dc.descriptionThis chapter describes the reactions occurring in low-temperature fuel cells, fuelled with from the most common H2, to several organic molecules. The differences in the complexity of the anode reactions and their effect on the energy that may be generated from the fuel cells are discussed. It is established that, even though H2/O2 fuel cells are the most performing in terms of power density for largedemand systems, the use of liquid fuels is advantageous for several low-power applications. The performance of nanostructured anode and cathode catalysts in complete fuel cell systems is also covered. It is indicated that in alkaline media, some non-Pt nanocatalysts have a high catalytic activity, particularly for the ORR. Even more, the recent advances in polymer electrolyte membranes are shown, from the widely used commercial Nafion®, to the more recently developed anionic polymers for anion exchange membrane fuel cells. It is concluded that compatibility of composite and blend materials with the host ionomer is critical for the development of stable low-temperature fuel cells.en
