Micro fuel cells: new favorite portable powered

Fuel cells is not nothing new, yet with the micro fuel cell into the development and production stage, in 2007’s “fuel cell Tornado” should be struck. With the portable media players, digital cameras and video cameras, cell phone chargers, laptop XPS M1330 Battery power supply potential applications, fuel cell has entered a new stage of development.

ABI analyst pointed out that many companies are at a rapid pace in developing a prototype of the product. It is estimated that worldwide shipments of micro fuel cells will increase from the usher in astonishing: from 2004 to 5,000 in 2011 rose to 200 million. Casio, Hitachi, and Toshiba have developed a micro fuel cell can be immediately put into use.

The three are developing direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). New DMFC methanol concentration can be increased to 99% battery capacity increased by 3 times the maximum output power has increased dramatically. In addition, the use of new fuels such as ethanol and ethylene glycol solid polymer fuel cell PEFC and use of liquefied petroleum gas and dimethyl ether fuel to do both SOFC are also likely to be hot market solution.

The United Nations International Civil Aviation Organization ICAO decided that from January 1, 2007, the permit will be equipped with a flammable liquid such as methanol fuel tube onto the aircraft, it is apparent flow of the fuel cell market environment has also been a “care” . With the deep technical reserves and uncertain market environment, to meet the micro fuel cell for portable applications will no doubt be attractive applications in 2007, one of the best.

The Tenth National Conference on lead-acid batteries Minutes of Annual Meeting

China Electrotechnical Society of Professional Committee of lead-acid XPS M1530 Battery lead-acid batteries of the Tenth National Annual Meeting in 2006, 4 to 6 December at the beautiful Pearl River Delta Guangzhou to meet in Guangzhou. From lead-acid battery industry and related industries, manufacturers, universities and research institutes, a total of 110 units of 170 delegates attended the annual meeting.

Special committee chairman, Shenyang Institute of batteries in the same pairs of opening address for the General Assembly, the annual meeting of the co-units in Nanjing, the first Special Automation Equipment Co., Ltd. General Manager of the wise, and Chen Yong Guan, Zhongshan City, Guangdong Plastic Products Company Li Yuchen General Electric Engineering has a welcoming speech at the opening ceremony.

The opening ceremony, the special committee to the Secretary-General, Comrade Xu delegates made a “10 Annual Review and Prospect of the Future” report. The report first reviews the origin since the first annual meeting to annual meeting of the past to be found that the past 20 years in the previous annual meeting of the academic papers published in lead-acid battery industry in China witnessed the production technology and scientific research in progress In order to promote the industry has contributed to continued technological progress. The report also close to 10 years, special committees, held a greater impact on the industry technical progress of the training courses and workshops will be briefly reviewed, and learn in the future development of the work and the organization of work in 2007 did a more detailed description.

The annual meeting papers were received more than 50 articles, most of them read or talk about at the conference, papers covered a wide range, the electric bicycle with lead-acid battery grid alloy, cycle life, charging and use of maintenance improvement remains a focus of attention of the entire industry, which fully reflects the community’s growing demand for such products; for the traditional lead-acid battery production process (such as curing, chemical, etc.), deep-cycle life, charge acceptance ability and colloidal electrolyte and other improvements have deeper levels of experimental research; Shandong University Professor Hua-shou South VRLA battery discharge voltage change and the CDF the initial interpretation of the phenomenon and the use of prediction capacity of this phenomenon has aroused on behalf of the pilot study to explore their interest; South China Normal University and Zhuzhou Smelter Group oriented to provide multi-annual series of papers demonstrating their articles in theoretical and applied research results achieved in the field.

During the meeting, special committee chairman in the same pairs of facing the industry and lead prices XPS M1210 Battery soaring and the elimination of export tax rebate formed by the grim situation, in order to strive for a suspension of exports is not conducive to the industry policy of the hard process and the measures taken in response to the future a detailed description, and that the effect of various stages, and temporary.

Harbin Institute of Technology Professor Hu Xinguo / doctoral invited to speak at the annual meeting do a “power battery research and lead the market trend,” the special report, the report describes the progress of domestic power battery research and development that lead to “hybrid hot” The reason is that energy conservation and environmental protection needs, the world’s largest market for the future of the whole hybrid vehicle, as the auxiliary power lead-acid battery with its own unique advantages in this field, opportunities still exist.

Chemistry and Environment South China Normal University Dean Professor Chen Hongyu, in its special report in September this year in Athens, Greece held the tenth European Lead Battery Conference papers focus on comments made. It also introduced the foreign super-batteries and bipolar battery structure and progress of R & D applications, South China Normal University developed redox flow battery, the importance of Secondary Lead the development of its technology to improve the situation and so on.

All the representatives to participate with great enthusiasm from start to finish lasted a whole three days of papers and reports about the General Assembly proclaim that they displayed for some papers in experimental research results and related reports provide a wealth of information, meaningful suggestions and expectations of highly In order to further broaden their vision, understanding of the situation and update the idea of bringing some new revelation. Delegates generally agreed that in the face of serious “internal and external problems” and the nickel-metal hydride batteries, lithium-ion batteries and other new energy sources, faced with increasing competition, as long as we renew our thinking, keep up the situation, seize opportunities, committed to innovation, and give full play to lead-acid while the other has the battery’s own energy resources do not yet exist, such as low-cost, renewable resources, recycling, safety, reliability, advantages, then this piece spans three centuries old horse will continue to gallop in the energy of the battlefield. CHEN Hong-yu, as the President in his closing remarks invited report said, let us lead-acid XPS M140 Battery industry colleagues, promote the “long march spirit,” to overcome all difficulties and obstacles, to meet the lead-acid batteries brilliant tomorrow!
