Seawater is the most abundant aqueous resource on earth that is readily accessible at very low costs, but yet to be directly utilised for production of hydrogen fuel and commodity chemicals. This project aims to develop cheap and plentiful carbon-based high performance chlorine evolution electrocatalysts for seawater electrolysis powered by renewable electricity to realise the production of hydrogen, chlorine and sodium hydroxide directly from seawater. The electrolyser can also be used to treat desalination brine while produce hydrogen and chemicals. The success of the project will set a firm technological foundation for seawater utilisation, which will add to Australian capability to meet future energy and environment challenges.

海水是地球上最丰富的水资源，可以很容易地以极低的成本获得，但尚未直接用于生产氢燃料和商品化学品。该项目旨在开发廉价和丰富的碳基高性能氯析电催化剂，用于海水电解，以可再生电力为动力，实现直接从海水中生产氢、氯和氢氧化钠。电解槽还可用于处理海水淡化盐水，同时产生氢气和化学品。该项目的成功将为海水利用奠定坚实的技术基础，这将增加澳大利亚应对未来能源和环境挑战的能力。
