The DMFC

The direct methanol fuel cell -DMFC is the only cell which is not using hydrogen but methanol for the eduction.

There are no reformers needed because the cell on its own converts methanol into hydrogen protons, free electrons and CO2. Because of the missing reformer it is best suited for the use in motorcars by coming closest to the ideal of an energy source as simple as possible.

A proton exchange membrane serves as electrolyte.
