A major advantage of thispropulsion technology is reduction of greenhouse gas emissions when renewableenergy is used for fuels as hydrogen [Robinius, 2019]. Moreover, fluctuations inelectricity energy supply from renewable sources can be dampened when electricityis efficiently converted and stored as hydrogen.For the competitive application of this technology of fuel cell technology in the field ofvehicle propulsion, however, considerable research is still required in some areas. Inaddition to the necessary cost and weight reduction, this also applies to the long-termstability and robustness of fuel cell stack itself.It is known that fuel cell stacks react to the admixture of harmful gases into the intakecathode air with performance losses, which primarily result from the poisoning of thecatalysts. The effect does not only depend on the total burden of pollutants but on theirpeak concentrations. With this regard there is a need for research into both the effectsof pollutants on fuel stacks and their distribution in the atmosphere.The work presented here was funded by BMWi in the period from December 2014 toNovember 2017 and describes the results of the subproject 03ET6036D, which wascarried out by Forschungszentrum Jülich LB - PUB:(DE-HGF)3 UR - https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/894094 ER -
