Abstract
A secondary battery recombination system includes catalyst and hydrophobic gas diffusion layers defining an electrode that recombines hydrogen and oxygen into water, and a scaffold encapsulating and in non-bonded contact with the electrode. The electrode may be carbon cloth, carbon felt, carbon foam, or carbon paper. The scaffold may be expanded metal or perforated foil.
