The last edition of the Fuel Cell Handbook was published in November, 2002. Since that time, the Solid State Energy Conversion Alliance (SECA-www.seca.doe.gov) has funded activities to bring about dramatic reductions in fuel cell costs, and rates as the most important event to report on since the 2000 edition. SECA industry teams’ have continued to evaluate and test fuel cell designs, candidate materials, manufacturing methods, and balance-of-plant subsystems. SECA’s goal is to cut costs to as low as $400 per kilowatt by the end of this decade, which would make fuel cells competitive for virtually every type of power application. The initiative signifies the Department's objective of developing a modular, all-solid-state fuel cell that could be mass- produced for different uses much the way electronic components are manufactured and sold today. SECA has six industry teams working on competing designs for the distributed generation and auxiliary power applications. These teams are headed by: FuelCell Energy, Delphi Battelle, General Electric Company, Siemens Westinghouse, Acumentrics, and Cummins Power Generation and SOFCo. The SECA industry teams receive core technology support from leading researchers at small businesses, universities and national laboratories. Over 30 SECA R&D projects are generating new scientific and engineering knowledge, creating technology breakthroughs by addressing technical risks and barriers that currently limit achieving SECA performance and cost goals. U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) SECA program, have considerably advanced the knowledge and development of thin-electrolyte planar SOFC. As a consequence of the performance improvements, SOFC are now considered for a wide range of applications, including stationary power generation, mobile power, auxiliary power for vehicles, and specialty applications. A new generation of intermediate temperature (650-800 oC) SOFCs is being developed under the U.S. DOE’s SECA program. Fuel processing by an autothermal, steam, or partial oxidation reformer that operates between 500-800 °C enables fuel cell operation on gasoline, diesel fuel, and other hydrocarbon fuels. This Handbook provides a foundation in fuel cells for persons wanting a better understanding of the technology, its benefits, and the systems issues that influence its application. Trends in technology are discussed, including next-generation concepts that promise ultra-high efficiency and low cost, while providing exceptionally clean power plant systems. Section 1 summarizes fuel cell progress since the last edition, and includes existing power plant nameplate data. Section 2 addresses the thermodynamics of fuel cells to provide an understanding of fuel cell operation. Sections 3 through 7 describe the five major fuel cell types and their performance.

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
