Facing seawater splitting challenges by regeneration with Ni-Mo-Fe OER/HER bifunctional electrocatalyst.

Hydrogen, produced by water splitting, has been proposed as one of the main green energy vectors of the future if produced from renewable energy sources. However, to substitute fossil fuels, large amounts of pure water are necessary, scarce in many world regions. In this work, we fabricate efficient and earth-abundant electrodes, study the challenges of using real seawater and propose an electrode regeneration method to face undesired salts deposition. Ni-Mo-Fe trimetallic electrocatalyst is deposited on non-expensive graphitic carbon felts both for HER and OER in seawater and alkaline seawater. Cl - pitting and the chlorine oxidation reaction are suppressed on these substrates and alkalinized electrolyte. Precipitations on the electrodes, mainly CaCO 3 , originated from seawater dissolved components have been studied and a simple regeneration technique is proposed to rapidly dissolve undesired deposited CaCO 3 in acidified seawater. Under alkaline conditions, Ni-Mo-Fe based catalyst is found to reconfigure, under cathodic bias, into Ni-Mo-Fe alloy with a cubic crystalline structure and Ni:Fe(OH) 2 redeposits whereas, under anodic bias, it is transformed into a follicular Ni:FeOOH structure. High productivities over 300 mA·cm -2 and voltages down to 1.59 V @10 mA·cm -2 for the overall water splitting reaction have been shown, and electrodes are found stable for over 24 h without decay in alkaline seawater conditions and with energy efficiency higher than 61.5% which makes seawater splitting promising and economically feasible.
