What is a hydrogen fuel cell ?
•Hydrogen fuel cells (HFCs) are a type of
electrochemical cell.
•HFCs generate electricity by reduction and
oxidation reactions within the cell.
•They use three main components, a fuel, an
oxidant and an electrolyte.
•HFCs operate like batteries, although they
require external fuel.
•HFCs are a thermodynamically open system.
•HFCs use hydrogen as a fuel, oxygen as an oxidant,
a proton exchange membrane as an electrolyte, and
emit only water as waste.

How do they work?
•
Fuel (H2) is first transported to the
anode of the cell
•
Fuel undergoes the anode reaction
•
Anode reaction splits the fuel into
H+ (a proton) and e-
•
Protons pass through the
electrolyte to the cathode
•
Electrons can not pass through the
electrolyte, and must travel
through an external circuit which
creates a usable electric current
•
Protons and electrons reach the
cathode, and undergo the cathode
reaction

Zn-Air Applications
•
Commercial, primary Zn-air batteries have been used for many years:
– Initially used as large batteries for applications such as railroad signaling,
remote communications, and ocean navigational units requiring long term, low
rate discharge.
– With the development of thin electrodes, used in small, high capacity primary
cells, such as for hearing aids, small electronics, and medical devices.

Summary
• Primary Zn-air batteries have been very successful commercially.
• To take the technology to the next level, i.e, developing secondary,
electrically rechargeable batteries, or using Zn-air technologies for vehicle
propulsion, significant challenges must still be overcome:
– Understand the chemistry of the zincate anion in an alkaline solution.
– Develop stable bifunctional catalysts for both the oxygen reduction
reaction and oxygen evolution reaction.
– The air electrode should be optimized to reduce internal resistance.

Current Battery Outlook
• Metal-air batteries have attracted much attention
recently as a possible alternative, due to their
extremely high energy density compared to that of
other rechargeable batteries:
Eco-Materials group
Why Li-air ?
• Extremely high specific capacity of Li anode material (3842 mAh g-1 for lithium,
vs. 815 mAh g-1 for Zinc)
• The couple voltage of Li-O2 in alkaline electrolytes is 2.91 V (compared to 1.65
for Zn-O2)
• The Li-air battery, when fully developed, could have practical specific energies of
300 Wh kg-1
• Li-air cell electrically rechargeable

Secondary Li-Air Cells
• How are Li-air cells rechargeable?
Li(s) → Li+ + e(anode reaction)
Li+ + ½O2 + e- → ½Li2O2
(cathode reaction)
Li+ + e- + ¼O2 → ½Li2O
(cathode reaction)
• In 2006, Bruce et al. demonstrated that Li2O2 is formed on charging and
decomposes according to the reaction below:
Li2O2 → O2 + 2Li+ + 2e-

Configuration of Li - air
The critical differences between Li-ion and Li-Air are:
 Li-Air battery is an open system, because of oxygen is obtained from air
Anode:
Cathode:
catalyst
Eco-Materials group
MnOx based catalysts
•Catalysts will not only affect ORR & OER potential, but they also influence the specific
capacity
 MnO2 is the most common ORR catalyst for metal-air battery, because it is cheap & stable;
Besides, their ORR-catalytic activity (ORR poential ~ 2.6 V) can compare with most efficient
catalyst—Pt( 2.6 V)
 The Bruce group had investigated various MnOx catalysts(α,β,γ, -MnO2& Mn2O3, Mn3O4)

Capacity can achieve ~3000 mAh/g

Air Electrode Requirements
• Cathode must be able to sustain an oxygen reduction reaction
(and oxidation if battery is rechargeable).
• Cathode must be highly porous.
• Catalysts are typically incorporated into the carbon layer.
Eco-Materials group
Factors that affect performance
• Most metals are unstable in water and react with the electrolyte to corrode the
metal, resulting in self-discharge.
• Electrode carbonation: Absorption of CO2 (since the cell is an open system),
results in crystallization of carbonate in the air electrode, clogging pores and
decreasing performance.
• Water transpiration: Movement of water vapor either into or out of the cell.
– Excessive water loss can lead to drying of the cell and premature failure.
– Excessive gain of water can dilute the electrolyte.

New Tesla Patent: Electric Vehicle Extended Range
Hybrid Battery Pack System
▪ Patent : US 20130181511
Abstract
▪ A power source comprised of a first battery pack (e.g., a
non-metal-air battery pack) and a second battery pack (e.g.,
a metal-air battery pack) is provided, wherein the second
battery pack is used when the user selects an extended range
mode of operation. Minimizing use of the second battery
pack prevents it from undergoing unnecessary, and
potentially lifetime limiting, charge cycles.
