Avoiding bubble troubles: Investigating the relationship between bubbles and electrochemistry

Bubbles are known to influence energy and mass transfer in gas-evolving electrodes. Many electrochemical reactions produce gas that can lead to bubbles forming at the reaction site. Those bubbles can reduce the efficiency of reaction which leads to energy losses. David Fernandez Rivas, and his collaborators of the University of Twente and New York University, published different strategies to mitigate losses or even exploit bubbles in the journal Joule.
