Abstract

In this chapter, fuel cell technology and membranes for green energy generation are discussed. The demand for more sustainable and green fuel technologies is on the rise by the day. With countries setting regulations against carbon dioxide emissions and coal utilization policies, no option is left but to direct research efforts toward green energy production. In that case, the production of energy from fuel cells seems to be a promising technology. This chapter features the various types of green membrane fuel cells and technology. It also presents specific types of fuel cells that can be fed with green fuels and promise to provide a cleaner future. These types include hydrogen fuel cells, microbial fuel cells, enzymatic fuel cells, and alcoholic fuel cells. The challenges associated with not only green energy production but even technological hurdles in the industry are presented. This chapter concludes that despite the challenges, green membrane technology toward a sustainable future remains promising.
