A
gas fed battery that never needs
recharging! This article
describes a process for building
a fuel cell using tools and techniques
any skilled hobbyist with a wellequipped shop can duplicate.
The fuel
cell that we built can produce direct
current electricity from stored hydrogen
and oxygen.
We obtained the hydrogen
for this fuel cell commercially but plan
to produce hydrogen and oxygen from
a renewable energy system based on
solar photovoltaics and water
electrolyzers.

Cookbook Approach to Building a Fuel Cell
In this article we reveal the process we used to make a
proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell.

First, we describe what the PEM material is, and where
to get it.
Then we cover the steps necessary for
preparing the membrane to use it in a fuel cell.

Next, we describe the catalyst and binders used on
both sides of the PEM and the met Less
