em: sales@fuelcell.com ph: 1.781.938.5300 fx: 1.781.935.6966 For Complete Information and Pricing go to: www.fuelcell.com A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that converts hydrogen fuel into energy and water. Since the fuel cell only emits water as a byproduct, there are virtually no emissions from the fuel cell. Furthermore, a fuel cell does not use combustion to create energy, thus it is more efficient than other sources of energy. A basic fuel cell hardware unit consists of separator plates, current collector plates, the membrane electrode assembly (MEA), gaskets, and possibly...

em: sales@fuelcell.com ph: 1.781.938.5300 fx: 1.781.935.6966 For Complete Information and Pricing go to: www.fuelcell.com Energy is created by a fuel cell when hydrogen gas enters the anode (the negatively charged electrode) where a catalyst (often platinum in low temperature fuel cells) separates the gas into H+ ions (i.e. individual protons) and electrons. The protons are drawn directly through the membrane into the cathode (the positively charged electrode). The electrons, at the same time, pass through a wire on the anode to the device that the fuel cell is being used to power and back...

Catalyst- Any substance that reduces the amount of energy needed to induce a chemical reaction. In the case of PEM fuel cells, Platinum reduces the amount of energy needed to break apart and oxidize hydrogen gas. Cathode- The electrode on the positively charged (collecting) end of the fuel cell. Electrode- An electrically conductive material placed on the emitting or collecting end of a fuel...
