Transport of water through ion-exchange membranes is of importance both for electrodialysis (ED) and reverse electrodialysis (RED). In this work, we extend our previous theory [J. Membrane Sci., 510, (2016) 370-381] and include water…

Protonic ceramic fuel cells can be operated at low temperatures, but their performances relying on bulk ion transfer in solid electrolytes are usually limited by much lower proton conductivity than 0.1 S/cm below 600 {\deg}C. Herein,…
