Rigid Wing

When a sailing ship which has large rigid wing sails such as the Wind Challenger Sail runs in a sufficiently windy sea, the thrust by sails is utilized to not only drive the ship at the proper speed but also to rotate an underwater turbine at significant speed and torque. The turbine generates electricity which is used for the electrolysis of water to generate hydrogen. The hydrogen is stored using toluene in the form of methylcyclohexane (MCH), which is in liquid form under normal temperature and pressure. MCH is stored in the ship's tank as hydrogen fuel. In the case of weak winds when the sails cannot generate sufficient thrust, using the hydrogen generated by the dehydrogenation device, the fuel cell works and supplies electricity to the electric motor propeller for the ship's propulsion. Thus, the ship can run at a constant speed regardless of wind speed and direction.

Due to the reality of ninety five percent dependency of energy-importing, the diversification of kinds and sources of fuel like crude oil is making crucial and environmental issues in Taiwan. Efficient and zero emission fuel cell is a promising power source and expected to play a major role in the future energy supply. According to the fuel cell roadmap of the Bureau of Energy, Taiwan Ministry of Economic Affairs, and the projected annual output will reach NTD 13,000 million in 2020, thus, a recognized specification and traceable metrology is necessary to maintain the product quality and trade equity once the market is emerged. In this paper, we review the current status of fuel cell development and standards in Taiwan and then propose a solid fuel cell metrology which can be traced to international standards.

This article focuses on production of a hydrogen fuel system for a DaimlerChrysler fuel cell minivan by Millennium Cell Inc., a developmental-stage company based in Eatontown. Millennium Cell’s hydrogen-on-demand system stores hydrogen in the form of sodium borohydride, a chemical whose chief use today is for bleaching paper. Mixed with water, the chemical makes a fuel that can be stored as a liquid in plastic vessels under ambient temperature and pressure. The mixture is neither flammable nor explosive. Millennium Cell continues its research. It is attempting to drive down catalyst costs. Improving catalyst durability is another constant challenge. The company continues making key changes in the packaging of its hydrogen-on-demand technology to reduce the space it occupies. As for Millennium Cell’s researchers, their desks filled with abundant technical challenges, they undoubtedly have plenty to do besides worrying about the future.
