Hydrogen peroxide fuel cell Sofia, 2004 “Fuel cell systems and technologies” Ltd
2
Introduction Hydrogen peroxide fuel cell (HPFC) is an air independent energy generation system, which may supply potentially wide variety of applications due to the high energy efficiency and low noise properties. This new type of mono-component fuel cell possesses many advantages in relation to the conventional fuel cells such as liquid fuel utilization (low concentrated hydrogen peroxide), evolved oxygen, low operating temperature (up to 70 degrees Celsius) and higher thermal efficiency. It could power devices and automobiles with no tailpipe emissions, provides energy to homes and factories with virtually no smokestack pollution and use a renewable and domestic energy source
