Product Overview
The CO₂ Electrolysis Reactor is a compact electrochemical device designed for efficient carbon conversion applications. It features a zero-gap configuration, thin-layer structure, and a lightweight plastic frame design, resulting in a compact size, reduced weight, and strong pressure resistance with long-term operational stability.
With an optimized flow field design, the reactor ensures uniform mass transfer under multi-channel and multiphase flow conditions, significantly improving CO₂ utilization at the electrode interface. It is suitable for a wide range of CO₂ utilization applications and plays an important role in advancing low-carbon technologies and green production.
Working Principle
The reactor operates based on electrochemical reduction of CO₂. Under an applied electric field, CO₂ is reduced at the cathode to produce carbon-based products such as carbon monoxide, methanol, or other chemicals, while oxidation reactions occur at the anode to maintain charge balance.
The zero-gap design minimizes the distance between electrodes, reducing ohmic resistance and improving energy efficiency. The thin-layer structure enhances mass transfer, allowing reactants to quickly reach the electrode surface and products to be removed efficiently.
The multi-channel, multiphase flow field ensures uniform distribution of gas and electrolyte across the electrode surface, improving reaction rates and conversion efficiency while reducing concentration polarization.
