Improved Durability and Cost-Effective Components for New Generation Direct Methanol Fuel Cells - DURAMET Project

Abstract:

Direct Methanol Fuel Cells (DMFCs) have been postulated as suitable systems for power generation in the fields of portable power sources, remote and micro-distributed energy generation, and auxiliary power units (APU). The main objective of the DURAMET project ((http://www.duramet.eu) is to develop cost-effective components for DMFCs with enhanced activity and stability in order to reduce stack costs and improve performance and durability. The project concerns with the development of DMFC components for application in auxiliary power units and portable systems.
