Improved electrodes for electrochemically driven carbon dioxide separator

Abstract

An electrode for use in an electrochemically driven carbon dioxide separator (EDCS) includes a porous and electrically conductive substrate having two opposing sides, in which only one of the sides is coated with an electro-catalytic coating, the other side being an uncoated side. The electro-catalytic coating includes a charge-storage compound that reacts to form hydroxide when acting as a cathode and reacts to consume hydroxide or produce protons when acting as an anode.
