A deep analysis of the Fuel Cells technologies state of the art has been done in this article. After a general description of the fuel cell base structure the six most important fuel cell technologies Polymeric Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC), Direct Methanol Fuel Cells (DMFC), Alkaline Fuel Cells (AFC), Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell (PAFC), Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell (MCFC), Solid Oxide Fu...

Composite and nanocomposite samarium doped ceria-carbonates powders were prepared by solid-state reaction, citric acid-nitrate combustion and modified nanocomposite approaches and used as electrolytes for low temperature solid oxide fuel cells. X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscope, low-temperature Nitrogen Adsorption/desorption Experiments, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy and ...

The soil-mushroom transfer of thorium and uranium was analyzed in two ecologically similar but geographically separated Spanish ecosystems by means of the transfer factor, TF. Uranium TF values were in the range 0.043-0.49, and thorium TF values in the range 0.030-0.62. These values were similar to those of (90)Sr, (239+240)Pu, and (241)Am found previously in the same ecosystems. Given the low ...

the application of conductive coatings on ferritic stainless steel can decrease electrical conductivity. theaim of this research was to investigate the electrical conductivity of cobalt coated aisi 430 ferritic stainlesssteel by pack cementation technique. coated coupons were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy(sem). electrical conductivity of the coated substrates was measured as a fun...

A configuration made up of two nested magnetically insulated transmission lines, the inner one carrying a high voltage lower current – and the outer one a high current lower voltage – pulse, was in a previous communication proposed for the ignition of a magnetic field assisted thermonuclear detonation wave. Unlike the fast ignition concept, it does not require the compression of the DT fusion f...

reduced graphene oxide film was synthesized on a glassy carbon electrode by electro reduction of graphene oxide powders in aqueous solution. then platinum nano particles were deposited on reduced graphene oxide film that was deposited on the glassy carbon electrode via electro reduction of platinum salt. the physical morphology of the platinum on reduced graphene oxide film was evaluated by sca...
