PEM Fuel Cells: Fundamentals, Advanced Technologies, and Practical
Application provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles
of PEM fuel cell, their working condition and application, and the
latest breakthroughs and challenges for fuel cell technology. Each
chapter follows a systematic and consistent structure with clear
illustrations and diagrams for easy understanding. The opening
chapters address the basics of PEM technology; stacking and
membrane electrode assembly for PEM, degradation mechanisms of
electrocatalysts, platinum dissolution and redeposition,
carbon-support corrosion, bipolar plates and carbon nanotubes for
the PEM, and gas diffusion layers. Thermodynamics, operating
conditions, and electrochemistry address fuel cell efficiency and
the fundamental workings of the PEM. Instruments and techniques for
testing and diagnosis are then presented alongside practical tests.
Dedicated chapters explain how to use MATLAB and COMSOL to conduct
simulation and modeling of catalysts, gas diffusion layers,
assembly, and membrane. Degradation and failure modes are discussed
in detail, providing strategies and protocols for mitigation.
High-temperature PEMs are also examined, as are the fundamentals of
EIS. Critically, the environmental impact and life cycle of the
production and storage of hydrogen are addressed, as are the risk
and durability issues of PEMFC technology. Dedicated chapters are
presented on the economics and commercialization of PEMFCs,
including discussion of installation costs, initial capital costs,
and the regulatory frameworks; apart from this, there is a separate
chapter on their application to the automotive industry. Finally,
future challenges and applications are considered. PEM Fuel Cells:
Fundamentals, Advanced Technologies, and Practical Application
provides an in-depth and comprehensive reference on every aspect of
PEM fuel cells fundamentals, ideal for researchers, graduates, and
students.
