摘要： Improved feedstocks for hydrogen-producing fuel processing and fuel cell systems, and fuel processing and fuel cell systems incorporating the same. The fuel processing systems include a fuel processor adapted to produce a product hydrogen stream from at least one feed stream containing at least a carbon-containing feedstock and an aversive agent. The fuel processing systems may also include a fuel cell stack adapted to produce an electric current from the product hydrogen stream. The feedstock is at least substantially formed of a hydrocarbon or alcohol. In some instances the feedstock includes methanol and the aversive agent is delivered to a hydrogen-producing region of the fuel processor with the carbon containing feedstock. The aversive agent can include at least one odorant, flavorants regurgitant, and/or dye. In other instances, the feed stream includes water or the feed stream is delivered to a fuel stack that produces and electric current therefrom.

摘要： A system and method for preventing damage to a fuel cell stack resulting from impurities in a hydrogen stream delivered thereto. In some embodiments, the hydrogen stream is a product hydrogen stream from a fuel processor. In some embodiments, the impurities may result from a failure or malfunction in a separation region adapted to remove impurities in the hydrogen stream. The system and method include detecting the concentration of at least one component of the hydrogen stream and isolating the fuel cell stack should this concentration exceed an acceptable threshold level. In some embodiments, the system or method are adapted to detect the concentration of a component that itself is not harmful to the fuel cell stack, or which is not harmful in an associated threshold concentration. In some embodiments, the detected composition is at least one of water, methane, and carbon dioxide.

摘要： Hydrogen purification membranes, hydrogen purification devices, and fuel processing and fuel cell systems that include hydrogen purification devices. The hydrogen purification membranes include a metal membrane, which is at least substantially comprised of palladium or a palladium alloy. In some embodiments, the membrane contains trace amounts of carbon, silicon, and/or oxygen. In some embodiments, the membranes form part of a hydrogen purification device that includes an enclosure containing a separation assembly, which is adapted to receive a mixed gas stream containing hydrogen gas and to produce a stream that contains pure or at least substantially pure hydrogen gas therefrom. In some embodiments, the membrane(s) and/or purification device forms a portion of a fuel processor, and in some embodiments, the membrane(s) and/or purification device forms a portion of a fuel processing or fuel cell system.
