Scope of the Report

Reformed Methanol Fuel Cell (RMFC) or Indirect Methanol Fuel Cell (IMFC) systems are a subcategory of proton-exchange fuel cells where, the fuel, methanol (CH3OH), is reformed, before being fed into the fuel cell.

RMFC systems offer advantages over direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) systems including higher efficiency, smaller cell stacks, less requirement on methanol purity, no water management, better operation at low temperatures, and storage at sub-zero temperatures because methanol is a liquid from -97.0 °C to 64.7 °C (-142.6 °F to 148.5 °F) and as there is no liquid methanol-water mixture in the cells which can destroy the membrane of DMFC in case of frost.

RMFC systems consist of a fuel processing system (FPS), a fuel cell, a fuel cartridge, and the BOP (the balance of plant).

This report presents a comprehensive overview of the global Reformed Methanol Fuel Cell (RMFC) market, covering market size and forecast, segmentation by product type and application, competitive landscape, leading players and regional and country-level outlook.
