The hydrogen generating apparatus can include an electrolyte bath configured to contain an electrolyte solution, an anode placed inside the electrolyte bath and configured to generate electrons, a cathode placed inside the electrolyte bath and configured to receive the electrons from the anode to generate hydrogen, a condensation plate disposed on a transfer path of the hydrogen such that moisture carried in the hydrogen is condensed and the hydrogen is separated, and a heat exchanger configured to cool down the condensation plate heated by the moisture carried in the hydrogen. The hydrogen generating apparatus of the present invention can increase the efficiency of hydrogen generation by removing the moisture carried in the hydrogen while generating the hydrogen and reusing the moisture circulated through the electrolyte solution.

摘要： A cell unit for a fuel cell can include an electrolyte membrane, an electrode unit that includes an anode formed on one side of the electrolyte membrane and a cathode formed on the other side of the electrolyte membrane, and a porous current collector formed by coating a conductive material onto the porous surfaces of the electrode unit. It can be possible to reduce the contact resistance between the electrodes (the anode and the cathode), and their respective current collector, to thereby increase current collection efficiency and it can also be possible to make the thickness of the end plates thinner than a conventional design without sacrificing performance, to thereby decrease the overall size of a fuel cell.

摘要： A fuel cell is disclosed. The fuel cell can include a membrane electrode assembly (MEA), converting a chemical energy to an electrical energy; a first end plate, stacked on one surface of the MEA and formed with a first coupling hole; a second end plate, stacked on the other surface of the MEA; and a protrusion, formed on the second end plate such that the protrusion penetrates the first coupling hole and an end part of the protrusion protrudes a surface of the first end plate, and the end part being transformed such that the end part couples the first end plate and the second end plate. With the present invention, the fuel cell can reduce contact resistance between elements and its overall size and prevent a leak of fuel. In the manufacturing process, the end plates and the MEA can be arranged, improving reproducibility and repetition for mass production.

摘要： Disclosed herein are a binder composition for manufacturing an electrode of an energy storage device and a method for manufacturing an electrode of an energy storage device. The binder composition includes galactomannan as a major component and may exhibit sufficient binding force with a considerably small amount, as compared to binders in the related art. When the binder composition disclosed herein is used to manufacture an energy storage device having the same weight as that manufactured using the binder in the related art, the energy storage device may contain a greater amount of active material, compared to the binder in the related art. Consequently, beneficial effects such as improvement in an energy density as well as eco-friendly characteristics may be rendered.
