甲醇重組式的燃料電池通常含有四個部件，分別為燃料電池、蒸散器、重組器及燃燒器。在此實驗中我們將會針對燃燒器的部分進行研究。
在本實驗中，微型晶片燃燒器使用2*2 cm矽晶片及boron float玻璃，藉由陽極接合將玻璃與晶片接合形成微型燃燒器，燃燒器使用Pt/Al2O3當作觸媒，觸媒加入DI water並使用幫浦灌入流道中。在流道部份，此實驗將會對流道進行一些處理，在灌觸媒前流道會用硫酸做親水處理，灌完後會將流道離心，比較其差異選擇塗佈較均勻的作為GC測試時所使用的流道。在GC測試部分會通入不同大小流量的氫氣及在相同的氫氣條件下，通入不同的氧氣比例，來測試此類型的反應器在何種進氣比例的情況下表現較好。最後我們將會使用有硫酸處理即有離心處理的流道來進行GC測試且進氣比例以當量為0.7的條件下表現最佳，在通入50sccm的氫氣下，氫氣轉換率達到96%，溫度達到170度。
在銅製作流道的燃燒器部分，選用鎳金屬網當作觸媒附著的載體，並以PVA當作黏著劑，並以沾附承載的方式，將觸媒乘載在載體上，利用不同濃度的觸媒水溶液製作出不同濃度的觸媒鎳網，分別為0.5wt%、1wt%及2wt%，並藉由其組合尋找最佳搭配，發現將0.5wt%、1wt%及2wt%，依濃度由進口至出口擺放的效果最佳，可以在25分鐘內達到平衡且轉換率達98%。

In a methanol reformer type fuel cell, there are four major components including a fuel cell, a reformer, an evaporator, and a combustor. In this study, we will focus on the combustor.
The micro-chip combustor is composed of 2cm*2cm silicon wafer and boron float glass. The silicon wafer and glass are combined by the anode bonding to become a micro hydrogen combustor. Pt/Al2O3 is used to be the catalyst of this combustor. The catalyst is mixed with the DI water, as a kind of slurry,which pumped into the channel and the water can be removed by the hot plate. In this experiment, we study two treatments about the channel, which are hydrophilic treatment by the sulfuric acid, and centrifugal treatment, in order to find which treatment can make the catalyst well-distributed. The other test is about the GC test. In this test, we will use different flow rate of the hydrogen and fixed the flow rate of hydrogen to change the flow rate of oxygen. Finally, we use the channel treated by the hydrophilic and centrifugal in the GC test. It concludes that when equivalence ratio=0.7, the performance of the combustor will be the best. It shows that when the hydrogen flow rate=50sccm, the hydrogen conversion of the combustor reaches to 96%and the temperature of the combustor reaches to 170 degrees Celsius.
In the part of mini scale size copper made channel, Ni foam is chosen as the support and PVA is used as binder. Catalyst is loaded by dip coating method. Through using different concentration catalyst slurry, which make the catalyst loading amount be different. 0.5wt%, 1wt% and 2wt% catalyst slurry are prepared in the experiment. The result of different concentration catalyst combination shows that the combination of 0.5wt%,1wt%, and 2wt% is the best. This combination has 98% hydrogen conversion rate and can reach the stable condition in 25 minutes.
