Ethanol/water mixture permeation behavior through membrane electrode assembly (MEA) in PEMFC
(2005)
Direct ethanol fuel cells (DEFCs) have been paid more and more attention in recent years due to the following advantages of ethanol: low toxicity, renewability and easy production by the fermentation of agricultural products ...
Direct ethanol solid oxide fuel cells: The case of PT anodes
(2005)
The limitation of fossil fuels deposits and the detrimental effects of their combustion emissions on the environment make it necessary to develop alternative technologies, such as fuel cells and use the renewable and ...
The effect of methanol and ethanol cross-over on the performance of PtRu/C-based anode DAFCs
(2005)
In the present work, the cross-over rates of methanol and ethanol, respectively, through Nafion®-115 membranes at different temperatures and different concentrations have been measured and compared. The changes of Nafion®-115 ...
An exergetic analysis of an ethanol FED SOFC-GT hybrid system
(2009)
A parametric analysis optimization and comparison of the exergetic efficiency (2nd law) of two different Solid Oxide Fuel Cell based power plants (SOFC-GT and SOFC) is carried out in the present work. The fuel with which ...
Exergy analysis of a solid oxide fuel cell power plant fed by either ethanol or methane
(2004)
The method of exergy analysis is presented for a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) power plant involving external steam reforming and fed by methane and ethanol. The parameters for optimal operation of the integrated SOFC plant ...
Recent progress in direct ethanol proton exchange membrane fuel cells (DE-PEMFCs)
(2006)
Direct ethanol fuel cells (DEFCs) belong to the family of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), in which ethanol is directly used as the fuel. In the present work, the main aspects related to DEFCs such as ...
Effect of pore morphology of mesoporous carbons on the electrocatalytic activity of Pt nanoparticles for fuel cell reactions
(2010)
In the present investigation, the role of the pore morphology of mesoporous carbons in the electrocatalytic activity of Pt nanoparticles for fuel cell reactions has been successfully revealed by adopting ordered mesoporous ...
Thermodynamic and economic analysis of a steam reformer-solid oxide fuel cell system fed by natural gas and ethanol
(2002)
In the present work, ethanol and methane are compared as candidate fuels for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The thermodynamic analysis of both alternatives was undertaken considering that a SOFC stack operates by being ...
Exergy analysis of an ethanol fuelled proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell system for automobile applications
(2005)
An integrated ethanol fuelled proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) power system was investigated following a second law exergy analysis. The system was assumed to have the typical design for automobile applications ...
Pt based anode catalysts for direct ethanol fuel cells
(2003)
In the present work several Pt-based anode catalysts supported on carbon XC-72R were prepared with a novel method and characterized by means of XRD, TEM and XPS analysis. It was found that all these catalysts are consisted ...
