CHICAGO, IL (November 15, 2007) – American Science and Technology (AST) is
proud to present its innovative High-Temperature PEM Fuel Cell system (HTPEMFC),
designed and developed by a team of scientists and engineers from AST, Chicago
State University (CSU), and EnerFuel Inc.
This event will take place on Friday, November 30, from 2-3 PM, at the Center
for Alternative Energy Technology, located at 9551 South Cottage Grove (CSU
incubator building), just east of the Chicago State University Campus. During
this presentation, AST will present the system’s top level design, control, and
demonstrate the system’s performance.
Registration is required for attendance. Please email your name, contact
information, company affiliation, and your US citizenship status to

This HTPEMFC has demonstrated the capability of producing at least 50% more
power than its conventional PEM counterparts. The developed technology has been
part of both AST's and CAET's attempt to increase the conventional fuel cell’s
power-to-weight density. The HTPEMFC has been developed to eventually power
small DOD robotics ground or aerial vehicles. By replacing conventional power
supply systems with HTPEMFC for unmanned systems, the potentials for enhanced
mission capabilities, efficiency, and ultimately, cost-savings for the DOD in
war against terrorism can be achieved.
