　　报告摘要：

　　Report I: It will be reported about the development of novel cell components for a medium temperature (100-150°C) DMFC, with improved kinetics of methanol oxidation reaction at high operating temperature and uncompressed cathode air.Further advantages of MT-DMFC include: simplified water management, effective stack cooling against ambient temperature, and catalysts shows high tolerance to pollutants. Novel membrane materials will be discussed based on microphase-separated block co-polymers, where thhydrophilic phase takes over the H+transport and the hydrophobic phase provides mechanical stability.New C-supported PtAu, PtPd, PtCrbimetalic catalysts for the cathode and unsupported PtRu& Au @ Pt catalysts for anode or cathode will be also discussed. MEA and stack issues will be introduced as well.

　　Report II: It will be reported about the development of a 5 kW HT-PEMFC working at 160-180°C with a phosphoric acid doped PBI membrane. The fuel is used a reformate with 32% H₂ and 1% CO. In detail, it will be discussed as the followed topics: i) General setup, including stack design, adaption to the application, system connection, assembly of repeating units; ii) Sizing, including scale-up in terms of active cell area and number of cells, limits due to flow distribution, additional losses; iii) Components, including variety of materials available, check, if they meet technical and cost requirements; iv) Concepts, including several alternatives for clamping, flow distribution and heat management available.
