Workshop on Advanced PEM Fuel Cell Membranes and Membrane-Electrode Assemblies for Non-Conventional Fuels Held in Holiday Inn Boardwalk, Las Vegas, NV on April 28-May 1, 1998

Abstract

The workshop was organized to examine the problem of utilizing fuels alternative to neat hydrogen. Sponsors included the U.S. Army Research Office (ARO), the U.S. Office of Naval Research (ONR), and the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA). The Organizing Committee consisted of Professors Charles Martin and Darryl DesMarteau (Clemson University), Drs. Peter Fedkiw and Dick Paur (ARO), Dr. Richard Carlin (ONR) and Dr. Bob Nowak (DARPA). A group of 69 scientists and engineers from industry, academia and government laboratories were assembled at the Holiday Inn Boardwalk in Las Vegas, NV, April 28 - May 1, 1998. Their objective was to examine the state-of-the-art of current PEM fuel cell systems for alternate fuels, to identify the most important factors limiting the efficient use of these fuels, and to recommend the most promising directions for future research to overcome those limitations.
