This concise sourcebook of the electrochemical, engineering and economic principles involved in the development and commercialization of fuel cells offers a thorough review of applications and techno-economic assessment of fuel cell technologies, plus in-depth discussion of conventional and novel approaches for generating energy. Parts I and II explain basic and applied electrochemistry relevant to an understanding of fuel cells, including the electrode kinetics and electrocatalysis of charge-transfer reactions, along with and experimental techniques pertinent to fuel cell research and development. Part III covers engineering and technology aspects, including discussion of fuels, fuel processing and fuel storage, transmission, and distribution. Part IV addresses applications and economics. The book is useful for undergraduate and graduate students and scientists interested in fuel cells. Unlike any other current book on fuel cells, each chapter includes problems based on the discussions in the text.
