Electrochemical processes have been successfully commercialized at scale for select products, including chlorine and aluminum, with total primary energy consumptions of 55 TWh/year and 31.5 TWh/year, respectively, based on 2010 US production estimates. In addition, smaller-scale processes such as adiponitrile production, electrowinning, perchlorate production, ozone production, HCl recycling, and water electrolysis have also found commercial success. Yet, these electrochemical processes are a small fraction of the total energy consumption footprint of the chemical industry. Thus, there remains tremendous potential for electrochemical processes to replace energy-and carbon-intensive thermochemical processes, thus enabling broader electrification of the chemical industry.
