Well, yes, they'd have to be moving to some lower energy state in order for there to be a voltage. Mostly I was interested in the slightly sulphuric atmosphere fucking with the catalyst.
I wonder if it messes with catalytic converters too.
The issue is the catalyst is "rare" earth metal that is mostly supplied by the fucking Chinese.
Sure, same problem with building enormous solar panels or lithium batteries. It all needs huge amount of expensive and toxic minerals. "Green" energy my ass.
It shouldn't mess with catalytic converters. I think it's the actual membrane that suffers not the catalyst. Green energy is retarded and a talking point of people who don't know the technology. It's alternative energy not green energy.
Ah! Ok. Maybe it's turning into sulphuric acid somehow. I know CO2 can turn into carbolic acid in contact with water.
That's definitely a possibility. The membranes are usually like nafion. So, the addition of a strong acid may remove functional groups.
