Research and Development of Metal-Air Fuel Cells

Metal-air fuel cells (MAFCs) are a kind of electrochemical devices that can directly convert the chemical energy stored in metals fuels (e.g., Mg, Al or Zn) or their alloys into electricity. Strictly, MAFCs and metal-air batteries are different, that is, the former one can continue to produce electricity by the metal fuels replacement, and the latter one is only one-time use.
