Electrochemical energy conversion: methanol fuel cell as example

Abstract: Apresentamos aqui as limitações termodinâmicas e cinéticas da energia de conversão eletroquímica para o caso da cela de combustível metanol/oxigênio. A detecção de produtos e intermediários é demonstrada usando espectroscopia FTIR in situ e espectrometria de massas on line. A catálise bifuncional da oxidação do metanol pelas superfícies do tipo PtRu é explicada. Discutimos a formação de HCOOH e HCHO através de passos paralelos reacionais. Um exemplo da tecnologia do sistema DMFC é apresentado.Thermodynamic and… Show more

“…Those experiments were carried out using 0.5 mol L -1 of methanol dissolved in aqueous 0.5 mol L -1 of HClO 4 media. Transitions to temporal chaos by period doubling in the electrooxidation of 1 mol L -1 of CH 3 OH on platinum in 0.5 H 2 SO 4 electrolyte at 43 o C and under galvanostatic control were reported by Okamoto and co-workers. 19 Using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, Lee et al 20,21 discussed the presence of temporal instabilities in the platinum/sulfuric acid/methanol system and identified a region of hidden negative differential resistance as primarily responsible for the occurrence of oscillations.…”

“…[1][2][3] Limitations associated to the high overpotential and the existence of parallel reaction pathways makes its understanding a rather challenging task. Studies have been carried out mainly on platinum surfaces, both polycrystalline and single crystals, by means of different electrochemical approaches sometimes coupled to other in situ and on line techniques.…”

“…Uma exceção a essa classificação é a DMFC (pilha a combustível com metanol direto), na qual o anodo é alimentado diretamente com metanol, sem a reforma prévia deste 6 . Uma segunda classificação pode ser feita segundo a temperatura de operação.…”
