    Fuel cells generate electricity through an electrochemical reaction of hydrogen fuels rather than combustion. They work similarly to batteries by having an anode, cathode, and electrolyte, but do not require recharging. Fuel cells produce electricity through a silent reaction and convert chemical energy directly into electricity, heat, and water. They are also very efficient and emit primarily water, with little to no carbon dioxide if run on pure hydrogen. Ceramic Fuel Cells designs and manufactures fuel cells and systems to optimize these clean energy benefits.

    Fuel cell facts

    What is a fuel cell?


    Its a better way to more efficient, cleaner energy.
    Heres how:
    A fuel cell is a device that efficiently generates electricity from hydrogen rich fuels, through a clean electrochemical reaction rather than dirty combustion. A fuel cell is similar to a battery in that it provides continuous DC electricity from a chemical reaction. Like a battery, it has an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte. Unlike batteries, fuel cells cannot store electrical energy, do not run flat, or require electricity to charge them. Fuel cells can continuously generate electricity as long as they have a supply of fuel and air.

    How are fuel cells different from other electricity generators?


    Unlike internal combustion engines or coal/gas powered turbines, fuel cells do not burn fuel. This means there are no noisy high-pressure rotors or loud exhaust noise and vibration. Fuel cells produce electricity though a silent electrochemical reaction. They also convert the chemical energy in the fuel directly into electricity, heat, and water.

    How efficient are fuel cells in generating energy?


    Very. And because fuel cells dont burn the fuel through combustion, they dont produce large quantities of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrogen oxide (NOx). Fuel cell emissions amount to water in the form of steam and low levels of carbon dioxide - or no CO2 at all, if the cell uses pure hydrogen as a fuel.

    How is Ceramic Fuel Cells optimising these benefits?


    A fuel cell needs sophisticated operating systems to function properly. Ceramic Fuel Cells designs and manufactures fuel cells as well as complete fuel cell systems. Ceramic Fuel Cells products have the potential to generate electricity much more efficiently and more cleanly than traditional fossil fuel-based combustion technologies.
