商品描述
Global warming switches our reliance from fossil fuels to green, sustainable renewable energy sources. Because of its promising nature, high-efficiency nano-electrocatalysts have sparked interest in renewable energy. Hydrogen fuel cell/polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) vehicles are the most environmentally conscious electromobility vehicles, with a high energy density and quick refuelling technology, prompting the auto industry to launch a variety of PEM fuel cell vehicles around the world. Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) primary research interests include fuel cells and metal-air batteries. The sluggish kinetic reaction of ORR, which is responsible for the rate-limiting reaction at the PEM fuel cell cathodic system, further decreases energy efficiency. Optimising ORR for market expansion with cost-effective and efficient nano-electrocatalysts, on the other hand, remains a challenge.
The book covers fundamental ORR reaction kinetics theories, tools, and techniques. It also explains the nano electrocatalysts for ORR made of noble, non-noble, and nanocarbon materials. Finally, the book explores the applications of PEM fuel cells and metal-air batteries.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
全球暖化使我們從化石燃料轉向綠色、可持續的可再生能源來源。由於其前景看好,高效能的奈米電催化劑引起了對可再生能源的興趣。氫燃料電池/聚合物電解質膜(PEM)車輛是最具環保意識的電動交通工具,具有高能量密度和快速加油技術,促使汽車產業在全球推出各種PEM燃料電池車輛。氧還原反應(ORR)的主要研究興趣包括燃料電池和金屬空氣電池。ORR的反應動力學緩慢,這是PEM燃料電池陰極系統中速率限制反應的原因,進一步降低了能量效率。然而,利用具成本效益和高效能的奈米電催化劑來優化ORR以擴展市場仍然是一個挑戰。
本書涵蓋了基本的ORR反應動力學理論、工具和技術。它還解釋了由貴金屬、非貴金屬和奈米碳材料製成的ORR奈米電催化劑。最後,本書探討了PEM燃料電池和金屬空氣電池的應用。
