Scientists Boost Battery, Fuel Cell Performance By Over 300%

Scientists Boost Battery, Fuel Cell Performance By Over 300% Authored by Neetika Walter via Interesting Engineering, Researchers in South Korea have developed a new catalyst design strategy that boosts the efficiency of reactions used in batteries and hydrogen fuel cells without changing the catalyst itself. New catalyst approach could improve fuel cells and batteries  (Representational image)Shutterstock The team, led by Professor Seung Jun Hwang of POSTECH and Professor Jaeyune Ryu of Seoul National University, found that adjusting the electrical environment around a catalyst can significantly improve its performance. The approach could help reduce...
