  1. 1. Electrochemical Reactions in Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells

    Author : Maria Wesselmark; Svein Sunde; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fuel cell; model electrodes; oxygen reduction; methanol oxidation; formic acid oxidation; hydrogen oxidation; CO oxidation; degradation; tungsten oxide; carbon support; Bränslecell; modellelektroder; syrgasreduktion; metanoloxidation; myrsyraoxidation; vätgasoxidation; CO oxidation; degradering; wolfram oxid; kolsupport; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : The polymer electrolyte fuel cell converts the chemical energy in a fuel, e.g. hydrogen or methanol, and oxygen into electrical energy. The high efficiency and the possibility to use fuel from renewable sources make them attractive as energy converters in future sustainable energy systems. READ MORE
