Electrochemical Cell Support Structure

US Patent:
2005025, Nov 10, 2005
Filed:
Aug 8, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/604670
Inventors:
John Zagaja - East Granby CT, US
Dave Christensen - Harwinton CT, US
Durwood Beringer - Windsor CT, US
Tushar Ghuwalewala - Wethersfield CT, US
Chris Capuano - Windsor Locks CT, US
Tony Hurtado - Guilford CT, US
Assignee:
PROTON ENERGY SYSTEMS, INC. - Wallingford CT
International Classification:
H01M004/86, H01M008/10, C25B011/03, C25B001/10
US Classification:
429045000, 429013000, 204284000, 204266000, 429030000
Abstract:
An electrochemical cell can comprise: a first electrode and a second electrode with a membrane disposed therebetween and in ionic communication with the first electrode and the second electrode and a sintered porous support member disposed on a side of the membrane opposite the second electrode, wherein the support member comprises a first portion on first side of the support member proximate the membrane and a second portion disposed on a side of the first portion opposite the membrane, wherein the second portion has a second portion porosity different from a first portion porosity.

Anode/Cathode Feed High Pressure Electrolysis System

US Patent:
2003023, Dec 18, 2003
Filed:
May 12, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/249837
Inventors:
Everett Anderson - Glastonbury CT, US
Mark Dristy - Kempton PA, US
Tushar Ghuwalewala - Wethersfield CT, US
Lawrence Moulthrop - Windsor CT, US
Michael Spaner - Deep River CT, US
Elena Stockton - Wallingford CT, US
Eric Styche - Enfield CT, US
Allan Tomasco - Southington CT, US
John Zagaja - East Granby CT, US
International Classification:
C02F001/461
US Classification:
205/743000, 205/746000, 204/263000, 204/228200
Abstract:
One embodiment of a method of operating an electrochemical cell system comprises: flowing supply water to an anode electrode of an electrolysis cell, applying a first current density to the electrolysis cell, electrolyzing the supply water at the anode electrode wherein hydrogen ions and a first portion water migrate to a cathode electrode of the electrolysis cell, collecting the first portion of water in a chamber in fluid communication with the cathode electrode, monitoring a first portion water level in the chamber, when the first portion water level attains a first selected level, decreasing the supply water flow to the anode electrode a sufficient amount to draw the first portion water from the chamber to the anode electrode, and electrolyzing the first portion water.
