A block diagram of a fuel cell. Design features in a fuel cell include: The electrolyte substance, which usually defines the type of fuel cell, and can be made from a number of substances like potassium hydroxide, salt carbonates, and phosphoric acid. [18] The most common fuel that is used is hydrogen.
English: Department of Energy's Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Fuel Cell Technologies Program Fuel cell comparison chart. This shows a summary of the different types of fuel cells. Materials on the EERE Web site are in the public domain.
Example of cycling between fuel and exhaust in the C-H-O ternary diagram. One useful way to depict the cycling between SOFC and SOEC mode of the rSOC operation with carbonaceous reactants is the C-H-O ternary diagram. [6] Each point in the diagram represents a gas mixture with a different number of carbon, hydrogen or oxygen atoms.
Diagram of a phosphoric acid fuel cell. Phosphoric acid fuel cells (PAFC) are a type of fuel cell that uses liquid phosphoric acid as an electrolyte. They were the first fuel cells to be commercialized. Developed in the mid-1960s and field-tested since the 1970s, they have improved significantly in stability, performance, and cost.

The alkaline fuel cell (AFC), also known as the Bacon fuel cell after its British inventor, Francis Thomas Bacon, is one of the most developed fuel cell technologies. Alkaline fuel cells consume hydrogen and pure oxygen, to produce potable water, heat, and electricity. They are among the most efficient fuel cells, having the potential to reach 70%.
Direct methanol fuel cells or DMFCs are a subcategory of proton-exchange membrane fuel cells in which methanol is used as the fuel and a special proton-conducting polymer as the membrane (PEM). Their main advantage is low temperature operation and the ease of transport of methanol, an energy-dense yet reasonably stable liquid at all ...
