Transport phenomena in alkaline direct ethanol fuel cells for sustainable energy production

Research output: Journal article publicationReview articleAcademic researchpeer-review

Abstract

As a result, the alkaline DEFC technology has undergone a rapid progress over the last decade. This article provides a comprehensive review of transport phenomena of various species in this fuel cell system. The past investigations into how the design and structural parameters of membrane electrode assemblies and the operating parameters affect the fuel cell performance are discussed. In addition, future perspectives and challenges with regard to transport phenomena in this fuel cell system are also highlighted.
