What Is Hydrogen Fuel Cell?
Hydrogen Fuel Cells are the new source of power that has struck the Automotive Industries by 2019. A Hydrogen Fuel Cell is an electrochemical cell that converts the chemical energy of a fuel i.e., Hydrogen and an Oxidizing agent i.e., Oxygen into Electricity & Water through a pair of redox reaction.
How Hydrogen Fuel Cell Generates Electricity?
Hydrogen is fed to the Nickel Mesh anode, and Oxygen is fed to the Nickel Mesh cathode. Then a catalyst at the anode separates hydrogen molecules into protons and electrons, which take different paths to the Nickel cathode Mesh. The electrons then go through an external circuit, creating a flow of electricity.
What Are The By-Products?
In Hydrogen Fuel Cell Cars, The Hydrogen is filled externally, and Oxygen is taken from the surface atmosphere and this Oxidizing Agent i.e., Oxygen & Reducing Agent i.e., is fed to the Nickel Mesh Electrodes producing Electricity & Water.
Are Hydrogen Fuel Cell Eco-Friendly?
Hydrogen Fuel Cells are Eco Friendly as they produce Electricity & Water as by-product with 0 Carbon Emission and they are renewable source of energy.
What are Advantages of Hydrogen Fuel Cell over Normal Fuel Cell?
Renewable Source Of Energy
Hydrogen is the most abundantly available & Renewable Source of Energy can be a perfect solution for future zero-carbon needs for combined heat and power supplies.
More Energy Efficient Than Other Fuel Cells
Hydrogen Fuel Cell provides a high-density source of energy with good energy efficiency. Hydrogen has the highest energy content compared to any other fuel source by weight. Hydrogen have around three times the gravimetric energy density (around 120MJ/kg) of diesel and LNG and a similar volumetric energy density to natural gas.

No Carbon Footprints
With almost 0 emissions, hydrogen fuel cells do not release greenhouse gases, which means they do not have a impact to our ecosystem.
No Noise Pollution
Hydrogen Fuel Powered cars are much quieter than those that use conventional internal combustion engines.
Fast Charging Time
While Normal Fuel Cell vehicles require between 30 minutes and several hours to charge, Hydrogen Fuel Cells can be recharged in under five minutes. This fast-charging time make it more reliable source of energy than Energy produced by Normal Fuel Cells
More Mileage/ More Usage Backup
Hydrogen Fuel Cells offer greater efficiency or equal to the energy efficiency of a Normal Conventional Car and are much superior to that energy offered by Electric Vehicles (EVs)
Why Nickel Wire Mesh Suites Over Other Woven Wire Meshes?
Over other Grades of Metal Meshes, Nickel Wire Mesh have :
Nickel Mesh properties include:
1.High electrical conductivity
2.Good electrocatalytic activity
3.Adequate selectivity
4.Long-term mechanical stability
5. Corrosion resistance
6.Dimensional stability
7. Prolong chemical stability
8. Uninterrupted flow of electrolyte liquid
making it a top choice for Electrodes in Fuels Cells.
Nickel Wire Mesh have always been a superior choice cause of its Resistance to Corrosion in Alkaline Liquids, Dry Gases, Acids. Apart from this
