The reconfigured anode (RCA) system is a small modification to the backing cloth placed on the anode side of each MEA in a PEM fuel cell stack. A catalyst layer is placed on the gas feed side of the cloth, to catalyze oxidation of CO utilizing the oxygen introduced in a small air-bleed. The purpose is to achieve a high CO-tolerance at a temperature below 100 °C. The development and status of this technology are described. Investigation of catalyst systems based on inexpensive transition metal oxides continues.
