Title: | Direct formate fuel cells : a review | Authors: | An, L Chen, R |
Issue Date: | 15-Jul-2016 | Source: | Journal of power sources, 15 July 2016, v. 320, p. 127-139 | Abstract: | Direct formate fuel cells (DFFC), which convert the chemical energy stored in formate directly into electricity, are recently attracting more attention, primarily because of the use of the carbon-neutral fuel and the low-cost electrocatalytic and membrane materials. As an emerging energy technology, the DFFC has made a rapid progress in recent years (currently, the state-of-the-art power density is 591 mW cm-2 at 60 °C). This article provides a review of past research on the development of this type of fuel cell, including the working principle, mechanisms and materials of the electrocatalytic oxidation of formate, singe-cell designs and performance, as well as innovative system designs. In addition, future perspectives with regard to the development of this fuel cell system are also highlighted. | Keywords: | Cell performance Direct formate fuel cells Electrocatalysts Electrocatalytic mechanisms Fuel cells System designs |
