Progress and major BARRIERS of nanocatalyst development in direct methanol fuel cell: A review

Direct methanol fuel cells (DMFC), among the most suited and prospective alternatives for portable electronics, have lately been treated with nanotechnology. DMFCs may be able to remedy the energy security issue by having low operating temperatures, high conversion efficiencies, and minimal emission levels. Though, slow reaction kinetics are a significant restriction of DMFC, lowering efficiency and energy output. Nowadays, research is more focused on fundamental studies that are studying the factors that can improve the capacity and activity of catalysts. In DMFC, among the most widely explored catalysts are platinum and ruthenium which are enhanced in nature by the presence of supporting materials such as nanocarbons and metal oxides. As a result, this research sheds light on nanocatalyst development for DMFCs based on Platinum noble metal. To summarize, this research focuses on the structure of nanocatalysts, as well as support materials for nanocatalysts that can be 3D, 2D, 1D, or 0D. The support material described is made up of CNT, CNF, and CNW, which are the most extensively used because they improve the performance of catalysts in DMFCs. In addition, cost estimations for fuel cell technology are emphasized to show the technology's status and requirements. Finally, challenges to nanocatalyst development have been recognized, as well as future prospects, as recommendations for more innovative future research.
