Fuel cells harvest dissolved oxygen (DO) in water, and can be utilized by same performances to the cell in air within the rated power output. It is also found that fuel cells remove O2 from air and water in closed containers. In deoxidation, several methods, such as direct water supply, bubbling and artificial gill in DO water are studied. The ability of harvesting DO is discussed with relationships between electrical current and O2 flow rate.
