Abstract

An100%battery-electricvehiclehasalimitedtraveldistanceabout150– 200 km and a battery life of about 5–6 years. A FC hybrid car has been demonstrated for the mileage about 500 km with a single full charge battery and 2 L of hydrogen. Currently available fuel cell materials (Platinum, Pt) appear to be adequate with a high-cost entry point, easily poisoned, fermented (forming alcohol), and gives off carbon monoxide (CO). The aim of this study is to develop a palladium (Pd)/lathanum cobaltite (LaCoO3) catalyst polymer proton-exchange-membrane (PEM) FC for the cost reduction, prevents FC poisoning, fermantation and energy efficient. Further- more, palladium a large volumetric quantity of H2 absorption at room temperature and forms palladium hydride (PdHx) could be an attraction for the FC technology devel- opment. Two-layers of Pd/LaCoO3 catalyst will be fused as a catalyst by gas-diffusion technique for the FC’S anode and cathode. The polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) will be fused together with the Pd/LaCoO3 catalyst for FC model. It is expected that Pd/La/CoO3_PEM FC stack will improve efficiency of FC about 40% and generate open-circuit-voltage 0.9 V and closed-circuit-current 1A.
