MUMBAI, India, Sept. 12 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517079095 A) filed by Robert Bosch Gmbh, Stuttgart, Germany, on Aug. 20, for 'method for regenerating an electrolysis cell having a membrane-electrode assembly.'

Inventor(s) include Wessner, Jochen; Wagner, Thomas; Wang, Li; Schuler, Tobias; Visschers, Fabian; Hug, Frederik; Goorts, Walter; Bauer, Harald; and Utz, Annika.

The application for the patent was published on Sept. 12, under issue no. 37/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a method for regenerating an electrolysis cell having a membrane-electrode assembly (10). The membrane-electrode assembly (10) comprises: - an anode side (20) having an anode-side transport layer (21) and an anode-side frame structure (22) configured at least partially in frame form around the anode-side transport layer (21), - a cathode side (30) having a cathode-side transport layer (31) and a cathode-side frame structure (32) configured at least partially in frame form around the cathode-side transport layer (31), - an anode-side gap (23) between the anode-side transport layer (21) and the anode-side frame structure (22), - a cathode-side gap (33) between the cathode-side transport layer (31) and the cathode-side frame structure (32), - a membrane structure (40) positioned in layer-like manner between the anode side (20) and the cathode side (30), comprising a membrane (41) having an anode-side catalyst membrane coating (42) and a cathode-side catalyst membrane coating (43). During a regeneration time (T), the anode side (20) is operated with a higher pressure than during standard operation."

The patent application was internationally filed on Feb. 07, 2024, under International application No.PCT/EP2024/052996.
