Abstract
A fuel cell system having one or more sensors is disclosed. The sensor(s) can detect the difference in the content of a gas (e.g., hydrogen) in an inlet stream and an outlet stream of the fuel cell system. The sensors can provide a signal to a controller that regulates the flow of the detected gas in the inlet stream.
