Research Summary

A Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC) is a type of fuel cell that generates electricity through the electrochemical reaction between methanol and oxygen. Unlike traditional hydrogen-based fuel cells, DMFCs use liquid methanol as a fuel source, which is directly fed to the anode of the cell. Inside the cell, methanol is oxidized to release protons and electrons, producing electric current and carbon dioxide as byproducts. DMFCs are attractive for portable and small-scale power applications, such as portable electronic devices and backup power systems, due to their relatively simple fuel storage and transportation compared to hydrogen-based fuel cells. They offer advantages like high energy density, rapid start-up, and quiet operation, making them a viable option for specific situations where efficient and compact power generation is needed.
