UK closed-loop fuel cell component recycling is a step closer

摘要

Advanced techniques for recovering a high-value polymer from fuel cell membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) has brought closed-loop recycling of these components a step closer, according to Axion Consulting. The Manchester-based resource recovery specialist developed the process in the collaborative Recover research and development project with fuel cell components supplier Johnson Matthey Fuel Cells and non-woven materials manufacturer Technical Fibre Products. The project was co-funded by the UK's innovation agency, Innovate UK.
