Abstract
As global energy demand increases dramatically, the fossil energy system dominated by coal, oil, and natural gas has limited its wider application due to its high pollution and high carbon emission drawbacks. Alternative and clean new energy systems are being developed worldwide. DBFCs, as an outstanding class of PEMFCs, are gaining more and more enthusiasm from scholars for their potential in energy applications.
Keywords:DBFC; PEMFC; NaBH4; Electrochemical oxidation; Fuel cell
