Electrochemical Engineering

Más información sobre el libro

Electrochemical engineering diverges significantly from traditional chemical engineering due to the unique physics and physical chemistry involved in systems like electrolyzers, batteries, and fuel cells. Key distinctions include the critical roles of interfacial charge transfer, current density distributions, and mass transfer limitations in liquid electrolytes. This field has evolved with a focus on high-level mathematics to model various configurations accurately. However, it often overlooks the chemical aspects integral to electrochemical technology, highlighting a gap in interdisciplinary understanding.
