Ammonia fuel cell

摘要

This invention refers to generating electrical energy comprising an ammonia fuel cell for generating electrical energy including a catalyst being in contact with a high temperature proton conducting membrane and the catalyst comprising at least one decomposition catalyst which causes NH₃ to decompose to N₂ and H₂ and at least one catalytic anode which dissociates and ionizes H₂ into H⁺ and electrons, the fuel cell further including at least one catalytic cathode for reaction of H⁺, electrons and oxygen to form H₂O, an external circuit from the catalytic anode to the catalytic cathode, an ammonia source for introducing ammonia into the fuel cell, a gas exit for N₂, and an oxygen source.
