  • Manufacturing carbon-based combustibles by electrochemical decomposition of CO
    Patent number: 8999134
    Abstract: Provided is a method for the electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide to fuels. The method employs reducing CO2 in an electrochemical cell using an aerogel carbon electrode and an ionic liquid membrane, thereby providing a carbon-based combustible.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 31, 2011
    Date of Patent: April 7, 2015
    Assignee: Ben-Gurion University of the Negev Research & Development Authority, Ltd.
    Inventors: Armand Bettelheim, Eli Korin
  • Polymer electrolyte fuel cells membrane and a method of creating thereof
    Patent number: 8492050
    Abstract: A polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) for fuel cells is provided, as well as a method for manufacturing the PEM by direct casting on the fuel cells electrodes. The PEM, consisting of an ionic liquid entrapped within polysiloxane-RTV matrix, is stable at high temperatures, in acidic and basic environments, and exhibits a high conductivity, without the crossover of methanol.
