Redox-Stable Electrodes for Ethane Dehydrogenation Based on Proton Ceramic Electrochemical Reactors.

ABSTRACT: Ethylene is one of the most widely used components in the chemical industry, but the main manufacturing route involves significant energy consumption and generates substantial CO₂ emissions. Proton ceramic electrochemical reactors (PCERs) offer great potential for process intensification and could play a key role in ethane dehydrogenation (EDH) by extracting H₂ produced during the reaction. This process not only improves the reaction yield but also enables the production of a pure separated H₂ stream. However, nonoxidative EDH reaction conditions lead to coke formation, which is further increased by H₂ extraction, resulting in a decrease in system performance. Therefore, to successfully integrate PCER technology into ethylene production, it is cr
