A fuel cell assembly (1) is disclosed. The fuel cell assembly (1) has a fuel cell stack (2) formed by laminating a plurality of cells; plus and minus current extraction sections (4), the current extraction sections (4) extracting current generated by the fuel cell stack and sandwiching the fuel cell stack with respect to the direction of lamination; and a passage (4a) allowing flow of a fluid provided in at least one of the current extraction sections. Further a fuel cell system, which has the above fuel cell stack and a heating device (24, 26, 32, 90) for heating the passage for the fluid, is disclosed.

There is provided a method for controlling the quality of a product, characterized in that a product and an oxygen detecting agent having a predetermined sensitivity corresponding to the kind of the product and quality control conditions for the product are provided in combination and the quality of the product is controlled by taking advantage of such a phenomenon that, when a predetermined period of time corresponding to the kind of the product and the quality control conditions for the product has elapsed, the oxygen detecting agent undergoes a change in color as a result of the detection of the concentration of oxygen, which has infiltrated the oxygen detecting agent, by the oxygen detecting agent. There is also provided an oxygen detecting agent characterized by comprising an oxygen detecting agent body and a film that hermetically covers said body and has a predetermined oxygen permeability and/or carbon dioxide permeability corresponding to the kind of a product, of which the quality is to be controlled, and the quality control conditions for the product.

A fuel vapor treatment or recovery system for an automotive internal combustion engine. The system comprises a canister containing a fuel vapor adsorbing material. A membrane separation module is provided to be connected to the canister and including a separation membrane for separating a mixture gas into an air-rich component and a fuel vapor-rich component. The separation membrane has an air-selective permeability so that the air-rich component is be able to pass through the separation membrane, the mixture gas containing air and fuel vapor. Additionally, a gas transporting device is provided to be connected to the canister, for causing purge gas to be introduced into the canister to purge fuel vapor from the fuel vapor adsorbing material and causing fuel vapor purged from the canister to be fed to the membrane separation module. Here, the fuel vapor-rich component is fed to an intake air passageway of an engine so that vacuum generated by the engine acts on the separation membrane so as to serve as a driving force for membrane separation. Further, the air-rich component from the membrane separation module is returned to the fuel tank so that fuel vapor component contained in the fuel vapor-rich component is recovered to the fuel tank upon being subjected to at least one of liquefaction and absorption to liquid fuel in the fuel tank.

摘要:
A gas diffusion layer (6) is sandwiched between catalyst electrode layers (5) and separators (1, 2), and side faces (6A, 6B) of the gas diffusion layer (6) are arranged so as to face a gas inlet manifold (7) and outlet manifold (8), and partition the inlet manifold (7) and outlet manifold (8). In the gas diffusion layer (6), gas flows from the side face (6A) facing the inlet manifold (7), flows through the interior, and flows out from the side face (6B) facing the outlet manifold (8).
