Project summary

  • investigate how electrically induced local pH environments develop in electrochemical systems;
  • develop theoretical and computational models to predict local pH conditions in complex water matrices and investigate the impact of water composition, electrode materials, and membrane materials on pH conditions;
  • design experiments to quantify local pH environments near electrodes and membranes and integrate experimental observations and modelling results to develop design principles for electrically driven processes;
  • use the obtained insights to guide the design of electrochemical cleaning and separation technologies in close collaboration with the industrial partners in the consortium;
  • present research results at consortium meetings, international conferences, and scientific workshops and publish findings in leading peer-reviewed scientific journals.
