Direct Dimethyl Ether Fuel Cell with Much Improved Performance
Due to several apparent advantages over methanol, dimethyl ether (DME) has been viewed as a promising alternative fuel for direct fuel cell technology. Similar to methanol, DME oxidation requires a surface oxidant, such as OH, for the removal of adsorbed CO. Consequently, the reaction occurs at much faster rates on binary PtRu catalysts than Pt alone. In this work, PtRu catalysts with a wide va...
متن کاملAnode Catalysts for the Direct Dimethyl Ether Fuel Cell
For the last decade, dimethyl ether (DME) has been considered a promising alternative fuel for direct fuel cells because of several advantages over methanol. In this work, PtRu catalysts with a wide range of Pt-to-Ru ratios were screened for the direct DME fuel cell (DDMEFC) performance for the first time. Overall, Pt50Ru50 performs best in the high and middle voltage ranges, whereas Pt80Ru20 p...
متن کاملHigh-activity PtRuPd/C catalyst for direct dimethyl ether fuel cells.
Dimethyl ether (DME) has been considered as a promising alternative fuel for direct-feed fuel cells but lack of an efficient DME oxidation electrocatalyst has remained the challenge for the commercialization of the direct DME fuel cell. The commonly studied binary PtRu catalyst shows much lower activity in DME than methanol oxidation. In this work, guided by density functional theory (DFT) calc...
متن کاملPoly (Ether Ether Ketone) Based Anion Exchange Membrane for Solid Alkaline Fuel Cell: A Review
Solid alkaline fuel cell is employed by polymer anion exchange membrane (AEM) that is permeable to hydroxide ion. A number of polymers have been proposed for AEM which include polysulfone (PSF), poly (phenylene oxide) (PPO), and poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK). The purpose of this paper was to conduct a critical review on the development of PEEK polymer as AEM, particu...
متن کامل2D Analytical Model for Direct Ethanol Fuel Cell Performance Prediction
Analytical models provide useful information for researchers to study fuel cell function. In this paper, it’s aimed to present a 2D analytical model for direct ethanol fuel cell (DEFC) performance. The model included equations inside diffusion layer, catalyst layer, and Ethanol cross-over through membrane, which all have been solved. Analytical model has been validated by some experimental tria...
