Abstract
The noble metal electrodes used in fuel cells have many active sites in addition to the zero valent states. The other metals added like Ru have other roles to play in addition to removing the poisoning effects due to intermediate CO in the oxidation of methanol. The advantages of using formaldehyde for reduction of noble metal ions in relation to hydrogen reduction method are also given.
