Problems solved by technology

However, this method consumes a lot of energy, and the hydrogen evolution overpotential of the cathode material is the main factor affecting energy consumption.
Although precious metals such as Pt and Pd have low hydrogen evolution overpotential, their reserves are limited and their prices are high, making them difficult to apply in large-scale industrial applications.
