A catalytic method for removing trace amounts of carbon monoxide from hydrogen gas streams. Previously limited to high-temperature operation with strict temperature ranges.

A novel catalyst structure developed by USTC researchers that enables CO removal across a wide temperature range. Provides protection against CO poisoning during continuous fuel cell operation and cold-starts.

Electrochemical devices that convert hydrogen and oxygen into electricity to power electric motors in aircraft.
