Description: Das Projekt "Fuel Cell based on-board Power Generation (FCGEN)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz e.V. & Co. KG durchgeführt. For truck applications the increasing demand for electrical power when the vehicle stands still has Iead to an increasing need for an onboard electric power generator which operates with high efficiency and very bw emissions. A fuel cell based auxiliary power unit (APU), with a diesel fuel processor is regarded as one of the most interesting options since it combines high efficiency, bw emissions and the use of the same fuel as the main engine. The overall objectives of FCGEN are to devebop and demonstrate a proof-of-concept complete fuel cell auxiliary power unit in a real application, onboard a truck. The APU system consisting of a bow-temperature PEM fuel cell, a diesel fuel processor and necessary balance of plant components will be designed to meet automotive requirements regarding e.g. size, mechanical tolerances, durability etc. High targets are set for energy efficiency and therefore this will significantly lead to emissions reductions and greener transport solutions in line with EU targets. A key point in the project is the devebopment of a fuel processing System that can handle bogistic fuels. A fuel processor consisting of autothermal reformer, desuiphurization unit, water-gas-shift reactor, reactor for the preferential oxidation of CO, will be deveboped. The fuel processor will be deveboped for and tested on standard available bw sulphur diesel fuel both for the Europeari anci US fuel qualities. Another key point is the devebopment of an efficient and reliable control system for the APU, integrated with the truck systems, including both hardware and software modules. In the final demonstration, the fuel cell based APU will be tested on a truck as the first step in a defined plan towards full scale field tests.
