Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An electrically powered vehicle includes a fuel cell with a decomposition reactor for decomposing sodium chlorate (NaClO 3 ). Reaction products produced by the decomposition reactor include oxygen and sodium chloride (NaCl). Gaseous hydrogen is stored onboard the vehicle, such as in a hydrogen tank at a low pressure, using metal hydrides. The hydrogen from the hydrogen tank and the oxygen produced by the decomposition reactor are consumed by the fuel cell in order to produce electricity. The vehicle further includes a storage tank for storing the NaCl produced by decomposition of the NaClO 3 .
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An electrically powered automobile, comprising: at least one electric motor structured to act on at least one device for causing forward progression of the automobile; a fuel cell; a hydrogen supply system for supplying hydrogen to the fuel cell; a hydrogen filling conduit for transferring hydrogen received from an external fueling system to the hydrogen supply system; a pure oxygen supply system onboard the automobile, the pure oxygen supply s…
