| Abstract | The emissions due to the combustion of fossil fuels in vehicles
cause the air pollution problem to a great extent. A potential
solution is to substitute the detrimental combustion engines
with environmentally friendly proton exchange membrane
fuel cells (PEMFC). Such fuel cells have many advantages,
including high efficiency, high power density, light weight,
low operating temperature and rapid startup. This review
paper presents the scientific fundamentals of PEMFC and its
development. The effects of important design and operating
parameters on the fuel cell performance are discussed.
Moreover, comparisons with other types of fuel cells and
hydrogen internal combustion engine (ICE) are provided.
The above evaluation shows the promise of using PEMFC to
replace existing fossil fuel ICE in transportation for our future
hydrogen economy and sustainable development. |
