They're trying to, but so far they're still too complicated and expensive for everything but very special applications.

There are currently no Fuel Cell vehicles being sold to the public. Only prototypes have been built.
explain how fuel cells are commonly categorized
Ceramic Fuel Cells was created in 1992.
Ceramic Fuel Cells's population is 150.
no because hydrogen fuel cells are renewable
Benthic Microbial Fuel Cells are basically a microbial fuel cell. Instead of the anode being placed deep into sediment [MFC]- the anode is placed in a chamber where monitored amounts of neutrients/fresh water can enter and be controlled [BFMC]
fuel cells converts chemical energy to eletrical power and the only waste product for fuel cells is water
Some pros of fuel cells are that it is: -efficient -produces no odor, no noise -reliable -environmentally friendly -is indefinetely renewable, as long as hydrogen is harvested Some cons of fuel cells are: - fuel cells are expensive -you have to harvest hydrogen, which is hard -The volume of the fuel cells are larger than the average internal combustion engine.

The only byproduct of an oxygen and hydrogen fuel cell is water. There are other less common types of fuel cells, such as zinc and air cells, which do produce other byproducts.
Fuel cells are an important part of a nuclear reactor. The component that powers the nuclear reactor is the reactor core and the fuel cells are found inside and hold uranium dioxide.
