Evening lecture by Dr. Michel Saakes, organized by the Rotterdamsche Chemische Kring.

Hydrogen from Seawater

Summary
GCK-Water Electrolysis: Direct seawater electrolysis results in chlorine formation at the positive terminal and precipitate formation at the negative terminal. Seawater can be used as a water source for hydrogen production without desalination through a modified electrolysis process. Several routes for using seawater as a water source for hydrogen production are possible without desalination. Several new processes for producing hydrogen from seawater are demonstrated.
