Abstract (en)

[origin: US2018363150A1] Mixed ionically and electronically conductive membranes may be employed in electrochemical systems that are capable of producing water from air or molecular oxygen with high energy efficiency. The systems may comprise at least one electrochemical cell comprising: a first electrode and a second electrode, optionally in electrical communication via an external circuit; a mixed ionically and electronically conductive membrane interposed between and in contact with the first electrode and the second electrode; a hydrogen-containing gas supply in fluid communication with one of the first electrode and the second electrode; a molecular oxygen-containing gas supply in fluid communication with the other of the first electrode and the second electrode; and a first gas outlet extending from the first electrode and a second gas outlet extending from the second electrode.
