Abstract
Since a fuel cell operating at room temperature uses platinum as catalysts and nafion as electrolyte membrane, its cost becomes high. If the fuel cell doesn't need to use nafion, platinum is also no needed. If ager is adopted for the electrolyte substituting the nafion, nickel can be used for the catalyst. In this work, the fuel cell using ager as a electrolyte was contracted and its performance test was carried out. The conditions to which electric power becomes the largest were the cases where electrode distance was 5mm and fuel concentration was 20wt%, as a result of the experiment. When the catalyst on the anode side was used nickel, electric power decreased by 30%, and when a catalyst was not used, it decreased by 45%.
