Advent Technologies, Alfa Laval to collaborate on project

Advent Technologies announced that it will collaborate with Alfa Laval, a global provider of heat transfer, separation, and fluid handling products, on a project to explore applications of Advent’s methanol-powered high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells in the marine industry. Funded by the Danish Energy Technology Development and Demonstration Program, or EUDP, the project is a joint effort between Advent, Alfa Laval and a group of Danish shipowners. The project will focus on testing Advent’s methanol-powered HT-PEM fuel cells as a source of marine auxiliary power. During the course of the project, the fuel cell system will undergo a risk assessment by a leading international classification society.
