Anion Exchange Membranes for Alkaline Fuel Cells

Aniket R Khade

Abstract: This paper provides a thorough review of alkaline fuel cell, listing its benefits, which make it a potentially viable alternative to the traditional sources of energy generation. The article also lists the various drawbacks this technology faces, which prevents it from being commercialized on a large scale. It also addresses the major problems such as carbonization in the fuel cell, which renders the process inefficient and the alternative by using different materials so as to make the electricity generation process of the fuel cell more efficient. Although there has not been any consensus for the best set up of the alkaline fuel cell, the author suggests the best available configuration for optimum utilization of the technology. A lot of research can still go in to alkaline fuel cell technology so as to commercialize the technology and derive maximum benefits for humankind.
