New insights in microwave-driven redox transformations (Materials Horizons, 2023)

We are pleased to present the scientific work “Modulating redox properties of solid-state ion-conducting materials using microwave irradiation“, published in October 2023 in Materials Horizons, a Royal Society of Chemistry publication.  

The research addresses the industrial demand for efficient, low-carbon technologies by exploring additional significant findings from our laboratory regarding the recently discovered use of microwaves as an effective reducing agent for solid-state ion-conducting materials (SSIMs), holding promise for various applications, including gas depuration, energy storage, and hydrogen generation.   

The study examines the dynamics and physicochemical dependencies of microwave-induced redox transformations in materials such as gadolinium-doped ceria (CGO) and yttria-stabilized zirconia (8YSZ). Microwave processing promotes oxygen-vacancy formation and oxygen-surface exchange at significantly lower temperatures than traditional techniques.

A revolution in energy research, from microwaves to hydrogen

The technology developed by researchers from the ITACA and ITQ institutes makes it possible to transform electric energy into hydrogen or chemical products, solely using microwaves.

A team of researchers from the Polytechnic University of Valencia and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) has discovered a new method that makes it possible to transform electricity into hydrogen or chemical products solely using microwaves – without cables and without any type of contact with electrodes.

This represents a revolution in the field of energy research and a key development for the process of industrial decarbonisation, as well as for the future of the automotive sector and the chemical industry, among many others. The study has been published in the latest edition of Nature Energy, where the discovery is explained.
