Naturwissenschaftliche Grundlagen, Funktionsprinzipien und der Stand der technologischen Umsetzung: Kein anderes Werk informiert Sie so umfassend über Brennstoffzellen!

- vier Bände beschäftigen sich mit Grundlagen und Systemen (1), zu Grunde liegenden Prinzipien der Elektrokatalyse (2) sowie Technologien und Anwendungen
(3 und 4)

- rund 170 Beiträge, geschrieben von mehr als 200 international renommierten Autoren aus Wissenschaft und Industrie, begutachtet von einem hochkarätigen
Herausgeberteam

- Band 1 erörtert grundlegende Themen wie Thermodynamik und Kinetik von
Brennstoffzellen, Charakteristika des Stoff- und Wärmetransports sowie
Funktionsprinzipien der wichtigsten Zelltypen

- Inhalt von Band 2 sind ausführliche Beiträge zur Elektrokatalyse, die in
Brennstoffzellen abläuft (von der Theorie über Analysen- und Messmethoden bis zu
verwandten Energieumwandlungsprozessen)

- Bände 3 und 4 sind anwendungsorientiert; zunächst werden Möglichkeiten zur
Speicherung des Brennstoffs diskutiert, anschließend stellen die Autoren bereits
funktionierende Zelltypen vor (diese arbeiten u.a. auf der Grundlage von
Phosphorsäure, Methanol, geschmolzenem Carbonat und festen Oxiden)

- interessante Anwendungen werden besprochen (tragbare Systeme, Antriebssysteme,
Generatoren

- auch ein Ausblick auf zukünftige Entwicklungen fehlt nicht

Über Autor(innen)

Vielstich, Wolf
Wolf Vielstich started research work on Fuel Fells and Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis at Ruhrchemie / Oberhausen. Working in the field of Fundamental and Applied Electrochemistry at the Institute of Physical Chemistry of Bonn University, he completed his Habilitation in Physical Chemistry in 1962. From 1965 he was a professor and director at the Bonn Institute. His special interest was new experimental methods like Rotating Ring Electrodes, online MS, Insitu IR and UHV-analysis of electrode surfaces, as well as to Batteries and Fuel Cells. His work in Electrochemistry has resulted in more than 250 publications, over 10 patents, books on Fuel Cells and Electrochemical Kinetics, and textbooks on Electrochemistry. From 1986 to 1993, Professor Vielstich was co-ordinator of the first European project on the DMFC and in 1998 he received the Faraday Medal of the Royal Chemical Society, UK.

Gasteiger, Hubert A.
Hubert A. Gasteiger has spent 9 years in academic research in fundamental electrocatalysis and fuel cell-related gas-phase catalysis, plus 5 years of industrial research and development in fuel cell components development. Dr Gasteiger was involved in the stack and stack-component design for GM / Opel's H2-powered Fuel Cell Cars (H1, H2, and H3), and since 1998 has been manager in stack components (membranes, catalysts, bipolar plate materials and coatings, MEAs) development at GM/Opel's Global Alternative Propulsion Center in Mainz-Kastel, Germany, and at GM's Fuel Cell Activities facility in Honeoye Falls, New York, USA. Dr Gasteiger has published 45 publications in refereed journals and co-chaired the 2000 Gordon Research Conference on Fuel Cells.

Lamm, Arnold
Arnold Lamm has been involved in industrial research in this field for over 7 years, firstly at the DaimlerBenz research centre in Ulm, Germany, where his projects included methanol-reforming, methanolcatalysis, reactor engineering, thermodynamic calculations and system engineering of PEMFC-systems based on methanol. He also worked on the development of a simulation program as a basis for the first methanol-reformer car Necar III. He also worked as Project leader (PEMFC-power station) at the former AEG Energietechnik T&D, Frankfurt, Germany in a project with Ballard Generation Systems. Since 1997 Dr Lamm has been Senior manager for fuel cell systems at the central research of DaimlerChrysler, where his work has included a the demonstration of the worldwide first DMFC-vehicle, development of gasoline/diesel fuel processors for stationary and mobile applications and development of advanced components for FC-propulsion systems (e.g. air-supply). He holds over 40 patents on the fuel cell field.
