Fuel Cell Distributed Power Generation

The distributed cogeneration system is directly aimed at end users. Compared with the traditional energy consumption mode of centralized production, transportation, and end consumption, the distributed energy supply system directly provides users with different energy categories, which can minimize transportation consumption. , and effectively utilize the waste heat generated in the power generation process, thereby improving energy utilization efficiency. Fuel cell distributed power generation has the advantages of high efficiency, low noise, small size, and low emissions. It is suitable for distributed power generation systems from kilowatts to megawatts close to users. The main application field is micro distributed combined heat and power (CHP) , large-scale distributed power plants or combined heat and power systems. At present, the technologies of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) have been successfully applied in household distributed combined heat and power systems and small and medium-sized distributed power plants.

As an emerging technology in the field of distributed power station applications, fuel cells are closely related to the speed of market promotion and the cost of power generation. Without considering policy subsidies, the cost of power generation is mainly composed of two parts, fuel cost and equipment depreciation cost.

Cheersonic’s fuel cell catalyst coating systems are uniquely suited for these challenging applications by creating highly uniform, repeatable, and durable coatings. Using the company’s patented ultrasonic spray head technology, it can spray uniformly and efficiently on proton exchange membranes and gas diffusion layers. Uniform catalyst coatings are deposited onto PEM fuel cells, GDLs, electrodes, various electrolyte membranes, and solid oxide fuel cells with suspensions containing carbon black inks, PTFE binder, ceramic slurries, platinum and other precious metals. Other metal alloys, including Platinum, Nickel, Ir, and Ru-based fuel cell catalyst coatings of metal oxide suspensions can be sprayed using ultrasonics for manufacturing PEM fuel cells, polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzer, DMFCs (Direct Methanol Fuel Cells) and SOFCs (Solid Oxide Fuel Cells) to create maximum load and high cell efficiency.

The advantages of Cheersonic’s ultrasonic equipment include:

1.Very high Platinum utilization proven in MEA fabrication; as high as 90%.
2.Non-clogging
3.Low-flow spray reduces spillage and air pollution.
4.Continuous or intermittent operation possible
5.Highly porous coatings are extremely durable, preventing cracking or peeling of catalyst layer.
6.No moving parts to wear out
7.Minimal maintenance and downtime.
8.Robust design and materials resist corrosion.
9.Ultrasonic energy disperses the agglomerated particles, producing a homogeneous coating.
