A direct borohydride fuel cell with a polymer fiber membrane and non-noble metal catalysts
Polymer electrolyte membranes (PEM) and Pt-based catalysts are two crucial components which determine the properties and price of fuel cells. Even though, PEM faces problem of fuel crossover in liquid fuel cells such as direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) and direct borohydride fuel cell (DBFC), which lowers power output greatly. Here, we report a DBFC in which a polymer fiber membrane (PFM) was u...
متن کاملTransient investigation of passive alkaline membrane direct methanol fuel cell
Passive direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) is considered as an attractive power source for portable devices. In this study, a transient multiphase model for passive alkaline anion exchange membrane DMFC (AAEMDMFC) is developed. The results show that the power density decreases during the operation and is more difficult to maintain stable with higher current density or lower voltage. The fuel effi...
متن کاملIV.J.4 Advanced Catalysts for Direct Methanol Fuel Cells
Approach • Develop a methodology that provides high-throughput fabrication and analyses of novel alloy materials of arbitrary composition. • Evaluate multi-component alloys consisting of platinum, ruthenium, nickel and zirconium that are corrosion-resistant in acid for catalytic activity. • Analyze results of polarization studies to develop a rationale for catalyst performance. • Evaluate promi...
متن کاملSupport Effects on Palladium Catalysts for Methanol Fuel Applications
Methanol, formaldehyde, carbon monoxide, and propylene conversion were examined in a laboratory flow reactor over three base-metal containing alumina-supported palladium (Pd) catalysts in addition to Pd on y-alumina catalyst. The base metals were cerium, barium, and a combination of the two. Experiments were performed to determine the effect of air to fuel ratio on lightoff temperatures of vari...
متن کاملSelectivity of Direct Methanol Fuel Cell Membranes
Sulfonic acid-functionalized polymer electrolyte membranes alternative to Nafion(®) were developed. These were hydrocarbon systems, such as blend sulfonated polyetheretherketone (s-PEEK), new generation perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) systems, and composite zirconium phosphate-PFSA polymers. The membranes varied in terms of composition, equivalent weight, thickness, and filler and were investigat...
