Forward-looking next-generation fuel cell

Notebook computers(pa3285u-1brs, pa3285u-2brs, pa3284u-1brs, toshiba tecra a1 battery, toshiba tecra a8 battery, toshiba satellite a15 battery, toshiba satellite a10 battery and a1185, macbook 13), mobile phones, PDAs and other portable terminals, the development of mobile environments ability to continue to supply more and more demanding than ever. Over the years the concept and the pilot phase in the fuel cell technology, is to develop the background, from behind the scenes to speed up the pace towards the future. Not long ago, Toshib a, Fujitsu, NEC, such as in the practical application of fuel cell research has made significant progress, and some are even equipped with the introduction of a fuel cell technology, such as the prototype of the notebook computer. Virginia in the United States organized by SFC 2004 (Small Fuel Cells 2004,2004 seminars in small fuel cells), the number of new results have appeared at the same time. Small-scale fuel cells into the theme for this session, while the pursuit of a higher power, longer time of continuous power supply.

Korean manufacturers

Samsung Institute of Advanced Technology (SAIT) The successful development of notebook computers that can support the normal work of 10 hours of fuel cell systems, and SFC 2004 announced some of the technical specifications. Its maximum output power of 20W, fuel use 100ml methanol-water solution, a very direct supply of fuel methanol-water solution of “direct methanol (Direct Methanol)” mode. In order to increase the output density, Samsung improved the electrode catalyst coating methods. Samsung Electronics plans to begin production by the end of 2005 the use of this fuel-cell laptop(pa3534u-1brs, pa3535u-1brs, toshiba satellite a200 battery, toshiba satellite a202 battery, toshiba satellite a203 battery, toshiba satellite a205 battery, toshiba satellite a210 battery, toshiba satellite a215 battery).

In addition, Samsung also announced a portable terminal for the other fuel cell development program. These include: development before and after 2006 for 4th generation mobile communication systems, power 2W ~ 5W for small fuel cells; before and after 2006 will be fuel cell energy density per unit volume from the current 200Wh / l to about 500Wh / l, achieved with existing lithium-ion rechargeable battery the same level.

U.S. manufacturers

Motorola United States on its fuel cell technology R & D strategy, announced a major turning point, that is, its response to the portable terminal to suspend the use of fuel cell-based direct methanol fuel supply, in turn committed to the development of hydrogen from the methanol extract and supply to the fuel cell unit, “Modification of methanol-based” products. And is responsible for methanol reforming reaction of methanol and water parts of vaporization, as well as to those parts of the heater heating fuel component for the integration of Motorola known as the feeder was FP (Fuel Processor, fuel cell processor). FP as a new fuel cell technology, Motorola’s core, the company announced the SFC 2004 on its 3rd generation of the technical content of FP(dell inspiron 1300 battery, dell inspiron b120 battery, dell inspiron b130 battery, dell latitude 120l battery, hd438, kd186).

It is said that the 3rd generation FP through structural improvements, the use of fuel cell response to the phenomenon of temperature rise resulting from accelerated evaporation of the reaction of methanol to enhance the efficiency of the reaction, so that the maximum power density 250mW/cm2, is a prototype direct methanol-type 4 ~ 5 times.

Another U.S. manufacturer Neah Power Systems Corporation (Intel one of the shareholders for their investment), published in the direct methanol-type fuel cell materials used in the realization of porous silicon electrode (fuel and air very very) technology. Since the electrode has a porous silicon, which makes the promotion of reaction per unit area to increase the number of the catalyst, thereby increasing power density, allegedly the result of the test sample can be achieved 90mW/cm2.

German manufacturer

SFC German company (Smart Fuel Cell AG) has been demonstrated hundreds of customers to sell fuel cell products – 25W average output power for portable fuel cells “SFC A25″. The product of direct methanol fuel supply, using 100% methanol as fuel. Its next-generation products will be alleged in the July 1, 2004 listing.

In addition, the company also plans to market in early 2005 can be placed in a small fuel cell suitcase “SFC C25-40y6799, asm92p1140, fru92p1137, fru92p1139, fru92p1141, ibm thinkpad r60 battery, ibm thinkpad r60e battery, ibm thinkpad t60 battery“, in the listing by the end of 2005 specifically for notebook computers and PDA’s small fuel cells “SFC PowerBoy” (Figure 1). SFC A25 is the average output power of 25W, maximum output power up to 80W, the use of methanol storage box capacity of 2.5l, Size size 150mm × 112mm × 65mm, weighs 1.1kg. SFC C25 for the average input power 25W, but will use 125ml of methanol storage box. SFC PowerBoy smaller and weighs just 700g.

Another German manufacturer announced Institut Solare Energiesysteme printed circuit board using fuel cell technology. After the adoption of this technology, fuel and air extremely highly by the printed circuit board in the metal wire consists of thin-film electrolyte membrane is used. The aqueous solution of methanol and air feed lines of the gas supply line is designed by the printed circuit board formed by the channel. This allows the thickness of the fuel cell system reduced to only 3.5mm, for small and provides an excellent condition. It is learned that as long as the design of printed circuit board and a number of such fuel cell units in series with each other and they can in order to improve the planar structure of the output voltage (Figure 2). SFC 2004 on display in the sample using the technology of the maximum power of about 8W.

[Shenyang] private collection of waste batteries will be subject to severe penalties

From now on, all in Shenyang hazardous waste will not be free to carry out the acquisition and processing(toshiba satellite l203 battery, toshiba satellite l205 battery, toshiba satellite m200 battery, toshiba satellite m205 battery, toshiba satellite m216 battery, toshiba satellite pro a200 battery, toshiba satellite pro a210 battery). July 26 journalists from the City Environmental Protection Bureau was informed that in accordance with the requirements of the State Environmental Protection Administration, Shenyang City, will be eligible for the implementation of hazardous waste operating permit system. In addition to the Environmental Protection Agency designated the city of two sound disposal of 21 units and the use of fixed-point processing units, other units and individuals shall not be arbitrarily re-acquisition of hazardous wastes and the use of the.

Shenyang Environmental Protection Agency Solid Waste Management Office Deputy Director told reporters, according to the relevant provisions of the unit of solid waste generated can not be disposed of in hazardous waste will not be sold or disposed of hazardous waste does not address the quality of the units or individuals, in order to avoid leakage of hazardous wastes, environmental and public health.

Xuyunchuan At present, Shenyang individual enterprises are still ignoring the provisions of the hazardous waste directly betrayed. Some officers of illegal foreign acquisition of a number of private waste batteries, developer, hazardous waste paper scrap linoleum. These hazardous wastes into their hands the future because there is no associated processing equipment, thus they are only one of the heavy metals extracted substances, will be lost to other parts of society, the risk of new problems.

To this end, the City Environmental Protection Agency stepped up its hazardous waste management, the implementation of business eligible for the permit system, those who are not licensed private organizations and individuals in the acquisition of hazardous waste, must be severely punished(346970-001, hstnn-db02, hstnn-ib04, hstnn-ub02, hp pavilion zv6000 battery, hp presario r3000 battery, hp pavilion zv5000 battery and acer lcbtp03003, acer travelmate 4000 battery, acer travelmate 3000 battery), if the consequences of the event, but also those whose criminal responsibility in accordance with the law. Environmental protection departments at the same time hope that the masses in reporting, so that the risk of unauthorized acquisition of waste collection in hand as soon as possible.
