The cells produce electricity from the methanol housed in the fuel cartridge supplemented by oxygen from the air. The methanol is then directly converted into electricity with heat, water vapor, and ...

As it is used in the chemical sector to make acetic acid, formaldehyde, and plastics, there is expected to be an increase in demand for renewable methanol throughout the projection period. To produce ...

This innovative concept allows fuel cells to operate effectively under high-temperature (above 100°C) and low-humidity conditions, addressing crucial barriers to their broader use. The research has ...

The research has been published in ACS Applied Polymer Materials. By electrochemically reacting hydrogen and oxygen, fuel cells produce electricity while emitting only water, highlighting their ...

A research group led by Atsushi Noro at Nagoya University in Japan has announced a novel design concept for fuel cell electrolytes, utilizing a phosphonic acid polymer with hydrocarbon spacers.

However, a new kid on the block can potentially compete with electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles. This new fuel, methanol, is now on the rise as a promising candidate for this role. Methanol could ...

uses to traverse the inner and outer layers of skin and emerge onto the skin's surface. The study identifies new cell types within the skin ...

You've heard of gas and electric-powered vehicles, but what about hydrogen-powered cars? Fuel cell electric vehicles use electricity to power an electric motor, just like a normal EV. However ...

Researchers from Nagoya University, led by Atsushi Noro, have introduced a groundbreaking phosphonic acid polymer electrolyte that enables fuel cells to operate under high temperatures (above 212 ...

Norwegian shipping hydrogen fuel cell pioneer Teco 2030 has admitted defeat in its efforts to continue operations. The Oslo-listed company filed for bankruptcy on Tuesday evening after running out ...
