Abstract
(EN) The present invention describes ways of increasing the production efficiency of a salinewater electrolysis cell and of consuming CO2 gas and sequestering it from the atmosphere. This is achieved by the introduction of CO2 gas into the catholyte of the electrolysis, where reaction of the CO2 with the hydroxide ions present in the catholyte reduces the pH of the catholyte, thereby increasing production efficiency of the electrolysis cell. The preceding reaction forms bicarbonate and/or carbonate, thus sequestering the reactant CO2 gas from the atmosphere. The CO2 gas may be introduced either directly into the cathode area of the electrolysis cell, or into the electrolyte prior to its introduction into the electrolysis cell. Corresponding apparatus is also provided.
(FR) La présente invention concerne des moyens d'augmentation du rendement de production d'une cellule d'électrolyse d'eau saline et de la consommation de gaz CO2 et de sa séquestration à partir de l'atmosphère. Ceci est obtenu au moyen de l'introduction de gaz CO2 dans le catholyte de l'électrolyse, la réaction du CO2 avec les ions hydroxyde présents dans le catholyte réduisant le pH du catholyte, augmentant ainsi le rendement de production de la cellule d'électrolyse. La réaction précédente forme du bicarbonate et/ou du carbonate, ce qui permet de séquestrer le gaz CO2 réactif à partir de l'atmosphère. Le gaz CO2 peut être introduit soit directement dans la zone du cathode de la cellule d'électrolyse, soit dans l'électrolyte avant son introduction dans la cellule d'électrolyse. L'invention concerne également un appareil correspondant.
