A fuel cell arrangement includes an electrolyte chamber with a fuel electrode arranged in contact with electrolyte and the fuel of the cell and having an air electrode arranged in contact with the electrolyte and with the atmosphere. The air electrode is formed of two porous layers having different porosity, the layer located nearest the electrolyte side having the finer pores. The electrolyte chamber is connected to a large storage vessel by electrolyte circulating means. The top of the storage vessel and the top of the electrolyte chamber are connected by a valved conduit to an evacuated container, which is also connected by a valved conduit to a suction pump capable of being operated by a battery charged by the output of the fuel cell. |
