Selecting Between Hydrogen and Methanol for Fuel Cell‐Organic Rankine Cycle Hybrid Power Systems: A Comparative 4E Analysis

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 9, Page 4248-4260, September 2026.
A 4E comparison of PEMFC‐ORC and DMFC‐ORC systems shows that PEMFC‐ORC achieves 21% higher energy efficiency, while DMFC‐ORC obtains 31% higher exergy efficiency and 57% lower levelized cost of electricity. However, DMFC‐ORC emits nearly twice the annual carbon dioxide equivalent of PEMFC‐ORC.

The effect of different valency cations on DMFC performance

open access: yes, 2010
An in situ study of the effects of Na(+), Mg(2+) and Cr(3+) on direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) performance is reported. The result showed that dramatic decrease of the cell voltage was mainly ascribed to the increase of the cathode overpotential ...

Nanostructured Sulfonated Polystyrene/Modified Chitosan Composite Membranes for Direct Methanol Fuel Cells

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 9, September 2026.
A series of SPS‐based proton exchange membranes is presented in which chitosan and PWCS nanostructures tailor free volume, enhance proton‐conducting pathways, and suppress methanol transport. The optimized SPS‐PWCS membrane delivers high proton conductivity, moderated methanol permeability, and the highest selectivity, revealing an effective structural
