Solid oxide electrolyzer

A solid oxide electrolyzer is a device that splits water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity. It operates at high temperatures, around 700-1000°C, which makes the process more efficient. The core component is a solid ceramic material that conducts oxygen ions. When electricity is applied, water molecules split, with oxygen moving through the ceramic to the other side, producing pure hydrogen. This technology is useful for creating clean hydrogen fuel, especially when powered by renewable energy, helping reduce carbon emissions and support sustainable energy systems.
