FLINT, Mich., May 12, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GEI Global Energy Corp. (OTCBB:GEIG), a Nevada based company, announced that the Company has completed critical testing for its high capacity steam reforming technology for fuel processing coupled with its high temperature PEM fuel cell stack. Steam generation is the most energy expensive resource required for fuel processing. Typically, energy required for steam reforming of fuels such as natural gas and bio fuels, is provided by a combustor that burns fuel for generating low-temperature saturated steam which reduce the overall system efficiency.
The GEI GLOBAL technology does not use fuel for this critical energy resource. Rather our technology leverages the high heat capacity of the oil based heat rejection medium for the high temperature PEM (HTPEM) fuel cell stack to generate saturated steam resulting in significant fuel savings. For every gram/sec of combustion fuel provided for fuel reforming; approximately 72% is required for generating saturated steam. As such, the GEI Global technology increases the overall steam reforming efficiency to over 90%+ by re-claiming the HTPEM fuel cell stack excess heat through an oil based high capacity cooling medium. Additionally, the high capacity fuel cell stack cooling medium provides unparalleled performance for combined heat and power (CHP) applications.
