Record 1, Textual support, English
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 DEF
A type of acid-based fuel cell in which the exchange of protons (H+) from the anode to the cathode is achieved by a solid, water-swollen membrane electrolyte impregnated with a strong acid. 6, record 1, English, - proton%20exchange%20membrane%20fuel%20cell
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
A PEM (Proton E xchange Membrane, also called Polymer Electrolyte Membrane) fuel cell uses a simple chemical process to combine hydrogen and oxygen into water, producing electric current in the process. For those interested in the chemistry, it works something like electrolysis in reverse. 4, record 1, English, - proton%20exchange%20membrane%20fuel%20cell
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
[These] fuel cells typically run at low temperatures (<100ºC) and pressures (<5 atm). 6, record 1, English, - proton%20exchange%20membrane%20fuel%20cell
