DMFCC announces order from Lynntech

News Image

VIASPACE Inc, announced on Monday that its Direct Methanol Fuel Cell Corporation (DMFCC) subsidiary has received an order from Lynntech Inc. of College Station, TX to design and produce formic acid fuel cell cartridges.

CEO of VIASPACE and DMFCC, Dr. Carl Kukkonen, stated their team will design the fuel cell cartridge, pouch, and valve for a formic acid fuel cell, which will involve selection and testing of new materials suited to formic acid. This work is under a U.S. Army development contract in which the Army plans to use Lynntech's fuel cell combined with technology developed at Vanderbilt University to create a fuel cell system that has a minimum of moving parts and support structure to produce the complete power supply. The Army hopes that this combination will lead to a lightweight, rugged, reliable power supply suitable for use with either one time use disposable cartridges or bulk fuel.
