dc.description.abstractThe depletion of fossil fuels and the environmental impact of their combustion have increased the demand for sustainable energy alternatives, with hydrogen appearing as an appropriate option due to its clean energy potential. This study focuses on developing a laboratory-scale alkaline electrolysis system for hydrogen production. Platinum, known for its high catalytic activity and durability, was employed as the anode, while graphite was selected as the cathode for its cost-effectiveness. To enhance catalytic performance, the graphite electrodes were modified with nickel-cobalt-molybdenum (NiCoMo) using a galvanostatic method. The electrode voltage and molarity were chosen as independent variables to evaluate their effect on hydrogen production. Using the Design-Expert software, the optimal conditions were identified at 3 V and 1.5 mol/l, yielding 10.67 ml of hydrogen. The coefficient of determination (R2) values 98.81% for R2, 97.96% for adjusted R2, and 91.63% for predicted R2 indicate suitable model accuracy. The error margin between experimental and optimized results was only 1.7%, confirming the reliability of the method. This study highlights the potential of NiCoMo-modified electrodes to enhance hydrogen production efficiency. Future research could explore scaling up the system and integrating it with renewable energy sources, positioning this method as a viable pathway toward sustainable hydrogen production.
