Can three-dimensional ordered porous materials improve electrochemical storage of energy?

Three-dimensional ordered porous materials can improve the electrochemical storage of energy. Jing Wang and Yuping Wu from Nanjing Tech University, China and co-workers review the development of these materials for use as electrodes in devices such as batteries and supercapacitors.

Why are electrode materials important for electrochemical energy storage devices?

For any electrochemical energy storage device, electrode materials as the major constituent are key factors in achieving high energy and power densities.

What is electrochemical energy storage?

Among various energy storage technologies, electrochemical energy storage devices are the most promising and common devices. Currently, research on electrochemical energy storage is mainly focused on supercapacitors and rechargeable batteries 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

Can electrochemical energy storage be extended to Petrochemical Synthesis and production?

However, the authors believe that with the growth of renewable energy and intermittent energy sources, the concept of electrochemical energy storage can be extended to the electrochemical synthesis and production of fuels, chemicals, petrochemicals, etc. The vision of the approach is shown in Fig. 38.1 .

Which electrochemical energy storage devices are considered galvanic cells?

Traditional electrochemical energy storage devices, such as batteries, flow batteries, and fuel cells, are considered galvanic cells. The approach depicted in Fig. 38.1, electrosynthesis reactor, is defined as an electrolytic or electrolysis cell.
