Although this idea of direct conversion of chemical energy to electrical energy was first demonstrated by Sir William Grove in 1839 using a fuel cell, it was only in the middle of the twentieth century when Bacon‘s pioneering work led to the use of fuel cell in space missions. The interest in commercialization of fuel cell for civilian use has caught up with government organizations and private corporations for the past decade on account of fluctuating oil prices and environmental concerns. It is well known that the conventional fossil fuel, which is a primary source of gasoline, is not going to last more than a hundred years in the face of ever-increasing demand in the developed and developing countries. Although the reserves of natural gas, coal and tar sands may last another two to three hundred years with the current rate of production, their conversion is not efficient and pollution-free. Thus, scientists all over the world have taken up fuel cell development work in their quest of so | 出版日期 | Book 2007 | 关键词 | Alcohol; Batterie; Festoxidbrennstoffzelle; fuel cell; polymer; polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell; sy | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-68815-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4419-2256-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-387-68815-2 | copyright | Springer-Verlag New York 2007 |
