    Current research project involves investigating the possibly of the portable application of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), using hydrogen generation by hydrolysis of solid sodium borohydride (NaBH4) in semi-continuous reactor with Hydrochloric acid as an accelerator. Further exploration of reactor design, conversion efficiency using a wicking agent verses no wicking agent to facilitate mass transfer, and Hydrogen Yield are discussed. Additionally, in this study an integrated device as a whole is explored, by hooking up the reactor to an altered Commercial Fuel Cell from Thames and Kosmos and obtaining power density curves and current-voltage curves.
