In 2023 we highlighted how the Laboratory of Electrochemical Engineering at the University of the Philippines had installed a Hiden HPR-40 DEMS system. A video recently released by the university offers an in-depth look at the department and the cutting-edge research underway, particularly in the field of electrochemical energy conversion and storage systems.
The Laboratory of Electrochemical Engineering is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technology in fuel cells, electrolyzers, and batteries—key components in the shift towards renewable energy. The installation of the HPR-40 DEMS by Hiden Analytical represents a significant boost to the lab’s capabilities, providing precise and real-time gas analysis during electrochemical reactions. This sophisticated tool allows researchers to monitor and analyze the efficiency and effectiveness of different electrocatalysts under actual operational conditions.
The core focus of LEE is the development of innovative electrocatalysts that can improve the performance of energy conversion devices. Electrocatalysts play a critical role by facilitating the chemical reactions at electrodes without being consumed in the process. By understanding the behavior of these catalysts during electrochemical reactions, researchers can engineer solutions that are not only more efficient but also more durable and cost-effective.
The HPR-40 DEMS system enables the team at LEE to study these reactions, leading to potential breakthroughs in the development of advanced materials for clean energy technologies. This research is crucial for creating more sustainable energy systems that can reduce global dependence on fossil fuels and mitigate the effects of climate change.
With the integration of the Hiden HPR-40 DEMS system, the lab enhances its research capabilities, further contributing to global efforts in sustainable energy development. This progress not only underscores the university’s commitment to academic excellence and research but also highlights its role in addressing some of the most pressing energy challenges facing the world today.
