What are the main types of fuel cells?
Fuel cells have experienced several stages of development, including alkaline, phosphoric acid, molten carbonates and solid oxides. Fuel cell research and applications are developing at an extremely fast pace.
A wide range of fuel cells, in addition to hydrogen and oxygen proton exchange membrane fuel cells, as well as molten carbonate fuel cells, solid oxide fuel cells, metal air batteries and so on.
According to the different types of electrolytes, can be divided into alkaline, phosphoric acid, polymer type, molten carbonate type, solid electrolyte fuel cell.
According to the different ways of dealing with fuel, can be divided into direct, indirect and renewable.
(AFC, operating temperature of 100 ℃), solid polymer type proton membrane fuel cell (PEMFC, also known as proton membrane fuel cell, operating temperature of 100 ℃ or less) and phosphoric acid Type fuel cell (PAFC, operating temperature of 200 ℃) known as low-temperature fuel cell.
