Electr ooxidati on of etha nol using synthesized zeoli te modifi ed carbon paste electrode

Direct alcohol fuel cells (DA FCs), identified as an important power sou rce in applications ranging from portable electronic devices to fuel cell vehicles. Among various a lcohols, ethanol is considered most attractive, because it has less toxicity, higher energy density and boiling point relative to othe r alcohols, and can b e produced with great quantitie s by the fermentation of sugar containing raw materials [۱]. Zeolite-modified electrodes (ZM Es) from a sub-category of the so-called chemical ly modified electrodes (CME). Th e use of zeolites as supported electro des represents one of the solutions overco me the problem of catalytic oxidati on of ethan ol [۲].
