摘要: A simplified direct oxidation fuel cell system is disclosed. The constructed in such a manner that added to the anode as it consumed and water evaporated off at cathode so there no need for recirculation of unreacted or cathode. In addition, carbon dioxide generated from anodic reaction passively vented out by using C02 gas permeable membrane material integrated part chamber construction. It thus possible that, separation fluid occurs without outside chamber. one embodiment, includes permeable, liquid impermeable placed close proximity perform separation. accordance with further aspect invention, container delivery assembly provided, which separate conduits containers methanol leakproof interface. This allows mixing into solution, allow improved ability adjust concentration system. operates simple mechanical flow geometry. design minimizes loss via carryover crossover limiting introduction those fluids. passive separated, both pumping, ultimately will increase net power provided load due low parasitic losses.
