Development of a sensor array for pollutant gas adsorbing cathode air filter systems within the framework of German-Chinese cooperation

The protection of fuel cells against aging due to airborne contaminants requires the adsorption of harmful gases by cathode air filters matched to the application. Due to the locally highly variable pollutant gas concentrations, prediction of filter lifetime is difficult. The development of a breakthrough sensor array, which indicates the breakthrough of pollutant gases, is intended to enable predictive maintenance.
