IntroductionIntroduction
Hydrogen peroxide fuel cell (HPFC) is an air independent Hydrogen peroxide fuel cell (HPFC) is an air independent
energy generation system, which may supply potentially wide energy generation system, which may supply potentially wide
variety of applications due to the high energy efficiency and variety of applications due to the high energy efficiency and
low noise properties. This new type of mono-component fuel low noise properties. This new type of mono-component fuel
cell possesses many advantages in relation to the cell possesses many advantages in relation to the
conventional fuel cells such as liquid fuel utilization (low conventional fuel cells such as liquid fuel utilization (low
concentrated hydrogen peroxide), evolved oxygen, low concentrated hydrogen peroxide), evolved oxygen, low
operating temperature (up to 70 degrees Celsius) and higher operating temperature (up to 70 degrees Celsius) and higher
thermal efficiency. It could power devices and automobiles thermal efficiency. It could power devices and automobiles
with no tailpipe emissions, provides energy to homes and with no tailpipe emissions, provides energy to homes and
factories with virtually no smokestack pollution and use a factories with virtually no smokestack pollution and use a
renewable and domestic energy sourcerenewable and domestic energy source
