About FlowCath® Liquid Regenerating Fuel Cells

FlowCath^® is a technology that promises to make proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells competitive with conventional electricity generators, such as diesel generators, by  replacing the fixed platinum catalysts on the cathode with a liquid regenerating catalyst system. The liquid is continuously pumped through the fuel cell stack into an external regenerator and then back to the stack.

The technology reduces platinum content by up to 80% and simplifies the overall fuel cell system. As a consequence the technology not only radically reduces cost, it also improves durability and robustness of the system
