Analyzing the Electrochemical Behaviour of Hydrogen Gas Produced in Single Compartment Electrolyzer

The relation between power consumption and productivity of the electrochemical reaction was investigated at different environments (Sea water, Sea water mixed with tap water and 0.1N NaCl solution) at ambient and turbulent flow conditions. The results showed an obvious relation between the nature of the environment and the parameters of the voltage balance equation of the electrolyzer. Multiple regression analysis was used to generate a model to show the effect of time and potential on current consumption: Log I measured in μA=−0.91185−0.000173tmin−0.00496VmV This model was selected according to the highest R2 and R2 adj which revealed that the model is significant according to ANOVA statistical analysis based on F and P-tests. On the other hand 3D mapping was generated using MATLAB to show the response of the model.
