CellTech Power Overview

Edit Overview

CellTech’s fuel cells operate directly on readily available fuels such as diesel, JP-8 and coal. Our technology enables all of the benefits of fuel cells without waiting for the future “hydrogen economy”. Our systems are simpler because there is no need for a reformer or complex storage system. High efficiency translates into longer runtime and less fuel that needs to be carried.

Name:LTA-SOFC Technology
Product URL:http://www.celltechpower.com/technology.htm
Description:The Liquid Tin Anode Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (LTA-SOFC) is a game-changing fuel cell technology. It combines the efficiency and reliability of conventional SOFC while simplifying the system and dramatically expanding the range of fuels which can be used. Our technology has several independent capabilities, each of which is unique and substantial in its own right.

1. LTA-SOFC stacks produce electricity directly from many useful fuels. We have operated stacks directly on JP-8, diesel, coal, natural gas and plastic as well as specialty fuels such as hydrogen. No other fuel cell stack has demonstrated this capability. As a result, systems using our technology are simpler:

• No reformer or pre-reformer
• No shift reactor or purifier
• Increased system efficiency from direct fuel utilization
• Ability to use coal, plastic and bio-mass without a gasifier

2. Sulfur, which is present in JP-8, gasoline, diesel and natural gas is not a poison to our cells. In fact, sulfur is utilized as a fuel by our cell.

3. Our anode stores chemical energy, allowing our fuel cell to operate as if it has an integral rechargeable battery. This means that systems using our technology can reduce or eliminate batteries that are typically used for peaking power. Also, system control complexity is greatly reduced because precise control of air/fuel ratio is no longer required to maintain system stability.

CellTech has built and tested cells, stacks and systems to validate our unique capabilities. To our knowledge, none of our direct competitors have tested their technology in a system environment as we have.
