    3D printed honeycomb transition metal decorated electrodes for hydrogen production
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Mert, Mehmet Erman; Nazligul, Huseyin; Aydin, Emine Avsar; Mert, Basak Dogru
    In this study, a PV-wind hybrid system was proposed as a power source for hydrogen production by alkaline electrolysis and it was examined MATLAB simulation for Adana region. In the alkaline electrolysis cell, lab-made 3D printed cathode substrates were used and its electrocatalytic activity was enhanced via electrodeposition of Ni, Cu and NiCu. The characterization was achieved via scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray, transmission electron microscopy, contact angle measurement and X-Ray diffraction analysis. The electrochemical performance was determined via linear sweep voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, Tafel polarization measurements, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, chronoamperometry. Results showed that 3DNiCu electrode exhibited nodular shaped homogeneous surface characteristics and NiCu (111) and (200) crystalline morphology; it also demonstrated lower polarization resistance and higher current density during alkaline electrolysis procedure.

    Design and performance analysis of a PV-assisted alkaline electrolysis for hydrogen production: An experimental and theoretical study
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Mert, Mehmet Erman; Edis, Cansu; Akyildiz, Senay; Demir, Beyza Nur; Nazligul, Huseyin; Gurdal, Yeliz; Mert, Basak Dogru
    The PV assisted alkaline electrolysis cell was established for hydrogen generation. Lab-made AgNiCu modified nickel foam cathodes were used in this system. The characterization was achieved using field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray and X-Ray diffraction analysis. The electrochemical performance was investigated via linear sweep voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, Tafel polarization measurements and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The electrolysis potential and time depended efficiency was monitored. The structural theoretical analysis of the electrode surface and hydrogen evolution characteristics were also determined applying Density Functional Theory and Ab-initio Molecular Dynamics simulations which identified the role of Ag decoration and Cu incorporation on the surface against water and proton adsorptions. The modified cathode (AgNiCuF) improved the hydrogen production performance owing to lower hydrogen onset potential (-1.1 V) and charge transfer resistance (0.362 ohm at -1.5 V).

    Experimental and theoretical study: Design and implementation of a floating photovoltaic system for hydrogen production
    (Wiley, 2022) Gullu, Emre; Mert, Basak Dogru; Nazligul, Huseyin; Demirdelen, Tugce; Gurdal, Yeliz
    In this study, lab-made modified graphite cathodes were used to design and implement floating PV assisted alkaline electrolysis cell. The influence of temperature on PV performance was studied both experimentally and theoretically, and the PV module performance was investigated in floating as well as non-floating modes. Power generation of floating PV panel and non-floating PV panel at four different air temperatures was examined. Although there was no substantial improvement in power generation at 6 degrees C or 16 degrees C, values improved by 6.25% and 10.75% at 24 degrees C and 37 degrees C, respectively. For alkaline electrolysis cell part of this system, the graphite (G) cathode was galvanostatically coated with nickel (G/Ni) and decorated with cobalt nano-particles (G/Ni/Co). The characterization of the electrode was achieved using X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The Co(111)-decorated Ni was determined by XRD, the electrode surface was very rough in FE-SEM micrographs, the detected features provided a larger contact area that supported the formation of simultaneous electrochemical reactions. The electrochemical behavior of electrodes were determined in 1 M KOH by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The modified cathode (G/Ni/Co) enhanced the hydrogen production performance owing to lower hydrogen onset potential. Electronic structure calculations were carried out in order to investigate water as well as proton adsorption on a Co-decorated Ni(111) surface. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations identified the role of Co cluster and Ni surface on water and proton adsorptions. According to our knowledge of the literature to date, the practical and theoretical analysis of a floating PV assisted-an alkaline electrolysis system that worked with the laboratory-made electrodes has not been performed before. Results showed that floating PV panels were beneficial than land mounted panels and the G/Ni/Co enhanced the hydrogen generation performance of the system.
