"The basic power generation mechanism of the new system is similar to that of a normal fuel cell, which uses hydrogen as a fuel. According to Genepax, the main feature of the new system is that it uses the company’s membrane electrode assembly (MEA), which contains a material capable of breaking down water into hydrogen and oxygen through a chemical reaction( electrolysis ) .

Though the company did not reveal the details, it “succeeded in adopting a well-known process to produce hydrogen from water to the MEA,”

"With the new process, the cell needs only water and air, eliminating the need for a hydrogen reformer and high-pressure hydrogen tank. Moreover, the MEA requires no special catalysts, and the required amount of rare metals such as platinum is almost the same as that of existing systems, Genepax said."




Wait guys, I thought you said that this process is " Thermodynamically Impossible ". Or are your opinions different now that a company is about to mass produce?

:P
