Direct Methanol Fuel Cell Development
Direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) are being investigated as future power sources for a variety of electronic devices such as laptop computers and cell phones. NRC has a number of facilities to develop and test anode catalysts for DMFC applications. DMFCs have the potential to be lighter and have longer run times than today's batteries. In addition, refuelling the system would take much less time than recharging a battery. |
