PURPOSE:To provide a portable type fuel cell which is capable of processing reactive products in the inside of the body of the fuel cell by providing means to accommodate the reactive products due to the operation of the fuel cell or means to absorb the reactive products in the inside of the cell system. CONSTITUTION:A fuel tank 3 is divided into three divisions and an accommodating chamber 8 for absorbent for carbon dioxide, which has a detachable inlet port in an outlet port for the carbon deoxide connected to a fuel electrode, is provided in the upper division, and a tank 9 for product water, which has a detachable inlet port in an outlet port for air connected to an air electrode, is provided in the lower division, and the middle of the tank is for the division for accommodating the fuel. Soda lime, caustic alkali, ethanol amine etc. are used as CO2 absorbent. Starch-acrylonitrile hydrolitic products, cellulose graft products, polyacrylic sodium and polyvinylalcohol cross-linking products etc. are used as water absorbing agent for product water, however, a tank for storing the product water may be installed in a part of the body of the fuel cell instead of the use of the water absorbing agent. |
