New type of catalyst: pollution-free fuel cells more durable

“If after Shoujimodian in the wild, we just need to phone back a shell of hair the size of the battery tube to add methanol, the cell phone just as full of power can continue to use the normal.” Portray this wonderful picture of the Guangzhou University Hydrogen fuel cell technology and a new type of catalyst project leader Professor Lin Weiming. School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering College recently developed the hydrogen fuel cell technology and a new type of catalyst, not only can reduce the toxic components in the fuel cell’s contents, but also be able to raise the utilization rate of fuel and extend the useful life of fuel cells, in computers, cell phones , In areas such as automotive application.
     As we all know, fuel cells mainly by the hydrogen fuel and oxygen, the largest of its characteristics is “clean”, known as the 21st century is the most attractive one of the ways to generate electricity.
      Catalyst for the performance of fuel cells plays a key role in the past, fuel cells need to methane add methanol fuel for reactions, which are indispensable. However, Professor Lin Weiming of the research team tested successfully used alone as a methanol fuel, by adding a catalyst will be able to generate power, “the fuel cell power conversion rate has reached 70% - 80%.”
      By adding a catalyst to reduce fuel-cell response generated by carbon monoxide, to extend the battery life is also one of their research. Fuel-cell response in the fuel will produce about 1% of carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide and fuel cells will “poisoning”, to shorten battery life. Lin Weiming said they found numerous tests, the use of a new catalyst, carbon monoxide can increase the absorption rate to 99%, thus reducing battery “poisoning” the possibility of extending the service life.Inspiron 1200Inspiron 1300Inspiron 1420Inspiron 1520Inspiron 1521Inspiron 1525Inspiron 1526Inspiron 1720Inspiron 1721Inspiron 2200Inspiron 2500Inspiron 3000Inspiron 300MInspiron 3200Inspiron 3500Inspiron 3700Inspiron 3800Inspiron 4000Inspiron 4100Inspiron 4150Inspiron 5000Inspiron 5000EInspiron 500mInspiron 5100Inspiron 510mInspiron 5150
