Fuel Cells: Experiments, Construction & Background Information Research Fuel Cells R S S If you use an electrolyte with a low conductivity value, then the conversion efficiency (electrical power) of the fuel cell will decrease? R See if building a giant Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) would be a rational way of generating electricity and cleaning water. R Determine which wastewater sample creates the most millivolts using a microbial fuel cell (MFC) R Demonstrate that by electrolyzing water, using solar power, it is possible to produce the two gases, needed to power a hydrogen fuel cell to create electricity. S Will Changing the Composition of a Hydrogen Fuel Affect the Power Output? R A green method of making the hydrogen necessary for running hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. R Improve A Fuel Cell Powered Underwater Glider for Marine Exploration R The hydrogen fuel cell - how it works? R S S Build and demonstrate a homemade fuel cell. R R R Extending the Range of UAVs through the Use of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells and Other Renewable Energy Sources R Can hydrogen be generated and stored on a practical scale to replace our oil economy? R Find out the catalyst that will make a fuel cell more efficient? R R R R R Does temperature affect the performance of a fuel cell? R R S S Which is more efficient: fuel cells or solar cells? R Build a basic fuel cell using salt water, batteries, and a platinum wire. S Comparing the effect of electrical load on a fuel cell and rechargeable batteries S Does the amount of hydrogen used in a fuel cell affect the amount of electricity produced? R Why we need hydrogen cars? S Solar or methanol fuel cells - which is more efficient? R R Compare the Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) and the Direct Methanol (DM) Fuel cell cells and find out which one is better for running small appliances such as electric motors. R Investigate if natural seawater is comparable to artificially prepared solutions in providing an efficient means of hydrogen production through solar-powered electrolysis. R The Effect of Temperature on PEM Hydrogen Fuel Cell Efficiency R Improving the Performance of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Fuel Cells through Design Modifications R Investigate microbial fuel cell technology. R S Demonstrate that by replacing the fuel source of a gasoline combustion engine with hydrogen gas would produce fewer detrimental emissions while still maintaining a practical level of performance. R An efficient, low cost underwater glider that recycles energy by using a fuel cell as its method of propulsion R Mechanical Properties of Cesium Hydrogen Sulfate for Fuel Cell Applications R Describe alternative energy sources and outline advantages and disadvantages of any source.
