The N - FCH Systems Laboratory focuses on the integration of fuel cells (mobile applications) and
water electrolysers (stationary applications) into power systems.

The latest experiments from Strasser's research group indicate that substantial increases in efficiency may also be possible for the reaction splitting
water to produce oxygen in
electrolysers, for which the even more expensive noble metal iridium is used.
It will focus on catalyst development for four applications: proton exchange membrane fuel cells to convert stored energy in non-fossil fuels into electricity;
electrolysers for splitting
water into oxygen and hydrogen — a potential clean fuel cell source; syngas, a mixture of CO and H2, which is generated from coal, gas and biomass, and widely used as a key intermediate in the chemical industry; and lithium - air batteries.
Water might be obtained from any source so long as it is or can be made pure enough to be placed in the
electrolyser.
The condensed
water is passed into an
electrolyser where an electric current splits the
water into hydrogen and oxygen.
For long high speed trips the engine would be at full power max efficiency with exhaust capable of heating solid oxide
electrolyser cell producing h2 and O per electric and
water.
Excess wind energy powers an
electrolyser which separates hydrogen and oxygen molecules that make
water (hence H2O).
