Build Your Own Fuel Cells
<p>The technology of the future is here today - and now available to the non-engineer! <i>Build Your Own Fuel Cells</i> contains complete, easy to understand illustrated instructions for building several types of proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells - and, templates for 6 PEM fuel cell types, including convection fuel cells and oxygen-hydrogen fuel cells, in both single slice and stacks.</p> <p><strong>Low tech/high quality</strong></p> <p>Two different low-tech fuel cell construction methods are covered: one requires a bandsaw and drill press, and the other only a few hand tools. Anyone with minimum skills and tools will be able to produce high quality fuel cells from readily obtainable materials - contact info for materials suppliers is included.</p> <p><strong>Electrolyzers and MEAs</strong></p> <p><i>Build Your Own Fuel Cells</i> includes a detailed discussion of building a lab electrolyzer to generate hydrogen to run fuel cells - and templates for the electrolyzer. Also covered is setting up a PV solar panel to power the electrolyzer, and experimental low-tech methods for producing membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs - the heart of the fuel cell).</p> <p><i>Build Your Own Fuel Cells</i>, 221 pages, over 140 B&W photos and illustrations, including 39 templates.</p>
