Feature papers represent the most advanced research with significant potential for high impact in the field. A Feature
Paper should be a substantial original Article that involves several techniques or approaches, provides an outlook for
future research directions and describes possible research applications.
Feature papers are submitted upon individual invitation or recommendation by the scientific editors and must receive
positive feedback from the reviewers.
Editor’s Choice articles are based on recommendations by the scientific editors of MDPI journals from around the world.
Editors select a small number of articles recently published in the journal that they believe will be particularly
interesting to readers, or important in the respective research area. The aim is to provide a snapshot of some of the
most exciting work published in the various research areas of the journal.

Proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells experience performance degradation, such as reduction in efficiency and life, as a result of poisoning of platinum catalysts by airborne contaminants. The best method for addressing fuel cell air contamination is by the inclusion of adsorptive filtration with a cathode air filter. In this paper, simulation for chemical adsorption behavior of air filter has been studied, which is based on Fluent. The adsorption of SO2 was simulated in the air filter, which structure was designed and optimized for a 5kW fuel cell stack system. Not only the distribution of SO2 capacity with time in filter could be shown, but also the durability of filter can be evaluated. Furthermore, the velocity of flow and pressure drop of filter also were simulated. The simulation study for chemical adsorption and hydrodynamics in fuel cell cathode air filter help to optimize air filter to be durable and effective.
