Abstract
The alkaline fuel cell is known as the “bacon” fuel cell. It generates electricity through the chemical reaction without the emission of greenhouse gases. This will allow it to replace fossil fuels in the future. It produced only the water for the final product. It operates at a temperature of 25˚C to 250˚C, which is relatively low compared to the internal combustion engines. It has wide application in the modern industry. This is due to the system’s high efficiency, reaching up to 60%. However, the alkaline fuel cell has several disadvantages, which affect to popularize. This paper contains a review of alkaline fuel cells, an extensive study of the components that make up the fuel cells, as well as the future applications and challenges of fuel cells. A comparison of alkaline fuel cells and other types of fuel cells has also been discussed in the paper. In addition to the research paper, future trends and forecasts will also be able to accurately predict the viability of implementing this technology in the near future.
