One of the unparalleled advantages of electrochemical systems is their compact and modular reactor design, which allows easy scale-up from a few watts in a laboratory scale to million watts for industrial applications. However, the reactor design itself is not straightforward because it profoundly influences multi-phase transport inside the reactor and determines the overall energy efficiency and stability of the system as a whole.

At present, our lab has a main focus on the one- and two-dimensional design of the reactor architecture especially for the carbon dioxide electrolysis processes.
