The ASME 2010 8th International Fuel Cell Science, Engineering & Technology Conference is designed for manufacturers of fuel cells and fuel cell components, utility staff and decision makers, the fuel cell research community, the business and investment community, educators and students with the goals to (1) exchange information, experiences, and insights from research to application, (2) provide a forum for discussion on advances, (3) identify barriers to accelerate the technology development, and (4) further stimulate research and development activity in the emerging field of fuel cell systems and components for stationary, mobile and portable power applications.

Call for Papers
Researchers (universities, national laboratories, industrial, and non-profit research institutes), technologists, users, manufacturers, designers, regulators, contractors, energy companies, utilities, and third-party providers are invited to submit abstracts. Papers from industrial authors are encouraged and welcomed. Abstracts should clearly state the objectives, results and conclusions and are not to exceed 400 words.

Presentation formats include poster presentations with a technical paper; poster presentations without a technical paper; oral presentations with a technical paper; and a limited number of oral presentations without a technical paper. All technical papers will be peer reviewed for inclusion in the conference proceedings. A limited number of technical papers identified by the reviewers will be considered for archival publication in the ASME Journal of Fuel Cell Science and Technology in addition to presentation and publication in the conference proceedings.

The conference will focus on transportation systems, stationary systems, and specialized systems (for wireless technology, APUs, UUVs, micro-miniature devices, hydrogen recovery, etc.) and will include all types of high-temperature and low-temperature fuel cells. Topics of interest will include, but are not limited to:

• Track 1 Low Temperature Fuel Cell Technologies
• Track 2 High Temperature Fuel Cell Technologies
• Track 3 Modeling, Design, and Optimization for Low Temperature Fuel Cells - I
• Track 4 Modeling, Design, and Optimization for Low Temperature Fuel Cells - II
• Track 5 Modeling, Design, and Optimization for High Temperature Fuel Cells - I
• Track 6 Modeling, Design, and Optimization for High Temperature Fuel Cells - II
• Track 7 Materials for Low Temperature Fuel Cells
• Track 8 Materials for High Temperature Fuel Cells
• Track 9 Production and Scale-up for Fuel Cell Technologies
• Track 10 Fuels and Infrastructure
• Track 11 Markets, Applications, and Policy Issues
• Track 12 Posters
• Track 13 Plenaries

POSTER PRESENTATIONS:
