Özet

Electrocatalytic water splitting is an advanced way to obtain energy to produce green, renewable hydrogen (H2). However, its widespread application is hampered by the scarcity of freshwater resources. With its abundant reserves, seawater desalination offers a potentially viable alternative for large-scale H2 production. However, the complexity of seawater poses additional challenges for electrocatalytic processes. This evaluation assesses the processes and difficulties of splitting seawater through electrocatalysis to produce H2 and emphasizes recent progress in enhancing the efficiency of electrocatalysts in seawater. It also offers suggestions for future research paths to advance this technology.
