Abstract:
Processes for field treatment of military fuels to make them suitable for fuel cells were studied. Task A was directed to the development of a process for removing components in jet fuel which are harmful to fuel cell performance. For direct hydrocarbon fuel cells, aromatics, naphthenes and sulfur affect activity. For indirect fuel cell systems, only sulfur is a problem. Task B was concerned with the feasibility of liquid phase reforming to generate hydrogen fuel.
