Multi-functional MEA Gas Diffusion Electrolysis Cell

Product Description

The Multi-functional MEA Gas Diffusion Electrolysis Cell (Model 101018) is a modular research-grade electrochemical reactor designed to integrate three mainstream CO₂ reduction configurations into a single platform: gas diffusion electrolysis, gas–solid electrochemistry, and membrane electrode assembly (MEA) electrolysis.

The cell adopts a sandwich-structured architecture, enabling precise construction of gas–solid interfaces and supporting the use of solid electrolytes or ion-exchange membranes in place of conventional liquid electrolytes. This design effectively suppresses the introduction of extraneous anions/cations, making it especially suitable for the direct production of high-purity liquid products from CO₂ electroreduction.

A key advantage of this system is its high degree of configurability: by replacing selected functional modules (A/B/C components), users can rapidly switch between different electrolysis modes without changing the core cell body.
