✦ Synopsis

Minnesota farm fuel cell uses biogas from manure

T he Haubenschild family's farm near Princeton, Minnesota is the first demonstration project in the world to run a hydrogen fuel cell from the biogas captured from dairy cows. For five years, the family has been operating an anaerobic digester to produce methane from manure for conversion into electricity. The anaerobic manure digester produces biogas, comprising methane, CO 2 , water vapor and trace gases. After gas cleaning, the biogas is converted to hydrogen, which is now fed to a 5 kWe PEM fuel cell system from Plug Power to generate electricity.

## Abstract The cell voltage and power performance of a microbial fuel cell utilising waste carbohydrate as a fuel, that does not use a mediator, catalysts or a proton exchange membrane, is reported. Tests were conducted with the cell operated essentially as a battery using manure sludge as fuel an
