Hydrogen Production by Electrolysis – Layan

This project focuses on synthesizing BaCe1 Y O3 δ (x = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15) via solid-state reaction using BaCO3, CeO2, and Y2O3. The powders will be calcined at 1000 °C, characterized by XRD, SEM, and TGA, then pressed into dense pellets (sintered at 1200 °C). Proton conductivity will be measured between 300–600 °C under dry and wet air conditions.
