Fig. 4: Propane oxidation in MEA electrolyzer.
From: One-step electrochemical conversion of propane to acetone of 96% purity
a Schematic illustration of the MEA electrolyzer for POR. b POR performance at various current densities. The partial pressure of propane and O2 were maintained at 1 bar each. c POR performance at 50 mA/cm2 with different propane pressure and cell temperature. The darkness of blue core represents the total production rate, and the brown circle indicates product ratio, with colors labeled in (b). The partial pressure of O2 was maintained at 1 bar under varying conditions. d Schematic illustration of the self-separation of gas and liquid products at cathode outlet. e Collecting efficiency, production rate and purity of gas products. The error bars represent ± 1 standard deviation calculated from triplicate independent experiments.
