Dr Amphlett graduated from the University of Wales, Cardiff, in 1967 with a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry. He has worked in the area of fuel cell systems for the past 25years and has over 200 publications and made numerous presentations in this area. Some of his most significant contributions have been in the area of fuel processing, where his group have developed new reforming catalysts and developed comprehensive kinetic models. These models are now widely used by reformer designers around the world. Another area where important contributions have been made is in analysis and simulation of fuel cell system designs. This work looks at all aspects of fuel cell systems and has helped identify a number of critical design factors. It is widely quoted in the literature and referenced in many patents obtained by companies such as Ballard Power Systems, Daimler-Benz and Northwest Power.
