Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing a fuel cell unit using NH3 as a fuel gas, belonging to the fuel cell technique field. The clean BQAPPES or BQAPPESK or SPEEK electrolyte membranes are placed in hydrogen peroxide with a concentration of 4% under the temperature of 40-60 DEG C for dipping, washed by deionized water, heated for more than 2h in an alkaline solution with the concentration of 0.05-0.1 mol / L, then washed and dipped by the deionized water; the electrolyte membranes are dipped and stored in the alkaline solution with the concentration of 0.05-0.1 mol / L for standby. The standby electrolyte membranes, dipped more than 24h, together with carbon paper coated with Pt / C or Pt-Ru / C electrocatalysis are hot pressed into membrane electrodes; the membrane electrodes are put in moulds, with current collectors, to connect external loads; the O2+H2O or air is takes as cathode gas, the NH3 with a purity more than 99.9% is taken as anode fuel gas. The ammonia fuel cell has advantages of avoiding the envenom of the anode carbon and reducing the usage cost of hydrogen resource.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of NH 3 A method for preparing a fuel cell device as fuel gas belongs to the technical field of fuel cells. Background technique [0002] NH 3 As an important carrier of a hydrogen source, it is used as an alternative fuel gas for fuel cells after hydrogen and hydrocarbons (such as methane, methanol, etc.) due to its hydrogen content per unit molecule as high as 17.65%. Using NH 3 The advantages of being a fuel gas for fuel cells are: (1) Neither the raw material gas source nor the anode product contains CO, CO, which poisons the anode (such as noble metal Pt, etc.) 2 And other gases, thereby avoiding the adverse phenomena such as fuel cell performance degradation, short service life, and consumption of more catalysts. (2) NH 3 In the normal state, the gaseous and liquid forms are more common, and the properties are stable. Compared with hydrogen, it is more convenient and safer to store and transport. (3) ...
