Grigorii L. Soloveichik General Electric Global Research, Niskayuna, NY 12309, USA 10.3762/bjnano.5.153 Abstract The advantages of liquidfuelcells (LFCs) over conventional hydrogen–oxygen fuel cells include a higher theoretical energy density and efficiency, a more convenient handling of the
exchange membranes; direct alcohol fuel cells; direct borohydride fuel cells; electrocatalysts; liquidfuelcells; organic fuel; proton exchange membranes; Introduction
Fuel cells are considered to be one of the key elements of the “hydrogen economy”, in which hydrogen generated from renewable energy
relatively small modifications. However, in spite of the progress made in the last years, current technology is not yet close to meeting the revised targets of the United States Department of Energy (DOE) [25].
