Abstract: Fuel cell can be classified into carbon-type,hydrogen-type,nitrogen-type and organic-type according to the feature of fuel and reaction mechanism.Combining with the research advances in fuel cell in recent years,the research status and progress of fuel cell from fuel feature,catalyst material,electrode design and properties are introduced.Finally,the development prospects of fuel cell are also discussed.It is pointed out that the hydrogen fuel cell which uses hydrogen as fuels can generate a high power output and has environmental friendliness because the product is mainly water.The organic-type fuel cell which uses enzyme or microbial as a catalyst can generate electricity abd degrade the organic matters in waste water.
