suited to different needs. Alkaline membranes are the oldest technology, often used in electrolyzers but considered less safe due to their larger pore sizes, which allow some hydrogen crossover. This crossover increases explosion risk when hydrogen and oxygen mix. While cost-effective, alkaline membranes require constant power to operate efficiently, and their use is being phased out as safer options emerge. PEMs are the current standard for hydrogen applications, especially in fuel cells, due to their ability to produce hydrogen efficiently and resist power fluctuations. However, PEMs rely on costly catalysts like platinum and iridium, making them expensive and limiting widespread adoption. AEMs represent a newer technology that combines the safety and cost-efficiency of alkaline membranes with the performance of PEMs. AEMs can operate with more affordable catalysts, such as nickel and iron, and are designed to prevent hydrogen crossover through finer pore structures. This makes AEMs safer and more adaptable to power fluctuations, especially from renewable sources like solar energy. Wu explains that many companies, including Hyproof, are working to improve AEMs to lower hydrogen production costs, making hydrogen a more viable and accessible energy source for various industries.
