5 FAQs about [Environmental Assessment of Proton Membrane Flow Battery Project]

What is a proton exchange membrane fuel cell?

A proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell, an alternative to combustion processes that consume fossil resources, is used to convert energy stored in the form of hydrogen into electricity. The membrane - electrode assembly (MEA), the core of this system, contains platinum, a noble metal, which is a limited resource.

Can a proton exchange membrane fuel cell be used in lightweight FCVS?

Miotti evaluated the environmental impact (E− LCA) and cost (LCC) of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system for use in lightweight FCVs and integrated these results into a comparative assessment between FCVs, battery electric vehicles (BEVs), and internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs).

How are environmental impacts assessed in a molten carbonate fuel cell?

The environmental impacts were assessed using the CML-IA baseline V3.02 method. This method was used previously by Zucaro et al. (2013) in a LCA of a molten carbonate fuel cell, which is in accordance with the guideline for performing LCAs on fuel cells (Masoni and Zamagni, 2011). 3.1.

What is a PEM fuel cell?

2. PEM fuel cells A MEA is a stack cell comprising two GDLs, two electrodes (an anode and a cathode) and an ion conducting membrane that is occasionally supported by a polymeric gasket (see Fig. 1). When the fuel cell operates, hydrogen is oxidised at the platinum surface of the anode into H + and electrons.

Why is Nafion ® membrane recycling important?

Furthermore, tetrafluoroethylene production is the second burden of MEA life-cycle, and its importance in the PEM fuel cell life-cycle is increased, so Nafion ® membrane recycling should be investigated.
