Title: Innovations by Andreas Schmitz

Introduction

Andreas Schmitz is a notable inventor based in Freiburg, Germany. He has made significant contributions to the field of fuel cell technology, holding a total of 3 patents. His work focuses on enhancing the efficiency and functionality of fuel cells through innovative methods and materials.

Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is a proton-conducting polymer membrane and method for the production thereof to simultaneously remove the catalyst layers. This invention relates to a proton-conducting polymer membrane and a method for its production. Starting from a catalyst layer, which is homogeneously deposited on the polymer membrane, the catalyst layer is subdivided into a number of catalyst segments by microstructuring. This allows adjacent fuel cell units of a planar fuel cell arrangement to be realized in the smallest possible space. Another significant patent is for a fuel cell system and method for regulating pressure in fuel cell systems. This invention involves a fuel cell system with a polyelectrolyte membrane fuel cell and a method by which the pressure inside the fuel cell can be regulated by means of the quantity of fuel introduced. This regulation is accomplished by pressure sensors controlled by an electronic control unit.
