- Maintaining low levels of CO contamination is vital for efficient operation of fuel cells. This research, funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, developed a novel catalytic membrane to remove >95% trace CO in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). This highly efficient innovative design showed long catalyst lifetime offering even greener operation of PEMFCs. The approach also has wider applicability and has been used successfully in a project to prevent workplace air pollution by removal of volatile organic compounds. This was supported by a UK company that manufactures bespoke steel structures. (Dawn.Applin@gateway-chassis.co.uk, Gateway Chassis Ltd)
