Abstract:The fuel cell researches using the molten salts, oxides, and others as electrolytes were conducted in the early 20th century. In 1921, the high-temperature fuel cell of 1.5 kW was demonstrated using molten carbonate as the electrolyte.The basic configuration of the current fuel cell in which the porous structures of the cathode and anode are sandwiched between electrolytes was established in 1933 in the Bacon cell that used alkaline water solution as the electrolyte and nickel sintered compact as the electrode… Show more
