Fuel cell
Carbon monoxide detector
Electrical equipment; Fuel cell
A carbon monoxide detector is a device that detects the presence of the toxic gas carbon monoxide (CO), a colourless and odourless compound produced by incomplete combustion and lethal at high ...
Catalyst
Electrical equipment; Fuel cell
A catalyst is a chemical substance that increases the rate of a reaction without being consumed; after the reaction it can potentially be recovered from the reaction mixture chemically unchanged.
Hydrodesulfurization (HDS)
Electrical equipment; Fuel cell
A catalytic chemical process widely used to remove sulphur (S) from natural gas and from refined petroleum products such as gasoline or petrol, jet fuel, kerosene, diesel fuel, and fuel oils.
Hydride ion
Electrical equipment; Fuel cell
Aside from electride, the hydride ion is the simplest possible anion, consisting of two electrons and a proton. See also hydrogen anion.
Electrochemical cell
Electrical equipment; Fuel cell
An electrochemical cell is a device used for generating an electromotive force (voltage) and current from chemical reactions.
Electrode
Electrical equipment; Fuel cell
An electrode is an electrical conductor used to make contact with a nonmetallic part of a circuit (e.g. A semiconductor, an electrolyte or a vacuum).
Electrolyte
Electrical equipment; Fuel cell
An electrolyte is any substance containing free ions that behaves as an electrically conductive medium.
