Fabrication Hydrogen Generation System from Application Backup Power of PEMFC Stacks

This research fabrication hydrogen generator and effects of hydrogen gas from Al powder. The hydrogen production the reaction between activated CNTs/Al and water has been investigated. The effect of different parameters such as water, Al ratio, CNTs/Al and pressure ratio. Reactor hydrogen generation consists of NaOH tank, filter cylinder and gas replace the water tank. The resulting rate and yield of hydrogen production from the reaction between activated Al/CNTs and water have been investigated.The effects of different parameters such as water, pressure ratio, and CNTs/Al ratio, in-house developed Al activation method involves 0-5 vol. %CNTs of the NaOH solution activator which is diffused into the Al powder,the highest hydrogen production rates in the range of 0.5 -0.7 l/second/g Al and hydrogen yield about 90.01%, depending on operating parameters, were demonstrated.Hydrogen gas generated from the hydrolysis of the CNTs/Al composite has high purity without any production of undesirable CO. PEMFC produced electricity with hydrogen generated from the hydrolysis of pressure 6 N/m(2) at 5 vol. % of CNTs/ Al composites. The CNTs/Al composite was effectively used as a hydrogen source for PEMFC.
