: A Transforming society towards sustainable industrial practices and products chooses to implement “Green nanomaterial”, with high energy efficiency, minimizing the damage to the environment and exploitation of non-renewable energy resources. A combined overview of recent developments in green nanostructured fuel cells with enhanced durability and activity is presented in this review along with the advancements of green Nano materials in the area of corrosion inhibition. Fuel cells being the next generation ecofriendly energy source, the modification to the solid oxide, microbial and alkaline fuel cell through green nanomaterial are discussed with an emphasis on electrodes, electrolyte, electrode catalysts and membrane components. In addition, the role of green nanomaterial in the form of nano metal oxides, hydroxides, grains, dendrimers, gels, composites, functionalized graphene, halloysite nanotubes and ionic liquids in greening the phenomenon of corrosion inhibition, investigated by various researchers is briefly addressed. As no single engineered green nanomaterial is emerging as unparalleled and most viable, they are evaluated according to their economic impact, diverse properties, durability and stability. Eventually, these materials with improvement in biocompatibility, solubility, fabrication and handling techniques are predicted to change the environmental and occupational scenario, with some of them already have been found to impact upon the altering global energy needs.

Recent Developments

This review summarizes the current status, operating principles, and recent advances in high-temperature polymer electrolyte membranes (HT-PEMs), with a particular focus on the recent developments, technical challenges, and commercial prospects of the HT-PEM fuel cells. A detailed review of the most recent research activities has been covered by this work, with a major focus on the state-of-the-art concepts describing the proton conductivity and degradation mechanisms of HT-PEMs. In addition, the fuel cell performance and the lifetime of HT-PEM fuel cells as a function of operating conditions have been discussed. In addition, the review highlights the important outcomes found in the recent literature about the HT-PEM fuel cell. The main objectives of this review paper are as follows: (1) the latest development of the HT-PEMs, primarily based on polybenzimidazole membranes and (2) the latest development of the fuel cell performance and the lifetime of the HT-PEMs.

Metabolic Activities

A new bioelectrochemical approach based on metabolic activities inoculated bacteria, and the microbial fuel cell (MFC) acts as biocatalysts for the natural conversion to energy of organic substrates. Among several factors, the organic substrate is the most critical challenge in MFC, which requires long-term stability. The utilization of unstable organic substrate directly affects the MFC performance, such as low energy generation. Similarly, the interaction and effect of the electrode with organic substrate are well discussed. The electrode-bacterial interaction is also another aspect after organic substrate in order to ensure the MFC performance. The conclusion is based on this literature view; the electrode content is also a significant challenge for MFCs with organic substrates in realistic applications. The current review discusses several commercial aspects of MFCs and their potential prospects. A durable organic substrate with an efficient electron transfer medium (anode electrode) is the modern necessity for this approach.

Commercial Applications

Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) has several non-replaceable advantages over the others, e.g. the issues of high volumetric power density and low cost. Those advantages have been appreciated in recent developments, and implemented in several micro-SOFC devices conducted by several international projects. ONEBAT System by ETH (with 4 other groups) in Switzerland, micro-tubular SOFC by AIST in Japan, micro-honeycomb fuel cell (FC) by Professor Ishihara at Kyushu University will be reviewed in this report. Some micro-devices have been built on Si-chip, or in associated with the accessory parts, such as fuel reformer, electric power collector, or micro-turbine. Those have demonstrated important technology breakthrough and also shown the potential for commercial applications. This report will also discuss two important issues, including gas transport limitation in small gaps and glass sealing for the practical applications of Micro-SOFCs.
