Abstract
Dissolved iron in alkaline media is an important topic influencing a wide array of electrochemical reactions and most notably those occurring in alkaline water electrolysers. This work compiles the study techniques and strategies that have been used in the past few years to help tackle this challenging issue. Focus is made on iron solubility in the studied medias, the importance of using a quality reference electrolyte, where and how to measure iron content in the system, and also on what is agreed and what is debated concerning the influence of dissolved iron on the hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction, notably in the way these electrolyte impurities do enhance or alter the reactions kinetics.
期刊介绍:
The development of the Current Opinion journals stemmed from the acknowledgment of the growing challenge for specialists to stay abreast of the expanding volume of information within their field. In Current Opinion in Electrochemistry, they help the reader by providing in a systematic manner:
1.The views of experts on current advances in electrochemistry in a clear and readable form.
2.Evaluations of the most interesting papers, annotated by experts, from the great wealth of original publications.
In the realm of electrochemistry, the subject is divided into 12 themed sections, with each section undergoing an annual review cycle:
• Bioelectrochemistry • Electrocatalysis • Electrochemical Materials and Engineering • Energy Storage: Batteries and Supercapacitors • Energy Transformation • Environmental Electrochemistry • Fundamental & Theoretical Electrochemistry • Innovative Methods in Electrochemistry • Organic & Molecular Electrochemistry • Physical & Nano-Electrochemistry • Sensors & Bio-sensors •
