Alternative Energy Solutions

Mott works with multiple fuel cell manufacturers to achieve optimal mass transfer, ohmic resistance, and activation polarization from their gas diffusion layers.  We customize our porous metal sheet to various thicknesses and porosity to deliver the best results in terms of permeability and conductivity.  Titanium is available for typical fuel cell applications.  430 stainless steel and nickel 200 are available for solid oxide fuel cells.  Specialty alloys, such as niobium and zirconium, can be used for aerospace applications.

Ultra-thin, porous sheet for optimal mass transport in hydrogen generation.  Mott is the only company in the world capable of manufacturing porous metal sheet down to .007” thickness, resulting in the best mass transport of any gas diffusion layer (GDL) on the market.  Porous metal sheet can be customized for porosity and rigid contact surface to achieve optimal permeability and conductivity for your application. Titanium is standard for most applications, though various other alloys and specialty blends are available upon request.

Mott offers gas process filters for filtration of high-temperature gasification processes. Companies that generate energy from hot gas rely on filter elements designed with Mott porous metal to improve the longevity of their filters and reduce maintenance costs – simply because porous metal can withstand temperatures up to 1700° Fahrenheit.  Mott GSV filters also  simplify operations because they enable on-line cleaning, meaning that while the filter operates, elements are cleaned in sections through a gas-assisted pulse, so there’s no need to take the filter offline for maintenance.

We provide a wide range of filtration solutions used in the process of hydrogen production.  Our absolute pleated filters are used to protect and prevent solid contamination in high purity water.  These AFP Series filters offer high filtration area, high flow rates and high dirt holding capacity.
