The Performance of Electron-Mediator Modified Activated Carbon as Anode for Direct Glucose Alkaline Fuel Cell
Six different electron mediators were immobilized on the activated carbon (AC) anode and their effects on performance of a direct glucose alkaline fuel cell were explored. 2-hydroxy-1, 4-naphthoquinone (NQ), methyl viologen (MV), neutral red (NR), methylene blue (MB), 1, 5-dichloroanthraquinone (DA) and anthraquinone (AQ) were doped in activated carbon (AC), respectively, and pressed on nickel ...
متن کاملHigh-performance alkaline direct methanol fuel cell using a nitrogen-postdoped anode.
A commercial PtRu/C catalyst postdoped with nitrogen demonstrates a significantly higher performance (~10-20% improvement) in the anode of an alkaline direct methanol fuel cell than an unmodified commercial PtRu/C catalyst control. The enhanced performance shown herein is attributed at least partially to the increased electrochemical surface area of the PtRu/C after postdoping with nitrogen.
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 کاملNickel-cobalt bimetallic anode catalysts for direct urea fuel cell
Nickel is an ideal non-noble metal anode catalyst for direct urea fuel cell (DUFC) due to its high activity. However, there exists a large overpotential toward urea electrooxidation. Herein, NiCo/C bimetallic nanoparticles were prepared with various Co contents (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 wt%) to improve the activity. The best Co ratio was 10% in the aspect of cell performance, with a maximum power d...
متن کاملCarbon Corrosion in PEM Fuel Cell Dead-Ended Anode Operations
This paper investigates the effects of dead-ended anode (DEA) operation on the electrode carbon corrosion of the Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell. A reduced order isothermal model is developed focusing on the species concentration along the channel and associated membrane phase potential. This model explains, and can be used to quantify, the carbon corrosion behavior during DEA operatio...
