Abstract

Electrolyte-free electrolysis fuel cells are central to a sustainable futurewith clean water. With growing industrial development, for example, toxic heavymetals, radioactive ions, and inorganic compounds are increasingly discharged intothe environment and our sources of drinking water. In novel cutting-edge developedelectrolysis fuel cells [1] the case of electrolyte-free electrolysis has been observed formixtures of water and acetonitrile. These high modular flow cells of electro organicsynthesis are very promising for the production of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticallyactive agents. The purpose of this study is to qualitatively and quantitatively evaluatethe effect of electric fields on electrolysis cells. Especially in the case of acetonitrileand water mixtures, we have focused on understanding by atomistic simulations theexistence of the electrical conductance and how this can be described on larger scales.
