Novel components in anion exchange membrane water electrolyzers (AEMWE’s): Status, challenges and future needs. A mini review

AEMWE is a novel technology combining the advantages of the already recognized electrolyzer technologies, i.e. Proton Exchange Membrane WE (PEMWE) and Alkaline WE (AWE) with the promise to eliminate the disadvantages of both. This review presents an overall opinion of the current state of AEMWE tech...
