AEM test bench in the H2 Application Lab

A 24 kW anion exchange membrane electrolyser (AEM) serves as a test platform for the further development of AEM technology in the H2 Application Lab at Münster University of Applied Sciences. The modular design with ten coupled stacks, each with an output of 2.4 kW, enables investigations into efficiency, durability and performance optimisation. The aim is to transfer this to larger systems. The system forms the basis for larger electrolysis plants and contributes to the development of new applications in the hydrogen economy.

In the H2 Application Lab at Münster University of Applied Sciences, the AEM electrolyser is being tested in conjunction with various storage and compression technologies in order to optimise the medium and long-term storage of hydrogen. The main areas of research are integration into existing energy systems, increasing efficiency through improved operating modes and combining with fuel cells to convert hydrogen back into electricity.
