Fuel Cells Bulletin 9 and a backing on the cathode side that builds up counter-pressure to the flow of water to allow less water through.

The new design allows the use of highly concentrated methanol solutions, or even pure methanol, in the fuel cell. 'Highly concentrated methanol or pure methanol is preferred for portable power applications, because very dilute methanol solutions require large amounts of water to be carried in the fuel tank, which drastically reduces the energy density of the system,' says Wang.
