Fuel cells offer a clean and highly efficient way to convert the chemical energy in fuels directly into electrical energy. When hydrogen is used as fuel, their only waste product is water. Fuel cells that run on gasoline, however, tend to build up carbon within the cell, stopping the conversion reaction. Gray, Steven R.
