Life Cycle and Criticality Assessment of Platinum Extraction, Usage and Energy Applications discusses past, present and future research works on platinum and its applications to fuel cells. It examines the global trends of platinum mining, processing and its applications, with case studies from the Southern African region. The book offers a brief discussion on different types of fuel cells and a detailed description of platinum-based fuel cell technology. The environmental and socioeconomic impacts of the production chain of fuel cell technology are evaluated using lifecycle assessment, along with a critical assessment of platinum group metals that focuses on all aspects of its sustainability.
