Fuji Electric

A-T Battery Co. is a joint venture between Asahi and Toshiba, to produce Li ion batteries. Fuji Electric and Fuji Film, Hitachi-Maxell (Li-thionyl cells, and now also Li ion cells), Japan Storage Battery Co. (prismatic cells), and Matsushita Battery Co. cover most systems. Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsui, and Sanyo are major producers of the Li - Mn02 system. Sony Energy...

Pressurization in operating PAFC systems demonstrates the economy of scale at work. The IFC 200 kWe and the Fuji Electric 500 kWe PAFC offerings have been designed for atmospheric operation, while larger units operate at pressure. The 11 MWe plant at the Goi Thermal Power Station operated at a pressure of 8.2 atmospheres (38), while a 5 MWe PAFC unit (NEDO / PAFCTRA) operates at slightly less than 6 atmospheres (39). NEDO has three 1 MWe plants, two of which are pressurized while one is atmospheric (39). 

Japan Fuji Electric has developed a 100 kWe on-site system. To date, they have tested a 50 kW power plant using innovative cell design that improves electrolyte management. They tested this stack (154 cells) for about 2,000. They have tested 65, 50 kWe units for a total cumulative operating tome of over 1 million hours. They have tested 3, 500 kWe units for a total of 43,437 hours. Their latest design, FPIOOE, has been shown to have a net AC efficiency of 40.2% (LHV).

Japanese industries including Toshiba, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Fuji Electric, Toyo Tanso, Nuclear Fuel Industries, etc., are developing the HTGR jointly with JAEA. The industrial and public information exchange is supported by the Japan Atomic Industrial Forum (JAIF), the Research Association of High-temperature Gas-cooled Reactor Plant (RAHP), etc. 

Commercialization of amorphous silicon solar cells started in 1980 when Sanyo introduced calculators powered only by small solar-cell panels (total area 5 cm2). Shortly thereafter, Fuji Electric also started producing a-Si H solar cells for calculators. As of 1983, a-Si H photovoltaic devices are produced for several other applications such as photodetectors, power supplies for watches, and NiCd battery chargers. Before the end of 1984 one may see a-Si H solar panels used in larger-scale applications such as irrigation and remote electrification.

In contrast, the glucose analyzers of Yellow Springs Instrument Co. (YSI), Fuji Electric, and Daiichi measure only the true glucose concentrations in plasma and serum samples. Upon direct injection of whole blood into the Fuji instrument the measured values are too low by 13% (Niwa et al., 1981). This trend is confirmed by the correlation equation obtained with the AutoSTAT instrument of Daiichi as applied to whole blood samples ... 

The UA-300 analyzer of Fuji Electric (Japan) uses a uricase membrane fixed to a hydrogen peroxide selective layer (Osawa et al., 1981). Only 20 pi of blood serum is required and a sample throughput of 50-60/h at a CV of 3% is achieved. The correlation with the uricase-catalase method is reflected by the following equation ... 

The a-amylase analyzer of Fuji Electric (Japan) (Osawa et al., 1981) is based on a GOD electrode (see Table 23). The sensor measures the endogenous glucose concentration of the sample and the rate of glucose liberation after addition of maltopentaose and a-glucosidase (maltase).

The GT-MHR - 600 MW(th) concept of a direct cycle HTGR is a joint development by the US General Atomics and Russia s Minatom starting in 1995 and since 1997 supported by the French Framatome and Fuji Electric, Japan. It is planned to be built as modules of 250 - 285 MW(e) each with a prismatic core for commercial electricity generation and, in particular, for the burning of weapon-grade plutonium. A prototype and a plutonium... 

Fuji Electric Advanced Technology of Japan is working on developing similar sized 1 kW residential PEM fuel cell power units. "Its third generation units have an electrical efficiency of 31%, heat recovery efficiency of 42% and an operating life of 10 000 h whilst its pre-production unit, currently under development, will have an electrical efficiency of 32%, heat recovery efficiency of 42% and a targeted 20 000 h lifetime," notes Adamson (2005). Fuji has run several small demonstrations of its fuel cell systems and hopes to commercialize them by 2008 at 12000-16000 each, but with a goal of 2500-4000 by 2015 (Adamson 2005). 

Within the last ten years SOEC development has made big progress which can clearly be seen from the tenfold increase in power density. A declining interest in SOEC could be observed towards the end of the last century, when several of the leading companies terminated their activities, amongst them Domier in Germany and Fuji Electric in Japan. Nevertheless a tremendous increase in activities occurred during the last years with... 

In the 1960s, the use of solid-state polymer electrolytes instead of the liquid electrolytes normally used in alkaline electrolysis led to the development of novel concepts for water electrolysis. The US company General Electric was the first to realize solid polymer electrolyte water electrolysis (SPE) with the aid of the solid polymer electrolyte membrane (Nafion ) developed by DuPont [16]. At the same time, ABB [17, 18] in Switzerland and Fuji Electric [19] in Japan also developed PEM electrolyzers with single electrode areas of up to 2500 cm. These...
