Energies 2010, 3 1511 An attraction of these solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) is that the Na+ ion form of Nafion offers much greater stability than currently available OH− ion (anion) conducting membranes. However, the disadvantage of the Na+ ion form of Nafion is that the ionic conductivity is much lower than that of the H+ ion form of Nafion, and anion conducting membranes for OH−. This is determined by mobility of ions. The mobility of Na+ in water solution is seven times lower than that of H+ and four times lower than that of OH-. The internal resistance of the cell as measured by high frequency AC impedance was 0.47 Ω [101]. This value is much higher than that with H+ form Nafion, whose value is around or lower than 0.05 Ω [100]. Thus there will be a compromise between ionic conductivity and electrocatalyst activity at both anode and cathode. These factors affect the membrane, membrane-catalyst layer interface and the bounded electrocatalyst layers. Figure 3.

Anion Exchange Membranes (AEM) Gas diffusion layer NaOH circulation Cation exchange membrane Use of OH- conducting membranes or anion exchange membranes (AEM) can improve ionic conductivity and the fuel cell performance compared to use of CEMs. AEMs are solid polymer electrolyte membranes that contain positive ionic groups (e.g., quaternary ammonium (QA) functional groups such as poly—N+Me3) and mobile negatively charged anions (e.g., usually OH−). Some commercially available AEMs have been used for DAAFC applications. MORGANE®-ADP membranes from Solvay, S.A. were used as the solid polymer electrolyte for DMAFCs in several studies, which were normally used for salt electrodialysis [21,99,100,103].

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
