A solid oxide electrolyzer cell is a solid oxide fuel cell that runs in regenerative mode to achieve the electrolysis of water by using a solid oxide, or ceramic, electrolyte to produce hydrogen gas and oxygen.

What is an electrolyzer and how does it work?

An electrolyzer is a system that uses electricity to break water into hydrogen and oxygen in a process called electrolysis. Through electrolysis, the electrolyzer system creates hydrogen gas. ... The entire system also contains pumps, vents, storage tanks, a power supply, separator and other components.

What is the difference between electrolyzer and fuel cell?

The differences are: Fuel cell is an object but electrolysis is a technique. Fuel cell uses electricity generated in a chemical reaction,but in electrolysis we supply electricity for a chemical reaction to occur.
