Direct Methanol Fuel Cells (DMFC) utilize a membrane as an electrolyte and produce electricity directly from liquid methanol, eliminating the need for a fuel reformer.

We can help fuel cell designers and material suppliers understand and improve:

• Electrode overpotential losses and polarization behavior
• Efficiency of fuel utilization
• Power density and temperature distribution
• Methanol crossover effect
• Void fraction distributions
• Cathode catalyst poisoning by methanol
• Utilization of catalyst
• Geometry and operating conditions and their effects on performance
• Fuel cell stack and system level performance
