High throughput evaluation of perovskite-based anode catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells

چکیده
Liquid feed direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC) are promising candidates for portable power applications. However, owing to the problems associated with expensive Pt-based catalysts, viz., CO poisoning, a promising approach is to use complex oxides of the type ABO3 (A = Sr, Ce, La, etc. and B = Co, Fe, Ni, Pt, Ru, etc.).
