Abstract

A fuel cell comprising an ionically conductive membrane with an electrode. The electrode is disposed adjacent the ionically conductive membrane and an electrically conductive member is disposed adjacent the electrode. The fuel cell further comprises a group of catalyzed particles that is capable of catalyzing a gas phase oxidation reaction and an electrochemical oxidation reaction. The catalyzed particles are disposed on at least one of the electrode and electrically conductive member.
