A combined evaporator and methanol reformer was developed by Park et al. [124] to power a 5 W fuel cell. However, the device was still electrically heated by heating cartridges. Both the evaporator and the reformer channels, which were identical in size, were prepared on metal sheets 200 pm thick by wet chemical etching. The channel dimensions were length 33 mm, width 500 pm and depth 200 pm. Therefore, the channels were completely etched through the sheets and the channel depth could be varied by introducing several of these sheets into the reactor. The flow distribution between the 20 channels of the device was performed by triangular inlet and outlet fields. Both devices had outer dimensions of 70 mm x 40 mm x 30 mm. 

The PenJet system, developed by VMPC, is powered by compressed gas and uses a prefilled, polycarbonate cartridge. It is a single-use, disposable device.
