  • Patent number: 7431818
    Abstract: A fuel system for an energy conversion device includes a deoxygenator system with an electrochemical conversion system to remove oxygen from fuel through conversion of the oxygen to water. The electrochemical conversion system is located within a fuel flow. On the fuel side ½O2+2H++2e?=>H2O while on the reverse side the opposite reaction occurs. From the electrochemical conversion system the water is then collected and/or expelled from the system.
