Abstract

L'invention divulguée comporte sur des piles à combustible redox à combustible direct employant des concentrations élevées en combustible liquide, par exemple du méthanol, de l'éthanol et de l'acide formique. L'invention concerne une pile à combustible redox à méthanol direct (DMRFC) et une pile à combustible redox à acide formique direct (DFARFC). Le comportement de polarisation de ces deux systèmes est comparé à celui d'une pile à combustible à méthanol direct (DMFC) et à celui d'une pile à combustible à acide formique (FAFC) classiques dans des concentrations en combustible similaires. Il a été observé que les piles à combustible classiques avec des concentrations élevées en combustible liquide souffrent de la traversée du combustible et d'une dépolarisation de la cathode, ce qui conduit à une réduction significative de l'efficacité, tandis que les systèmes à base redox selon l'invention, qui ne contiennent aucun catalyseur de métal noble au niveau de la cathode, ont révélé une amélioration de l'efficacité de la pile avec des concentrations en combustible plus élevées.
