Abstract

A new alloy material nickel-tungsten-phosphorus (Ni-W-P) was obtained by electrodeposition. The effects of experimental conditions, such as heat treatment, nickel sulfate concentration, Sodium Tungstate concentration, Sodium hypophosphite concentration, on the catalytic activity of Ni-W-P alloys for hydrogen evolution reaction were systematically studied. The morphology and chemical components of the catalyst were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF). The results show that Ni-W-P is an excellent cathodic material for the hydrogen production by microbial electrolysis cell. At an applied voltage of 0.9V, MEC with Ni-W-P cathode obtained a maximum hydrogen production rate of 1.09 m ³/(m ³·d) with current density of 131 A/m ³ and COD removal of 91.2%.
