(Invited) Applications of Protonic Ceramics for Electrochemical Energy Conversion and Storage

Abstract

Recent exciting advancements in proton-conducting ceramic materials and devices suggest that they are approaching a technology readiness level that rivals more well-established polymeric and oxygen-ion conducting counterparts. Because they can enable proton-mediated electrochemistry under both dry and wet environments at moderate temperatures, protonic ceramics provide unique opportunities to enhance or synergize a diverse range of complementary electrochemical and thermochemical processes. Because of this potential, significant efforts have been devoted to advancing numerous energy-related applications using these materials. Here, we will provide an overview of recent research efforts at the Colorado School of Mines focused on developing protonic ceramics for a number of applications, including: Hydrocarbon-tolerant protonic ceramic fuel cells for electricity generation (PCFCs)
