Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="aenm201401791-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>A single‐pot electrolytic synthesis of hydrogen and carbon fuels</bold> is achieved through the use of a mixed, hydroxide/carbonate electrolyte, nickel anode (generating O₂), and nickel or steel cathode (generating graphite and hydrogen). Low hydroxide fractions in the electrolyte ensure efficient carbon formation, while high fractions form only H₂ at the cathode; added barium and lithium salts ensure effective nickel anode stability. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgjhgnzrnz" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
